COOKING
• Place the pressure cooker on the stove on a maximum flame and avoid that the flames go up from the body, the
flame must be covering just the base. In case of electric heating, the diameter of the pressure cooker base can not
be lower than the stove. Place the pressure regulator valve (1) in the position 1.
• In a certain time, the cooker’s pressure will start to grow and the pressure indicator (2) will start to rise. During this
period, some steam may appear through the pressure indicator (Fig. D).
• The pressure will continue growing up until start going out by the pressure regulator valve (1). The cooking times can
be
started to be counted from that moment.
• The pressure indicator (3) give you an orientation about the inner pressure, depending on the ring colours, one or
two
blue rings.
• Reduce the flame of the stove until the steam flows from the valve (1). If you do not reduce the flame, the pressure
will keep growing and the steam could go out intermittently by the security window of the lid (7). The pressure
indicator (3) will show a red ring. Reduce the heat.
OPENING THE COOKER
• Remember the cooker must not be open until there is no pressure inside.
• To open the lid, it is necessary to remove the inner pressure in one of these 3 ways:
1. Take the pressure cooker away from the heat until the steam stops flowing from the valve (1) and the pressure
indicator (2) goes completely down
2. Lift up slowly the valve (1) and turn it (Fig E) to the position . Wait until all the steam has gone out and the pressure
indicator (2) goes completely down.
Attention: Doing this operation the steam flows in an important way by the upper side of the valve. Do not place your
hand neither your face in front of this valve.
3. Place the cooker under the water tap and let the water fall down over the lid (Fig F) until the pressure indicator (2)
goes completely down.
• Once the pressure indicator (2) has completely gone down, press the opening button (3) and turn the lid (4) anticlockwise
until the indication on the lid matches with the indication placed in the handle of the pressure cooker (Fig. G).
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
• You can clean the pressure cooker with water and a washing-up liquid. The pot can be washed in the dishwasher, although
the lid, the lid handle and the sealing ring must not be washed in the dishwasher.
• Remove all the dirt or any food remnants that it could appear in the valve (1). To do that take it out by pulling it upwards
and place it under the tap. If necessary, you can clean it with a needle. Do the same with the valve shaft placed on the lid.
Next place the valve again in its original position.
• Place it also the pressure indicator (2) under the tap.
• In any case clean the possible food remnants that it could remain in any of the valve and in the pressure indicator.
• The water calc may produce small marks in the inner part of the pressure cooker that can be removed easily with some
vinegar. Finally rinse well the pressure cooker.
• Once the cooker is clean, to store it place the lid upside-down so that the silicone ring and the rest of components can
dry completely.
