Helpful Hints - WestBend AIR CRAZY ON DEMAND Mode D'emploi

cup) of popcorn kernels at one time. The dial will lock after 4 turns, and will not
unlock until after popping has begun. DO NOT put oil, butter, shortening, salt, or
anything other than popcorn into the machine.
Note: If too much popcorn is dispensed into the popping chamber, kernels may
jam the feed door. The popper will not operate until the jam is cleared. To clear
the jam, remove the cover and pour out the kernels in the popping chamber, then
gently wiggle the dispensing dial to release jammed kernels. Be sure to hold the
corn storage lid closed when emptying the popper. Replace the cover and
dispense recommended amount of kernels.
3. Place a 4 quart, or larger, heat-resistant bowl below the popcorn chute to collect
popcorn as it pops. ½ cup of popcorn kernels will yield between 3 and 4 quarts of
popped popcorn. Note: We recommend using a bowl that is at least 5.5" deep
when popping corn.
4. Plug the cord into a 120 volt, AC outlet ONLY. Slide the function switch up to
"POP." Never run the popper without the popcorn or the cover in place.
5. Popcorn will begin to pop, and the cycle will be done within 2-3 minutes. NEVER
dispense additional popcorn kernels during the pop cycle. After popcorn has
completed popping, slide the function switch to "OFF." Popcorn cycle has
completed when there is a gap of 5 seconds between kernels popping. Let the
popper sit, with the popper cover in place, for at least one minute after completion
of the popping cycle. Unpopped kernels may still pop unexpectedly. Use caution
when handling the Air Crazy™ on Demand Popcorn Popper, it will be hot after
popping cycle. Always use hot pads or oven mitts to handle the hot appliance.
6. If you wish to pop an additional batch of popcorn, let the popper cool for five
minutes, then carefully check the screen at the bottom of the popping chamber.
Remove any debris. Use oven mitts or hot pads when handling the hot popper.
Repeat steps 1-5 above. After 2 batches, let popper cool 15 minutes before
additional uses.
 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.
 Single Serve Use Only: If you notice a lot of unpopped kernels when making a
single serving of popcorn, preheat the popper for 15 seconds prior to dispensing
kernels. Do not preheat if you are making more than a single serving (2 tbsp.) or if
you have popped corn within the last 20 minutes.
 Always use fresh popcorn. Dried out, stale, or old popcorn pops poorly as it has
lost its moisture content and may scorch.
 Always use the popcorn stored in the popcorn storage chamber as quickly as
possible. Generally, popcorn will lose its moisture within a month and popping
results may be poor.
 Store any extra popcorn in airtight containers made of glass or plastic to avoid
moisture loss in the kernels. Be sure that the container is stored in a cool place, do
not store in the refrigerator. Most refrigerators contain little moisture and can dry
out kernels, resulting in poor popping.
