4
Important Safeguards
1. READ THE MANUAL.
2. This appliance cooks under pressure; please do
not attempt to remove the lid while the cooker
is operating. Improper use may result in scalding
or injury.
3. Do not touch hot surfaces. Always use the
handles.
4. Do not overfill the cooking pot because the food
such as rice or vegetables may expand during
cooking. Overfilling the cooker may result in
developing more pressure or clogging the vent
pipe.
5. Be aware that certain foods, such as applesauce,
cranberries, pearl barley, oatmeal or other
cereals, split peas, noodles, macaroni, rhubarb,
or spaghetti can foam, froth, and sputter, and
clog the pressure release device (steam vent).
These foods should not be cooked in a pressure
cooker at all.
6. Do not use this cooker for pressure frying with
oil.
7. Always check the pressure release vent for clogs
before use.
