SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Safety Valve/Pressure Indicator
– Fig. 3
The safety valve also acts as a pressure indi-
cator. While pressure in the pressure cooker
is building up, the RED pressure indicator
pops up and becomes visible. This locks the
pressure cooker. When the safety valve is
up, you should never attempt to force open
the pressure-cooking lid.
If the pressure indicator is not visible, the
pressure cooker is no longer under pressure.
It can then be opened. If for any unexpected
reason the pressure regulator valve does not
release steam as it should, the safety valve
will remain in the up position to let you know.
Safety Window
– Fig. 4
The safety window in the top of the lid is an
additional safety element. If there is exces-
sive pressure in the pressure cooker, the
sealing ring forces its way out through this
window allowing steam to escape.
Fill/Qt. Scale Markings
– Fig. 5
These markings indicate the minimum and
maximum filling levels depending on what is
being cooked, so that unintentional overfill-
ing can be avoided. Never cook with pot
over 2/3 full. Never cook without liquid.
Sealing Ring
– Fig. 6
Sealing rings are subject to wear. Replace
when necessary.
Important: You should only use a
genuine B/R/K sealing ring.
