Cleaning & Maintenance
It is recommended that the machine and kettle be cleaned after each use when the popper has cooled.
However, waiting to clean after a few popping sessions is acceptable.
• Make sure all controls (WARM, STIR, KETTLE) are OFF and the popcorn machine is unplugged
and cool.
• Clean all surfaces with a dry or damp cloth or sponge. NEVER immerse the kettle or any other
part of the machine in water.
• Do not use abrasive chemicals or cleaners on any part of the machine.
• Clean and dry thoroughly before any extended storage period.
Advanced Kettle Cleaning Technique
1. After the machine has completely cooled for several hours add up to 3/4 cup of hot water (no
detergents) into the kettle.
2. Place a towel in the bottom of the unit with a large bowl on top (make sure bowl is large enough
to collect all water from the kettle).
3. Turn on STIR and KETTLE, then bring water to boil for 1 to 2 minutes.
4. Turn off STIR and KETTLE, wait a few minutes, then carefully pour out water into bowl.
[CAUTION: KETTLE AND WATER WILL BE HOT!]
5. Repeat 2 to 3 times for best results.
