CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
Follow these steps to care properly for your Pressure Cooker.
1.
Unplug the base from the outlet. Always wait until the Base and Inner Pot
are completely cool before cleaning.
2.
Use a soft soap with a damp cloth to clean the exterior and interior of the
Base and the Lid. Dry well.
3.
Clean the Inner Pot with hot, soapy water and dry well. Do not use a
scouring pad.
4.
Do not place any parts, including the Lid or the Base in the dishwasher.
5.
Remove the mini cup and rinse. Dry well.
6.
Remove the Seal Wire Support. Holding the center of the Seal Wire
Support, where the wires intersect, gently pull straight up until it releases
from the Peg in the center of the Lid (See Fig. 5).
7.
Remove the Flexible Seal Ring from the Seal Wire Support and clean with
a damp cloth. (Check the Flexible Seal Ring to ensure there are no tears or
cracks.)
8.
Re-install the Flexible Seal Ring around the Seal Wire Support. When in
position, the inner groove of the Flexible Seal Ring will fit securely around
the outer diameter of the Seal Wire Support.
9.
Re-install the Flexible Seal Ring and Seal Wire Support into the Lid. Place
the center of the Seal Wire Support over the Peg in the center of the Lid
and gently push until it slips onto the Peg. Continue pushing the Seal Wire
Support down until the outer Flexible Seal Ring fits snugly onto the inside
of the Lid.
10.
If needed, pop the interior cover for the Filter open and clean any food
particles from it (See Fig. 6). Use a small brush, if desired. Dry well and
replace.
11.
Clean the small seal for the Pressure Release Valve by carefully wiping with
a damp cloth. Dry well.
12.
Store the Inner Pot in the Base. Store in a cool, dry location
