Using the electric pressure cooker

Before first use

Remove all packaging materials from the appliance.

Take out all the accessories from the inner pot.

Clean the parts of the electric pressure cooker thoroughly before 

using it for the first time (see chapter ‘Cleaning and Maintenance’).

Note

 

Make sure all parts are completely dry before you start using the electric 

pressure cooker.

Preparations before cooking (fig.2)

Before using the electric pressure cooker to cook food, you need to 

follow below preparations:

Hold the lid handle and turn it anti-clockwise until the top lid 

cannot move any more, then lift up the top lid.

Take out the inner pot from the electric pressure cooker and put 

the pre-washed food ingredients in the inner pot.

Wipe the outside of the inner pot dry, then put the inner pot back 

into the electric pressure cooker.

Place the top lid onto the electric pressure cooker and turn it 

clockwise to close it. When the top lid is properly closed, you will 

hear a “click” sound.

Turn the pressure regulator to the sealed position (

seal

).

Note

 

Make sure the sealing ring is properly assembled around the inside of the top lid.

 

Make sure the pressure regulator valve and floating valve are clean and 

not blocked.

 

Make sure the outside of the inner pot is dry and clean, and that there is 

no foreign residue on the heating element.

 

Make sure the inner pot is in proper contact with the heating element.

Cooking food (fig.3)

Note

 

Do not fill the inner pot with less than 1/3 or more than 2/3 full of food 

and liquid.

 

For food that expands during cooking, do not fill the inner pot with more 

than 1/2 full of food and liquid.

 

For rice cooking, follow the water level indications on the inside of the 

inner pot. You may also adjust the water level for different types of rice 

and your own preference. Do not exceed the maximum quantities 

indicated on the inside of the inner pot.

 

Before cooking, make sure that the floater falls down naturally.

Follow the steps in “preparations before cooking”.

Put the plug in the power socket, then turn the power switch to 

the ON position (

The electric pressure cooker starts heating and pressurizing.

When the electric pressure cooker reaches the working pressure:

the electric pressure cooker enters pressure keeping mode.

When the pressure keeping time has elapsed, the electric pressure 

cooker automatically switches to keep warm mode.

The floater drops when the pressure is released sufficiently.

Hold the top lid handle and turn it anti-clockwise until it cannot 

move any more, then lift it up.

Note

 

When cooking soup or viscous liquid, do not release pressure by turning 

the pressure regulator to the steam vent position, otherwise liquid might 

spurt from the pressure regulator valve. Wait until the pressure is naturally 

released and the floater has dropped to open the top lid.

 

The pressure keeping timer will start counting down when the working 

pressure has been reached.

 

You can use the electric pressure cooker to bake food such as vegetable, 

meat, seafood, chop and lobster without adding water in the inner pot. 

When doing so, make sure to turn the pressure regulator to the baking 

position (

bake

).

 

After the cooking is finished and the pressure is released, turn the power 

switch to the off position "

" and unplug the electric pressure cooker to 

turn off the keep warm function or when not in use.

Tip

 

Choose the desired pressure keeping time according to the 

time indicated around the control knob. You can also adjust the 

pressure keeping time for different types of food and your own 

preference.

Assembling and disassembling the pressure 

regulator (fig.4 & 5)

Warning

 

Do not disassemble the pressure regulator valve during cooking. Always 

unplug the electric pressure cooker and wait until the pressure has been 

released sufficiently to do so.
