HOW TO USE THE PRESSURE COOKER FOR PRESSURE COOKING
Before cooking, read the „
IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING
“ section and always check that the
pressure cooker is properly assembled.
1.
Place the pressure cooker on a dry and flat surface.
2.
Grasp the top lid firmly and turn it clockwise until you hear a click and the mark on the top lid
will be aligned with the mark
on the pot body.
3.
Move the valve to „
Sealing
“.
4.
Select the program button on the control panel, adjust the cooking time or manually set the
desired time and pressure (low/high).
5.
When the pressure cooker is heated, the air is automatically de-aerated around the blue safety
float valve and you hear this deaeration. Once the pot is properly pressurized, the cooking time is
started.
6.
During cooking, you may occasionally notice steam release with a blue safety float valve. It's
normal.
7.
It is also okay if you hear how the pot heats and during cooking.
8.
After the cooking time has elapsed, the pressure cooker beeps and automatically switches to
„
Keep warm
“ mode.
9.
When you release the pressure in the pot, you will see that the blue safety float valve in the top
lid is in the low position.
10.
After the pressure drops completely or when you lower it by turning it to „
Venting
“, carefully turn
the upper lid counterclockwise and lift the top lid straight up so that the residual liquid drips into
the pot.
11.
CAUTION:
Steam and hot liquid may cause burns.
12.
When cooking is complete, disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet and then from
the pressure cooker.
13.
Allow the pressure cooker to cool completely before cleaning.
CAUTION!
During cooking and when opening the top lid, a strong vertical leakage of
hot steam may occur. Be careful!
The case, the inner pot and the metal parts of the unit heat up when running!
When cooking, until it cools down, steam may escape from the pressure valve of the
pot and there is a risk of scalding.
While pressure cooker is pressurized (blue safety float valve is in the upper position),
do not pan over the pot, as hot steam may escape.
To release pressure from the pressure cooker, grasp the end of the valve lever (not the
entire valve) and turn it slightly towards the
„
Venting
“
position.
PRESSURE RELEASE
Quick release of pressure
This method is used for cooking vegetables, seafood and other fine foods. After the cooking time has
elapsed, press the „
Keep warm/Cancel
“ button and immediately move the valve lever to the
„
Venting
“ position.
You will hear the escaping steam and within 2 to 3 minutes the pressure will be released. The
pressure drop will also be visible on the blue safety floating valve, which will be in the lower position.
