WATER TEST
For the first use, to ensure correct assembly of the Rubber Seal Ring (18),it is
recommended to read the following instructions and fill the Inner Pot (6) with water to
the 2/3 line and program to pressure cook for 30 minutes. Once completed, pour out the
water. Rinse and towel dry the Inner Pot (6). The pressure cooker is now ready for use.
LID SAFETY LOCK SYSTEM
*Note: This unit has a built-in safety feature that prevents all functions from activating if
the Lid (2) is not properly locked/secured into place.
A cooking function cannot be selected if the Lid (2) is not properly locked/secured into
place. The display will show "LID" and continuously beep until the Lid (2) is properly
closed. You will not be able to select a cooking function.
This is to prevent the unit from cooking without the lid being properly secured. The Saute
function will still work as this function does not use the Lid (2).
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
COOKING POT MARKINGS
Inside the removable cooking pot are two sets of markings. One side is marked "2/3
MAX PRESSURE COOK", which indicates the maximum fill line when cooking any
food, other than rice in the pressure cooker. The other marking is MAX RICE CUP and is
used when cooking rice. When pressure cooking rice, never fill the pressure cooker with
water past the 6 cup marking.
1. Open lid, remove cooking pot from pressure cooker
and add food and liquids.
NOTE: The total volume of food and liquid must not
exceed 2/3 of the capacity of the cooking pot (Figure
12). For foods such as dried vegetables and beans, or
rice and grains, the total volume must not exceed 1/2
the capacity (Figure 13). Overfilling may clog the
pressure limit valve, which can cause excess pressure
to develop. Figure 12 - 13
Always use at least ½ cup liquid when pressure cooking.
