HOW TO OPERATE
Before first use, clean the inside of the unit by wiping with a moist, non-abrasive
sponge, towel or cloth and then wipe with a non-abrasive dry towel. Wipe down the
inside of the Kettle and be sure it is properly placed in the brackets before starting.
1. First, find a flat surface near an electrical outlet. Make sure your cord is away
from any water source. It is acceptable to use an extension cord if needed.
2. Gather your popcorn making supplies: popcorn, seasonings, bowls or bags for
holding the popcorn, cooking oil, Kernel Measuring Cup and Oil Measuring Spoon.
(Kernel Measuring Cup and Oil Measuring Spoon are included with your unit.)
3. Plug in the appliance while switch is flipped to OFF position.
4. Make sure Kettle is properly secured in support brackets.
5. Make sure Kettle motor is plugged in.
6. Turn appliance ON by flipping the switch on the top of the machine.
Allow the appliance to run 3-5 minutes to heat up Kettle.
7. Turn unit OFF.
8. Use the Oil Measuring Spoon supplied with your ROARING '20S KETTLE
POPCORN MAKER to add 1 tablespoon of your favorite popcorn cooking oil to
the Kettle. For best popping results, it is suggested to use vegetable oil.
9. Add ¼ cup (2-oz.) popcorn kernels to the Kettle using supplied Kernel Measuring Cup.
10. Turn the unit ON and close the door. In no time at all, you will hear the popping begin. Fresh,
hot popcorn will begin to burst out of the flip lids on the Kettle - just like at the theater!
11. Once the kernels have stopped popping, tip the Kettle using the red knob
on the Crank Handle to release the popcorn into the Pull Out Tray.
12. You may use the Pull Out Tray as a serving dish.
13. Turn unit OFF and unplug from electrical outlet. Allow to cool completely,
then follow the instructions in the Cleaning & Maintenance section
to clean your ROARING '20S KETTLE POPCORN MAKER .
