After cooking, remove the gasket from
the lid. Wash and allow to dry till next
use. If after considerable use, the rub-
ber gasket leaks, lightly stretch gas-
ket diagonally to extend its life. The
rubber gasket can also be immersed
in a basin of cold water to extend its
life.
After 9 to 12 months use or if the ap-
pliance is not used for a period of time,
the gasket can harden and this will
prevent the appliance from sealing
properly. Then the gasket must be
replaced with a new one.

Always put the cooker away after dry-
ing it thoroughly. Do not store the
cooker in a sealed or closed condition.
This will prevent mustiness as there
will be circulation of air. Always store
the pressure regulator separately on a
shelf or drawer and not on the lid.

SERVING
While using the cooker for direct
cooking or serving, care should be
taken to see that spoons, ladles, forks
and other utensils are not tapped
against the rim of the body as this may
nick its sealing surface and allow the
steam to escape even with a new gas-
ket. We repeat, avoid damage to seal-
ing rims of the lid and body.

Certain properties of water and cer-
tain minerals of food may cause dis-
coloration of the inside of the cooker.
This is quite harmless. This discol-
oration dos not affect the aluminum,
anodizing, or the food cooked in it, in
any way. When this discolouration
occurs, it can be removed with any
non-alkaline aluminum cleaner. Oth-
erwise, put a teaspoon of vinegar or a
slice of fresh lime in the water used in
the cooker. This will prevent discol-
