4-, 6-, 8-, 10-Quart Power Quick Pot™
1. SAFETY LID LOCK:
The Lid tabs connect under
the Base tabs to lock the Lid to the Base when
fully closed.
2. POSITIVE PRESSURE MECHANISM (FLOAT
VALVE):
When the pressure reaches a required
point, the pressure lifts the Float Valve up,
contacting the Locking Pin.
3. LID POSITIONING SENSOR:
A magnetic
sensor indicates whether the Lid is fully closed.
The Unit will beep and display "LID" when
the Lid is not locked or is not required for
a preprogrammed setting.
NOTE:
The Sous Vide, Steam, Sauté, Slow
Cook, and Yogurt presets will not start if the Lid
is locked. It is recommended to use the Glass
Lid to prevent splatter and keep a consistent
temperature during the Sous Vide, Steam,
Slow Cook, and Yogurt cooking cycles. It is also
recommended to have the Glass Lid on while
slow cooking to prevent splatter.
4. LID INNER TRAY (GUARD):
The Inner Lid
prevents food from entering the Upper Lid
and entering the Float Valve and Pressure
Release Chambers.
5. ANTI-BLOCKAGE GUARD:
Guards the
underside of the Pressure Release Valve.
6. TWO-STEP SECURITY RESET FOR QUICK
RELEASE:
The Steam Release Switch needs
to be slid once to release the steam and then
let go to open the Lid. If there is steam/pressure
coming out of the Pressure Release Valve
or your hand is still holding the Steam Release
Switch in the Open position, the Lid will not slide
to open.
7. EXCESS PRESSURE RELEASE SYSTEM:
The Pressure Release Valve is weighted, which
maintains a pressure level and only allows the
Unit to build pressure at a certain level. When
the pressure is higher than the weight can
handle, the steam is released until the pressure
is less than the weight.
8. AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL:
The
temperature is regulated by the programming to
maintain a consistent temperature.
9. PRESSURE CONTROLLER:
The Inner Pot
sits on a pressure plate. When there is too
much pressure, the plate depresses and turns
off the heater, which stops the pressure from
increasing.
10. ELECTRICAL (CURRENT-TEMP)
PROTECTION:
There is a temperature sensor
on the Base of the Unit. When the temperature
rises above the preprogrammed setting,
the heater shuts down and then fluctuates
to allow the Unit to maintain the correct
temperature.
11. CYCLE INDICATOR (LCD DISPLAY):
The LCD display changes colors and a program
countdown is shown.
12. ANTI-TAMPER FLOAT VALVE GUARD:
A screen on the Lid covers the Float Valve,
so it cannot be tampered with.
