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.

ON/OFF Light / Popcorn

Wamer Switch

Crank Handle

Stainless Steel Kettle

Popcorn

Warmer

1. First, find a flat surface near an electrical outlet before starting. 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. Make sure Kettle is properly secured in support brackets.

4. Make sure Kettle motor is fully plugged into the outlet located on the bottom side of the kettle. NOTE: Kettle will not heat if plug is not fully inserted.

5. Plug in the appliance while switch is flipped to OFF position.

6. Turn appliance ON by flipping the switch on the top of the machine (see illustration above for location of switches). Allow the appliance to run 3-5 minutes to heat up Kettle.

7. Once Kettle has heated, turn unit OFF before adding ingredients.

8. Use the Oil Measuring Spoon supplied with your OLD FASHIONED MOVIE TIME

POPCORN CART to add 3 tablespoons of your favorite popcorn cooking oil to the Kettle. For every Measuring Cup full of kernels (6 oz.), add 3 spoonfuls

(3 tbsp.) of oil. For best results, light vegetable oil is recommended.

9. Add 6 oz. popcorn kernels to the Kettle using supplied Kernel Measuring Cup.

10. Close the door and turn unit ON. Turn the light switch to the ON position to turn on the light and activate the Popcorn Warmer.

11. 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!
