CAUTION!
Scalding hazard!
Contact with hot liquids may scald you.
− Extreme caution must be used when moving a pressure
cooker containing hot liquids.
NOTICE!
Risk of damage!
Using the pressure cooker with unsuitable heat sources or failure
to sufficiently fill the pressure cooker may cause damage to the
pressure cooker.
− Only use the heat sources specified in this user manual
(see chapter “Explanation of symbols”).
− Never use the pressure cooker in the oven with the lid on.
The pressure cooker can be used in the oven up to max.
356 °F (180 °C) without the lid.
− Always observe the minimum fill amount for the pressure
cooker.
− Never heat the pressure cooker under pressure unless you
have previously filled the pressure cooker with water.
− When the normal operating pressure is reached, turn the
heat down so all the liquid, which creates the steam, does
not evaporate.
