− Replace parts showing signs of wear regularly. Parts that
are clearly discolored, have split or show other signs of
damage or do not fit correctly must be replaced with
original spare parts.
− Use only original spare parts. It is important to use only
pots and lids of the same model.
− Be aware that certain foods, such as applesauce, cranberries,
pearl barley, oatmeal or other cereals, split peas, noodles,
macaroni, rhubarb, or spaghetti can foam, froth and sputter
and clog the pressure release device (steam vent). These
foods should not be cooked in a pressure cooker.
− You should never leave the pressure cooker unattended
during operation.
− When reducing pressure quickly with the pressure regulator,
always keep your hands, head and body well away from the
hot steam. You could injure yourself as steam escapes.
− During cooking, bursts of steam will be given off vertically
from center of the pressure regulator. Do not come into
contact with the hot steam.
− Do not touch the pressure regulator when in use. Only
turn it to release the pressure after finished cooking. When
releasing steam, keep hands and body out of the way of
the steam.
− Always check the silicone sealing ring is correctly positioned
before use.
− When the normal operating pressure is reached, turn the
heat down so all the liquid, which creates steam, does not
evaporate.
− The use of accessory attachments not recommended by
the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
− Always attach plug to the base unit first, then plug the
cord into a wall outlet. To disconnect, turn any control to
“off”, then remove plug from wall outlet.
