4. Select cooking time.
You may use the "Adjust" key (except the “Manual”
and “Rice” functions) to adjust cooking time. Press
the "Adjust" key repeatedly to change between
“Normal”, “More" and “Less" modes which will light
up on the display.
If necessary, change the cooking time with “+” and “-
“. Press and hold the “+” or “-“ key for faster changes.
The built-in cooking time is suitable for most type of
food. Please use the cooking time table in the recipe
book to determine the appropriate cooking time
based on the food type, the quantity of food and your texture preference.
5. Cooking starts automatically in 10 seconds after the last key press.
Three audible beeps will sound to indicate the cooking process has begun. The LED
display shows "On" indicating that the pre-heating state is in progress. Please note:
depending on the food content, the quantity and its temperature (frozen or not), the
preheat cycle may vary from 10 to 40 minutes.
As the pressure increases inside the cooker, it is perfectly normal for traces of steam to
escape from the float valve until the float valve pops up.
Once the cooker reaches working pressure, the LED display changes from “On" to the
programmed cooking time. The cooking time counts down to indicate the remaining
time in minutes. During this pressurized state, you should not see any steam leaking out
anywhere from the lid. However, from time to time, you may see a small amount of
steam coming out from the pressure release handle. This is perfectly normal.
During the cooking operation, the cooker may make soft clicking sounds. This comes
from the normal operation of the heating element switching on and off.
At any time, you can cancel the cooking program in progress and return to standby
mode by pressing the “Keep-Warm/Cancel” key.
6. When the pressure cooking cycle finishes, the cooker
beeps and automatically goes into the "Keep Warm" cycle,
called Auto “Keep Warm” Cycle. The LED display shows an
“L” on the first digit, such as "L0:02", to indicate the “Keep
Warm” cycle and time duration. The clock counts up for 10
hours. If the 10 hour Auto “Keep Warm” cycle finishes, the
cooker goes into standby state.
It is not recommended to leave cooked rice in “Keep-
Warm” state for too long as it may affect the texture
of the rice.
7. To serve food, press “Keep-Warm/Cancel” to stop the
keep-warm cycle and open the lid according to the “Safe Lid Opening” section of this manual.
When opening the lid, the inner pot may be suctioned to the lid due to vacuum effect
caused by contraction of cooling air. Please turn the pressure release handle to
“Venting” to let in air to release the vacuum.
