Seasoning Recipes
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, 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 a small amount 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 enoughto collect all water from the kettle).
3. Turn on WARM and KETTLE, then bring water to boil for 1 to 2minutes. 4. Turn off KETTLE and WARM and carefully pour out water into
bowl. [CAUTION: KETTLE AND WATER WILL BE HOT!] 5. Repeat 2 to 3 times for best results.
