Place the Multi-Cooker on a flat, level surface.
Place Cooking Pot inside Heating Base. Plug
the Multi-Cooker into a wall outlet. The Multi-
Cooker will beep, and the Display Screen will
illuminate with four dashes (- - - -).
• Place your food and liquid inside the
removable Cooking Pot.
• Place the Lid onto the Multi-Cooker
and align with . To lock, rotate
counterclockwise to the LOCKED
position.
• Using the finger tab, rotate the Steam
Release Valve to the “Seal” position.
• Select the desired cooking function
• Adjust the cooking time and pressure if
necessary.
• Once you have made the desired
adjustments, if any, press START/STOP.
• The Multi-Cooker needs to gain pressure
before pressure cooking can begin. When
the Multi-Cooker is gaining pressure,
“HEAt” will appear on the Display Screen
and the time will not count down. The
amount of time the Multi-Cooker takes to
gain pressure varies according to humidity
and water temperature, but average
pressurization time is 5-30 minutes. When
pressure has been reached, “HEAt” will
disappear on the Display Screen, and the
time will begin to count down.
• After the set cooking time has elapsed,
the Multi-Cooker will beep and will
automatically switch to the KEEP WARM
setting. The Display Screen will therefore
change from the cook time to a new timer
that will count up to 4:00 (4 hours) or until
you press the START/STOP button. After
4 hours in the KEEP WARM setting, the
Multi-Cooker will go into stand-by mode,
and the Display Screen will illuminate with
four dashes (----).
TIP:
• The pressure cooking settings are in the
Cooking Guide table on page 13.
• If the lid is not shut correctly or if the
Steam Release Valve is not in the “Seal”
position, the Multi-Cooker cannot gain
pressure and an Notification message will
appear in the Display Screen. Ensure that
the Sealing Gasket is placed evenly in the
lid. See the Notification Codes chart on
page 22.
• It is common for some steam to release
through the Bobber Valve during the
cooking cycle. This is part of normal
operation of the unit.
Note:
Foam may naturally form when
pressure cooking beans or legumes. Add
a small amount of oil to the water before
cooking to reduce this.
Using the Pressure Cooking functions
Note:
The Multi-Cooker cannot pressure
cook without liquid. Ensure a minimum of
250ml of liquid is used inside the removable
Cooking Pot.
Note:
See the Cooking Guide on page 13
to find the possible time and pressure
adjustments.
Caution:
During cooking, steam will build
up in the Multi-Cooker, so when lifting the
lid use an oven glove to protect your hands.
