PRIOR TO FIRST USE
Before using the popcorn maker for the ﬁ rst time,

remove all packaging and clean the appliance as

described in “Cleaning”.

USE
The popcorn maker pops the corn using hot

air. Therefore you should never use microwave

popcorn or ready-mixed packs of popping corn

containing oil/fat in this appliance. Never place

oil/fat, salt or anything else in the popper with the

corn.

• Place the upper section (3) on the base (6), so

the opening (5) is opposite the side with the

on/off button (7).

• Fill the measuring cup (1) with popping corn

(approx. 40 g).

• Pour the corn through the ﬁ lling funnel (2), so

it falls down into the popper (4).
