This manual covers the 16oz. Citation Popcorn Machine, model number 2001, 2001BN, and 2001ST.
Installation Instructions
Inspection of Shipment:
Unpack all cartons and check thoroughly for any damage that may have occurred during transit. Damage claims should be filed immediately with the transportation company. Gold Medal is not responsible for damage that occurs in transit.
Setup:
Your new Citation Popcorn Machine is completely assembled and tested at the factory. Remove all packing material and tape before starting operation.
Electrical Requirements:
The following power supply must be provided:
Model No. 2001 – 2001BN – 2001ST: 1920 Watts, 120 VAC, 16 Amps, 60 Hz.
Your electrician must furnish sufficient current for proper machine operation. We recommend this popper be connected to a dedicated 20 amp circuit protected line. Failure to wire properly will void the warranty and can result in damage to the heat elements, light, motor and etc.
It is Gold Medal Products Company’s recommendation that this machine be plugged directly into a wall outlet. The use of extension cords is not recommended due to safety reasons and the popper’s performance will be sacrificed/reduced.
Before You Plug In Machine:
1.Make sure that the wall outlet can accept the three (3) prong grounded plug on the power supply cord.
2.The wall outlet must have the proper polarity. If in doubt, have a competent electrician inspect the outlet and correct if necessary.
3.DO NOT use a three (3) prong grounded to two (2) prong un-grounded adapter.

Amount of Popcorn and Oil:
The Citation popper is equipped with a sixteen ounce corn measure cup. Gold Medal Products Company recommends the use of flavored and colored coconut oil. Coconut oil does not leave black deposits in the kettle like other oils.
Corn Charge: |
16 Oz. (473 ml) |
Oil Charge: |
4-5 ounces |
Flavacol (Salt): |
1 ½ Tablespoon (20 cc) (Use the supplied Salt Scoop) |
Popping Instructions:
1.Turn both the KETTLE HEAT and KETTLE MOTOR switches ON.
2.Test pop three (3) kernels of corn and one ounce (1 Oz.) of popping oil. When the kernels pop, the kettle is ready for use.
3.Load both a full corn/oil charge and Flavacol Seasoning Salt into the kettle. Close the lids.
4.When the corn has finished popping, gently dump the kettle.
5.Repeat the cycle, starting with step number 3, until the desired amount of popcorn has been achieved. Always pop 3 to 5 consecutive batches for the best popcorn.
On the final kettle of corn, it is a good idea to turn the KETTLE HEAT switch OFF just as the lids are forced open by the popping corn. This procedure saves electricity, and reduces smoke/odor from any oil residue that remains after you have finished popping.
