Preparing to Cook
NOTE:
• Thoroughly wash the inner pot before each use.
• The minimum amount of ingredients needed to cook in the pressure cooker is ⅕ of
the capacity of the inner pot, which is roughly 1 cup.
1. Open the lid and remove the inner pot from the pressure cooker.
2. Prepare food according to recipe directions and place food and liquids into the
pot. Food and water should not exceed ⅘ height of the pot. If the food easily
expands in water, do not let it exceed ⅗ height of the inner pot.
3. Before placing pot back into the pressure cooker, be sure to wipe down the
bottom of the pot and the surface of the heating plate with a dry cloth. Make sure
the unit is off when placing the pot back into the pressure cooker housing.
4. Place the pot back into the pressure cooker and close the lid. Turn the lid handle
counterclockwise so that is lined up with the white mark at the top of the
control panel.
