- Pop Popcorn: Keep the "Pot Heater" and "Stirrer" switches on. The popcorn will begin to pop.
- Ketel Kosong: Once popping slows significantly (about 3-5 seconds between pops), turn off the "Pot Heater" and "Stirrer" switches. Carefully pull the red handle to tilt the kettle and empty the popped corn into the warming deck below.
- Melayani: Use the popcorn scoop to serve fresh popcorn. The "Warmer" switch (leftmost switch) can be kept on to maintain popcorn temperature and illuminate the interior.
