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 Switches
Crank Handle
Stainless Steel Kettle
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 plugged in.
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 with CONCESSION STAND to add
3 tablepoons 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 6oz popcorn kernels to the Kettle using supplied Kernel Measuring Cup.
10. Close the door and turn unit ON. 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. Fill the Concession Stand shelves with your favorite candy and treats.
