USING THE SAUTÉ PRESET
Before pressure cooking, many recipes will benefit from the golden
color, richer flavors and moist results gained from sautéing. This
setting allows cooking over high heat, without the lid.
To sauté your meats or vegetables prior to pressure cooking:
1. Remove the Lid from the unit.
2. Add oil or butter into the inner pot, then add the food.
3. Select the Sauté Preset. Press the Start button.
4. Stir or turn the food as needed until the desired color and
consistency is reached.
5. Press the Cancel button if you want to cancel the sauté preset
before the timer finishes counting down.
6. Allow the unit to rest 2-3 minutes after canceling the Sauté
Preset before beginning to pressure cook. If the unit will not
begin pressure cooking, allow it to cool for a longer period
after sautéing before selecting another Preset.
