* There is no pressure for the SAUTÉ and BROWNING function as these functions are used without the lid.
** The pressure for SLOW COOK function is negligible as the temperature is lower compared to other functions.

6. Slide the condensation tray into place on the side of the base unit. (See Figure 9.)
7. Clean and dry the bottom of the removable cooking pot as well as the heating plate, making sure
there are no unwanted materials on the surface. The removable cooking pot must sit flat on the
heating plate to ensure proper contact.
8. Place the Digital Pressure Cooker on a flat, level surface, approximately 2 feet from a standard 120V
AC electrical outlet. DO NOT let cord hang over the edge of a table or countertop.
WARNING:
When slow cooking or cooking
under pressure, never place the Digital Pressure
Cooker under cabinets. When releasing steam,
make sure the area several feet above the
pressure release valve is clear from all lighting
fixtures, furniture or cabinetry.
9. Connect the detachable power cord to the
receptacle at the back of the Digital Pressure Cooker.
