IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS When using an electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following: 1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS. 2. Unplug from outlet when not in use and

before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.

3. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles. 4. To protect against electric shock, do not

immerse cord, plugs, or this appliance in water or other liquids.

5. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.

7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.

8. Do not use outdoors. 9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table

or counter, or touch hot surfaces. 10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric

burner, or in a heated oven.

11. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.

12. Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn control to off, then remove plug from wall outlet.

13. Do not use appliance for other than intended household use.

14. Never steam food in the popping plate. 15. A popper that is plugged into an outlet should

not be left unattended. 16. CAUTION burns can result from misuse of

this product. Read instruction manual for proper operating procedure.

17. Extreme caution must be used when unloading popcorn. Always turn the unit over a countertop so that residual hot oil or water running out will not cause burns.

18. Do not operate your appliance in an appliance garage or under a wall cabinet. When storing in an appliance garage always unplug the unit from the electrical outlet. Not doing so could create a risk of fire, especially if the appliance touches the walls of the garage or the door touches the unit as it closes.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY SPECIAL CORDSET INSTRUCTIONS

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 1. Place the base of the appliance on a clean,

flat surface. Caution: Do not let water or any other liquid drip into the base.

2. Attach mixing paddle. The mixing paddle must be attached before the popping plate is connected to the base. To do so, hold the stirring rod in place. Fit the mixing paddle on top of the center hub by aligning the embossed lines on both the mixing paddle and center hub. You then turn the mixing paddle clockwise to secure. You will hear a click to know that it is locked in place. (see fig. 1)

3. Popping plate must lock securely to base before unit will operate. Grip the locking levers up toward the handles of popping plate, which will open the lock. Once locking levers are released, the popping plate should be locked to the base.

NOTE: The unit will not operate unless the popping plate is positioned correctly. Align the plate until it clicks into place with the tips of the arrows lining up. Place the plate on the base (handles of popping plate should be centered just above the side handles on base, see Fig. 2).

4. Add approximately 2 teaspoons of cooking oil to popping plate (see Tips & Hints, next page, for recommended measurements). We recommend using vegetable or canola oil.

5. Add kernels to popping plate. We recommend 13 cup of kernels, especially if using premium popcorn. The measuring cup provided is 13-cup capacity, and also clearly marked for cup (see Tips & Hints, next page).

6. Place the inverted bowl on top of the popping plate.

7. Plug the power cord into a standard electrical outlet.

8. Slide the power switch to Pop. 9. The mixing paddle will rotate and plate will

begin to heat up.

10. If you are not adding flavoring (see step 11), when the popcorn has finished popping, turn the switch to Off, which turns the heater off, and proceed to step 12.

11. To add flavoring, slide the power button to Mix. Add butter and thin liquid toppings, such as olive oil and soy sauce, through the shaker side; add thicker liquids, like caramel and chocolate through the slotted side. Wait 30 to 60 seconds before adding heated or melted material. After your topping has been mixed in (approx. 30 to 45 seconds), slide the switch to Off and proceed to step 12.

12. Press the cover on the bowl, grasp the locking levers underneath the bowl handles and squeeze them together (see Fig. 3). Lift the popping plate off the bowl by its handles, and immediately return the plate to the base to cool (see Fig. 4).

CAUTION: After popping, the plate is EXTREMELY HOT. Do not put fingers near the plate. After turning the bowl over to serve, simply return popping plate directly to the base. A slight odor or smoke may be evident as materials used in manufacturing are burned off internal parts. This is normal. 13. Rotation shaft continues turning until unit is

switched off manually.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Clean your popcorn maker after every use. Never immerse the base of the unit in water or let water drip inside. Do not use benzene, scrubbing brushes or chemical cleaners, as these will damage the unit. Use only a damp cloth to clean exterior of the base.

TIPS & HINTS POPCORN AMOUNTS

Kernels Vegetable Oil Popped Popcorn

cup 1 teaspoons Approximately 6 cups popped

popcorn

13 cup 2 teaspoons Approximately 8 cups popped

popcorn

cup ( cup x 2 ) 1 tablespoon

Approximately 10 cups popped

popcorn

Note: Premium popcorns have larger kernels, resulting in a higher yield of popcorn. If using premium popcorn, the yield of popped popcorn will be about 1 cup greater than stated above. Note: DO NOT use more than 13 cup of unpopped kernels when using premium popcorn. The seasoning possibilities for popcorn are endless. Just add your favorite seasoning combined with melted butter and pour through flavor chute as the finished popcorn is mixing. Note: Serving bowl should not be put into oven. It is very important to use fresh popcorn. If your popcorn is old, the kernels will not fully pop and/ or it may take a long time for them to pop.

The Cuisinart EasyPop Plus makes delicious caramel popcorn for you and your family. We provide two great recipes for you to try. Due to the high temperature of caramel, there are certain guidelines that need to be followed: Always use caution when making caramel and

then pouring into your popper. Always use a candy thermometer to ensure your

caramel is at the proper temperature. Caramel should not exceed 300F when pouring

into the flavor dispenser of the EasyPop Plus. We recommend adding liquid such as cream to

the caramel to slightly cool to the proper pouring temperature.

Do not exceed 2/3 cup of caramel for pouring into your popcorn maker.

Always use the slotted side of the flavor dispenser for pouring caramel.

Butter/seasoning ratios for popcorn 2 tablespoons melted butter for cup unpopped kernels, and a minimum of 1 teaspoon of seasoning

3 tablespoons melted butter for 13 cup unpopped kernels, and a minimum of 2 teaspoons of seasoning

4 tablespoons melted butter for cup unpopped kernels, and a minimum of 2 teaspoons to a tablespoon of seasoning

Note: The amount of seasoning depends on the intensity of the ingredients you are using it is important to let your taste and our recipes be your guide.

When adding ingredients through the flavor dispenser, we recommend adding thin liquids like oils and melted butter through the shaker side, and thicker liquids like caramel through the slotted side. Some larger items, such as nuts, grated cheese and thick sauces like pesto, should be added directly through the top of the bowl with the flavor chute removed. (Add dry ingredients, like salt and spices, last, through the unused side.) On caramel and other items requiring melting or heating, allow 30 to 60 seconds before adding.
