INTRODUCTION

Thank You for purchasing the Old Fashioned Movie Time Popcorn Maker™! This nostalgic

looking popcorn maker resembles the late 1800's to early 1900's theater style popcorn

machines.

The Old Fashioned Movie Time Popcorn Maker™! is only designed in appearance to look

like the nostalgic style popcorn makers, however, it is a technologically advanced hot air

popcorn popper that pops more kernels than other popcorn makers.

The Old Fashioned Movie Time Popcorn Maker™! uses air to pop the kernels which results

in more perfectly popped popcorn and less kernels to bite into.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

The Old Fashioned Movie Time Popcorn Maker™! is easy to use. Just follow these simple

instructions.

After Taking the Unit Out of the Box

Your Old Fashioned Movie Time Popcorn Maker™! is already fully assembled.

Before first use, lift the top body housing off of the body and wipe clean the inside

of the unit with a non-abrasive moist sponge or a non-abrasive towel and then

wipe with a non-abrasive dry towel.

ENGLISH 3

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

After Taking the Unit Out of the Box (Continued)

After cleaning the inside, put the top housing back on to the base.

Now you are ready to enjoy freshly popped popcorn in your Old Fashioned Movie Time

Popcorn Maker™!

First find a stable place near an electrical outlet before starting. (Make sure you cord is

away from any water source. If needed, it is acceptable to use an extension cord).

1. Completely fill, level to the top of the kernel cap on the top of the unit, with your

favorite popcorn.

2. IMPORTANT - NEVER under fill or over fill the kernel cap. Under filling the cap can

cause less kernels to pop and more hard kernels to come out ofunit during popping.

3. Over filling can cause popped popcorn to burn and smoke as it is over filling the

popping chamber.

4. Pour entire cap of kernels down the hole on the top of the unit until cap is empty. (see

photo 1)

5. Place cap back in it’s place

6. Place a bowl or dish under the popcorn opening to allow popcorn to fill the bowl.

(see photo 3)

NOTE: When selecting a bowl, use a bowl that is large enough and will fit under the

popcorn chute. Some bowls may not fit because of the wheels. If needed, put a small cup

or smaller bowl under the bowl intended to collect the popcorn to prop the bowl up to the

height of the chute.

7. Plug unit into outlet.

8. Turn unit ON (see photo 2) and in just minutes, you will have freshly popped popcorn

popped to perfection!

9. When kernels have fully popped, turn unit OFF. You can tip the popcorn maker

forward at this point to make sure you get all the popcorn out of the machine.

10. Eat popcorn as is or top with your favorite toppings such as:

Salt and Pepper

Seasoning Salts

Butter or Margarine

Caramel

Worcestershire Sauce

Food Coloring for fun

Parmesan Salt …and more!.

so unit does not overheat and works effectively.

RECIPES AND TIPS

SELECTING THE RIGHT POPCORN

The Old Fashioned Movie Time Popcorn Maker™! is designed for all regular and premium

brands of popcorn. Also, yellow popcorn generally pops larger than white popcorn. (Organic

popcorn is not highly recommended for this machine).

Please note to use fresh popcorn as older dried popcorn can scorch and cause smoking in

the unit.

If your popcorn is old and dried out, you can freshen it by putting the kernels into an air tight

container leaving some space for shaking. Put in 1 teaspoon of water for each cup of

popcorn. Shake twice a day for 3 days leaving the container in the refrigerator. Then the

kernels should be fresh again.

You can enjoy any flavor popcorn - in your own home - with The Old Fashioned Movie

Time Popcorn Maker™!

Here are some sample ideas/recipes to get you started.

NOTE:

NEVER put any seasoning or oil in the popcorn popping chamber.

removed from The Old Fashioned Movie Time Popcorn Maker™!
