MANUAL PRESSURE COOK MODE
Pressure Cooking is a method of cooking
food in a small amount of liquid with a gasket
sealed lid that retains steam inside and
builds pressure. It is the increase in pressure
that raises temperature of the liquid and
steam inside to well above boiling point and
therefore allows food to be cooked up to 70%
faster. This means less energy is consumed
and you will enjoy substantial savings in both
time and cost. Because pressure cooked
foods require very little cooking liquid, more
vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients
are retained, and the natural flavours are
enhanced.
1. To select the manual pressure cook mode,
press and hold the PRESSURE COOK
button
for 2 seconds.
2. Adjust the cooking pressure by using
the PRESSURE/TEMPERATURE (+/-)
buttons. Pressure can be adjusted from
10 kPa (LOW) to 80 kPa (HIGH).
3. The figure on the LED screen indicates
the preset cooking time for the selected
setting. Adjust the cooking time by using
the TIME (+/-) buttons (next to the 4 digit
display) to reduce the cooking time
or increase the cooking time. Time can
be adjusted up to 2 hours.
4. Press the STEAM RELEASE button
to select between ‘NATURAL’, ‘AUTO
QUICK’, and PULSE steam release.
5. Place food into the removable cooking
bowl. Ensure there is at least 1L of
combined food and liquid in the bowl.
6. Close the lid and turn the lid knob
clockwise to lock into place. The cooker
alert will sound when the lid has been
locked.
7. Ensure the pressure release valve is
placed on the lid in the closed position.
8. Press the START button to commence
cooking. The START/CANCEL button will
illuminate orange, ‘PREHEAT’ will be lit.
NOTE
It is normal for the cooker to release small
bursts of steam as it stabilises.
9. If the lid has not been locked correctly,
‘LID’ indicator will flash and the audio
alert will beep, cooking will be paused
until the lid is in the correct position.
Turn the lid knob clockwise to lock
the lid and commence cooking.
10. Once the cooker has reached pressure,
the ‘PREHEAT’ indicator light will
disappear, the cooker alert will sound,
the timer will start counting down.
11. The time can be adjusted during the
pressure cook cycle by pressing the TIME
(+/-) buttons. The cycle can be paused
at any time by pressing the START/
CANCEL button. To end the cycle press
and hold START/CANCEL for 2 seconds.
If there is already pressure in the vessel
it will go immediately to the steam release
cycle.
12. At the end of the pressure cook cycle,
the cooker alert will sound, and steam will
be automatically released through the
pressure release valve. The steam icon
will blink, the timer will start counting up.
13. If NATURAL steam release is selected,
pressure will naturally subside in the
vessel without forcing steam through
