11. 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

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.

recommend 1⁄3 cup of kernels, especially
if using premium popcorn. The
1ꢀ. 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.
Serving bowl – The serving bowl is fully
immersible and dishwasher-safe. Do not
clean plastic serving bowl with the scourer
side of a sponge.
Popping plate – Popping plate is fully
immersible and dishwasher-safe. Do not use
metal utensils as these will damage the
surface. The popping plate and stirring
rod stay assembled for cleaning.
Do not put the popping plate in the dishwasher
until it’s cool.

SEASONING SUGGESTIONS
Cheese
Taco seasoning
Chili powders
Hot sauce
Vegetable
Popped
Popcorn
Kernels
Oil
Packaged sauces (i.e. Alfredo)
Soy sauce
Italian seasoning and herbs
Approximately
6 cups popped
popcorn
¼ cup
1½ teaspoons
ꢀ teaspoons
1 tablespoon
Approximately
8 cups popped
popcorn
Butter/Seasoning ratios for popcorn
1
⁄
3
cup
ꢀ tablespoons melted butter for ¼ cup
unpopped kernels, and a minimum of 1
teaspoon of seasoning
3 tablespoons melted butter for 1⁄3 cup
unpopped kernels, and a minimum of ꢀ
teaspoons of seasoning
Approximately
10 cups popped
popcorn
½ cup
4 tablespoons melted butter for ½ cup
unpopped kernels, and a minimum of ꢀ½
teaspoons to a tablespoon of seasoning
The amount of seasoning depends on the
intensity of the ingredients you are using –
it is important to let your taste be your guide.
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 1⁄3 cup of
unpopped kernels when using premium
popcorn.
The seasoning possibilities for popcorn are
endless. Just add melted butter and your
favorite seasonings to a bowl of popcorn.
With toppings added, popped popcorn
will become much crisper and the flavors
become more intense if it is heated with
desired toppings in a 300°F oven for about 15
to ꢀ0 minutes before serving. For best results,
heat it on a baking sheet that you have lined
with foil and sprayed with cooking oil.
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.

This warranty does not cover any damage caused by
accident, misuse, shipment or other ordinary household
use.
WARRANTY
LIMITED THREE-YEAR
WARRANTY
This warranty excludes all incidental or consequential
damages. Some states do not allow the exclusion or
limitation of these damages, so they may not apply to you.
This warranty is available to consumers only. You are a
consumer if you own a Cuisinart® EasyPop™ Popcorn
Maker that was purchased at retail for personal, family
or household use. Except as otherwise required under
applicable law, this warranty is not available to retailers or
other commercial purchasers or owners.
CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY:
California law provides that for In-Warranty Service,
California residents have the option of returning a
nonconforming product (A) to the store where it was
purchased or (B) to another retail store which sells
Cuisinart products of the same type.
We warrant that your Cuisinart® EasyPop™ Popcorn Maker
will be free of defects in materials and workmanship under
normal home use for 3 years from the date of original
purchase.
The retail store shall then, at its discretion, either repair
the product, refer the consumer to an independent repair
facility, replace the product, or refund the purchase price
less the amount directly attributable to the consumer’s
prior usage of the product. If the above two options do
not result in the appropriate relief to the consumer, the
consumer may then take the product to an independent
repair facility if service or repair can be economically
accomplished. Cuisinart and not the consumer will be
responsible for the reasonable cost of such service, repair,
replacement, or refund for nonconforming products under
warranty.
We suggest you complete and return the enclosed product
registration card promptly to facilitate verification of the
date of original purchase. However, return of the product
registration card does not eliminate the need for the
consumer to maintain the original proof of purchase in
order to obtain the warranty benefits. In the event that you
do not have proof of purchase date, the purchase date for
purposes of this warranty will be the date of manufacture.
If your Cuisinart® EasyPop™ Popcorn Maker should prove
to be defective within the warranty period, we will repair
it, or if we think necessary, replace it. To obtain warranty
service, simply call our toll-free number
California residents may also, according to their
preference, return nonconforming products directly to
Cuisinart for repair, or if necessary, replacement, by calling
our Consumer Service Center toll-free at 1-800-7ꢀ6-0190.
1-800-7ꢀ6-0190 for additional information from our
Customer Service Representatives, or send the defective
product to Customer Service at Cuisinart, 150 Milford
Road, East Windsor, NJ 085ꢀ0.
Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of the repair,
replacement, and shipping and handling for such products
under warranty.
To facilitate the speed and accuracy of your return, please
enclose $10.00 for shipping and handling of the product.
Please pay by check or money order (California residents
need only supply proof of purchase and should call
1-800-7ꢀ6-0190 for shipping instructions).
BEFORE RETURNING YOUR
CUISINART® PRODUCT
If you are experiencing problems with your Cuisinart®
product, we suggest that you call our Cuisinart® Service
Center at 1-800-7ꢀ6-0190 before returning the product
serviced. If servicing is needed, a Representative can
confirm whether the product is under warranty and direct
you to the nearest service location.
NOTE: For added protection and secure handling of any
Cuisinart® product that is being returned, we recommend
you use a traceable, insured delivery service. Cuisinart
cannot be held responsible for in-transit damage or
for packages that are not delivered to us. Lost and/or

be sure to include your return address, daytime phone
number, description of the product defect, product model

Important: If the nonconforming product is to be serviced
by someone other than Cuisinart's Authorized Service
Center, please remind the servicer to call our Consumer
Service Center at 1-800-7ꢀ6-0190 to ensure that the
