IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
To prevent personal injury or property damage, read and follow all instructions
and warnings.
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be
followed including:
•
Read all instructions.
•
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
•
To protect against fire, electric shock, and injury to persons do not immerse
cord, plugs, or other electric parts in water or other liquids.
•
Close supervision is necessary when this appliance is used by or near children.
•
Always unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool
before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning.
•
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, after the appliance
malfunctions, or has been damaged in any manner. This appliance has no
user serviceable parts.
•
Return appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination,
repair, or adjustment.
•
The use of accessory attachments not recommended by Focus Electrics may
cause fire, electric shock, or injury.
•
Do not use this appliance outdoors.
•
Do not let cord hang over the edge of the table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
•
Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
•
To disconnect, turn any control to “OFF,” then remove plug from wall outlet.
•
Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
•
Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or
other hot liquids.
•
Extreme caution must be used when unloading popcorn. Always turn the unit
away from you and over a countertop so that residual hot oil or water running
out will not cause burns.
•
A popper that is plugged into an outlet should not be left unattended.
•
Do not attempt to repair this appliance yourself.
•
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
•
Longer extension cords are available, but care must be exercised in their use.
While use of an extension cord is not recommended, if you must use one,
ensure that the marked electrical rating of the extension cord is equal to or
greater than that of the appliance. If the plug is of the grounded type, the
extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord. To avoid pulling, tripping
or entanglement, position the extension cord so that it does not hang over the
edge of the counter, table or other area where it can be pulled on by children or
tripped over.
•
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug
in any way.

•
Do not use an outlet or extension cord if the plug fits loosely or if the outlet or
extension cord feels hot.
•
Avoid contact with moving parts.
•
Never leave appliance unattended when it is plugged into an outlet.
•
Do not leave appliance plugged in when it is not being used.
•
“ON/OFF” switch must always be “OFF” when the popping plate is removed.
•

corn and oil before operating.
•
For household use only.

Warning: DO NOT USE if the glass heating element is cracked or broken.
“ON/OFF” switch must always be “OFF” ( O ) when the popping plate is
removed.
1. Place the base on a dry, level surface, away from any edge. Set the popping
plate with stir rod onto the heating base. The handles of the popping plate
should rest snugly over the handles on the heating base and the connector fit
completely over the shaft in the heating base. Make sure that the popping plate
with stir rod is completely seated in the base.
2. Put vegetable oil and corn into the popping plate. Do not substitute butter,
margarine, shortening, or lard for vegetable oil as these will burn or smoke
excessively. Do not add more corn or oil than recommended. Specialty oils
may be used, but some experimentation may be necessary to find the best
popping results and flavor you prefer. Do not use more than 3 tablespoons of
any oil.

2 1 tbsp. Cup 1 tbsp.
4 2 tbsp. Cup 2 tbsp.
6 3 tbsp. 1 Cup 3 tbsp.
**If using a gourmet/premium grade of corn, use less than amount of corn
specified. To yield 2 quarts of popcorn, use ¼ cup corn; for 4 quarts of popcorn,
use ½ cup; for 6 quarts of popcorn, use ¾ cup.
3. Place the cover on the popping plate, making sure the handles of the cover fit
securely into the handles of the popping plate. If buttered corn is desired, divide
recommended amount of refrigerated butter into 6 equal-sized pats and place in
a single layer in the butter well. (If unrefrigerated butter is used, add to butter
well after the first kernel of corn pops.) Popcorn will be buttered as it pops. If
unbuttered corn is desired, do not add butter to the butter well. DO NOT USE
BUTTER CAP DURING THE POPPING PROCESS. Put the cap on AFTER
popping is complete.
4. Plug cord into a 120 volt, AC outlet only. Press the “ON/OFF” switch to “ON”
( l ). The stir rod will rotate as long as the corn popper is on. Do not shake
popper during popping cycle. In 4 to 6 minutes the popping cycle will be
completed. Turn “ON/OFF” switch to “OFF” ( O ).
5. If butter is not completely melted in butter well, use a pastry brush to push any
remaining butter through the buttering holes. Snap butter cap securely onto
butter well. This cap must be on the cover before the popping plate is inverted.
6. Grasp handles firmly, lift popping plate and cover off of the heating base, move
assembly away from the heating base, then turn upside down. Lift popping
plate away from the cover, lifting away from you, and be cautious of escaping
steam. Place the popping plate on a wire rack to cool or place back into heating
base in proper operating position. Note: Do not place hot popping plate on to
the heating base in any way other than proper operating position as damage to
the appliance may occur.
Tip: Popcorn is done when there is a 1-2 second pause between pops or if the
cover has lifted or is turning. To avoid scorching, follow step 6 as soon as
popping cycle is complete.
7. Popcorn is now ready for serving. Sprinkle popcorn with salt if desired.
Popping Additional Batches of Popcorn - If you plan to pop more corn
immediately, transfer popcorn from serving cover to another serving bowl. Follow
steps 2 through 6 above.
• A small amount of smoke and/or odor may occur upon heating due to the
release of manufacturing oils – this is normal.
• Some minor expansion/contraction sounds may occur during heating and
cooling – this is normal.

Clean Popper After Every Use - Your corn popper should be cleaned after each
use. Always allow popper to cool completely before cleaning.

discolor. To remove discoloration, use a soft cloth saturated with lemon juice or
vinegar and rub over finish. Then wipe the finish with a damp cloth and dry. If
desired, the popping plate with stir rod may be washed in an automatic dishwasher.
The stir rod is NOT removable.

base, if necessary. Wait until the heating base has cooled completely before wiping.
