To set up the Klarstein VOLCANO 10008248, place the unit on a flat, stable surface. Ensure all components are clean and dry. Attach the kettle inside the machine using the provided screws and connect the power cord. Ensure the stirring rod is secured properly before use.
Use high-quality, fresh popcorn kernels for best results. Avoid using flavored or pre-seasoned kernels as they may stick to the kettle.
Unplug the machine and allow it to cool completely. Remove the kettle and wash it with warm soapy water. Use a soft cloth to wipe down the interior and exterior surfaces. Do not immerse the base in water.
If the machine stops working, first check the power connection and ensure the plug is secure. Verify that the outlet is functional. If the problem persists, allow the unit to cool down before attempting to restart it.
Use approximately 1-2 tablespoons of oil per half cup of popcorn kernels. Ensure the oil is evenly distributed over the bottom of the kettle for optimal popping.
It is recommended to add butter and seasonings after the popcorn has been popped to avoid residue build-up in the kettle. Consider using a separate container for mixing.
Ensure an even distribution of oil and kernels in the kettle, and do not exceed the recommended kernel amount. Monitor the popping process and switch off the machine once popping slows significantly.
Check that the stirring rod is functioning properly and not obstructed. Make sure the kettle is preheated before adding kernels, and that the lid is closed during operation.
A small amount of smoke can occur if oil or residue is burnt. Clean the kettle thoroughly after each use. If excessive smoke occurs, check for leftover debris or oil buildup.
Regular cleaning after each use is essential. Perform a deeper clean monthly, inspecting the electrical components for wear and ensuring all parts are functioning correctly.
