IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using pressure cookers, basic safety precautions should
always be followed :
1.
Read all instructions.
2.
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3.
Close supervision is necessary when the pressure cooker is used
near children.
4.
Do not place the pressure cooker in a heated oven.
5.
Extreme caution must be used when moving a pressure
cooker containing hot liquids.
6.
Regularly check that the handles of the pressure cooker are fitted
correctly. Tighten them if necessary.
7.
Do not use pressure cooker for other than intended use.
8.
This appliance cooks under pressure. Improper use may result in
scalding injury. Make certain unit is properly closed before opera-
ting. See “Operating Instructions.”
9.
Do not fill the unit over 2/3 full. When cooking foods that expand
during cooking such as rice or dried vegetables, do not fill the unit
over ½ full. Over filling may cause a risk of clogging the vent pipe
and developing excess pressure. See “Food Preparation Instructions.”
10. Be aware that certain foods, such as applesauce, cranberries, pearl
barley, oatmeal or other cereals, split peas, noodles, macaroni, rhu-
barb, or spaghetti can foam, froth, and sputter, and clog the pres-
sure release device (steam vent). These foods should not be cooked
in a pressure cooker.
11. Always check the pressure release devices for clogging
before use.
12. Do not open the pressure cooker until the unit has cooled and all
internal pressure has been released. If the handles are difficult to
push apart, this indicates that the cooker is still pressurized – do
not force it open. Any pressure in the cooker can be hazardous.
See “Operating Instructions”.
13. Do not use this pressure cooker for pressure frying with oil.
14. When the normal operating pressure is reached, turn the heat down
so all the liquid, which creates the steam, does not evaporate.
15. Always pour a minimum amount of a liquid of at least
8.5 oz in the unit. See "Operating Instructions".
