CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
It is strongly recommended to clean the kettle frequently to avoid
burning excess oil onto the bottom of the inner pot.
After using the popcorn machine, let it cool, and use a
wet cloth to clean the main unit, main body and door.
It is strongly recommended to wash and dry the tray after
each use to avoid any bacteria buildup. The light bulb is replace-
able with a 120 volt/10 watt bulb.
QUICK CLEANING PROCEDURE
Turn the POP control to Off. Pour 4 to 6 ounces of water (NO
detergent is necessary) into inner pot. Switch to POP to boil the
water and let the stirrer turn in order to remove excess oil stuck
on the surface. After cooling, pour out the water into a deep bowl
and discard after about 1 to 2 minutes of boiling. CAUTION: THE
KETTLE IS HOT.
