If the pressure indicator remains in the upper position and the pressure cooker cannot be opened, this
means that
there is still pressure in the vessel . Pull the pressure regulator to the upper position
using an oven mitten and wait until all steam escapes from the pressure cooker.
If the pressure indicator does not slip in automatically even after the steam has been released and the
pressure cooker still cannot be opened, insert the pressure cooker into the sink and cool the lid with
a small amount of slowly running cold water until the pressure indicator slips in .
Then open the pressure cooker and thoroughly check and clean the operating valve and the safety
valve before further use.
NEVER COOL THE PRESSURE COOKER ABRUPTLY UNDER RUNNING WATER, DO NOT LET WATER RUN ONTO
PLASTIC PARTS AND DO NOT IMMERSE THE ENTIRE PRESSURE COOKER IN WATER.
SAFETY CUT-OUTS
Operating valve
The operating valve controls the high and low pressure , continuously releases excess steam and
releases all steam from the pressure cooker at the end of cooking.
Safety valve
The safety valve operates as a backup activated when the operating valve becomes clogged .
Immediately remove the pressure cooker from the heat source if steam ceases to escape from the
operating valve and starts to escape intensely from the safety valve (the aperture under the lid grip) during
the cooking process. After the pressure cooker cools down, open it and clean the operating valve.
Aperture in the rim of the lid
If the operating valve and the safety valve become clogged simultaneously, the pressure in the pressure
cooker pushes the silicone seal
through the aperture in the rim of the lid , which causes an immediate
drop in pressure and steam release .
Warning! When cooking, make sure that the aperture in the rim of the lid is not directed
towards individuals coming near the pressure cooker.
IF THE SILICONE SEAL IS PUSHED THROUGH THE APERTURE IN THE RIM OF THE LID, DO NOT REPAIR THE
PRESSURE COOKER YOURSELF; INSTEAD BRING IT IN FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICING.
Lock against accidental opening
Prevents accidental opening of the pressure cooker until all steam has escaped from the vessel and
pressure drops entirely.
PRACTICAL RECOMMENDATIONS
ALWAYS USE AN APPROPRIATE SIZE OF COOKING RANGE OR FLAME FOR COOKING.
The diameter of the cooking range must be
identical or smaller than the diameter of the bottom
of the pressure cooker! Flame must never expand beyond the bottom of the pressure cooker . Use
the dispenser net or cooking range when cooking on gas.
Make use of the heat retaining properties of the three-layer sandwich bottom. Switch the heat off
in
advance before the end of cooking. Thanks to the three-layer sandwich bottom, the accumulated heat
energy is transferred into the pressure cooker even after the heat has been switched off .
The vessel of the pressure cooker without the lid may also be used as a
traditional pot for cooking
meals on the cooking range .
