Setting up (K-45 and K-90)
Remove the cooker lid by turning it clockwise. Remove the cooking
pot and the heat shield from the underside of the cooker lid by
pulling the silicone grab point. Then remove the silicone ring from
the heat shield.
Clean the cooker lid, silicone ring and heat shield in warm soapy
water and then dry thoroughly.
Warning – never clean the cooker base or cooker lid in the
dishwasher. Keep liquids away from the cooker base. Always wear
heat protection such as oven mitts when removing the cooking pot
if the unit has been used and may still be hot. Avoid touching any
other parts of the unit if it may be hot, allow it to cool first.
Add the silicone ring around the outer edge of the heat shield. It
can be placed either way around, ensure it is fully attached and lies
flat under the silicone ring rack. A silicone ring with cracks, cuts, or
other damage should be replaced immediately.
Remove the anti-clog cap from the underside of the cooker lid.
Ensure it’s clean and there are no obstructions or debris. Position
it back on the float valve and press to re-install. Reattach the heat
shield to the underside of the cooker lid.
Add your food and liquids to the cooking pot, ensuring that it’s
between 1/5 and 4/5 full, or 3/5 full for expandable foods such as
vegetables. Place the cooking pot back into the cooker base, being
careful not to spill any contents.
Replace the cooker lid, make sure you turn it anti-clockwise until it
locks in place. Make sure it’s correctly fitted.
Move the pressure release valve to the “seal” position if you would
like to use high pressure cooking or “vent” if you would like to use
low pressure cooking.
Tip – activate the keep warm function by pressing “Keep
Warm” when no program is running.
Warning – If the cooker lid will not unlock, this indicates that it is
still under pressure, do not force it. Always use heat protection and
keep hands, face, and other body parts away from the pressure
release valve when venting and when removing the cooker lid.
