CLEANING/ MAINTENANCE
Do not wash any parts of the pressure cooker in the dishwasher. Always wash the pressure cooker thoroughly
after every use, or if it has not been used for an extended period of time.
1. Unplug and let the unit cool before cleaning.
2. Wash the removable cooking pot with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Replace the pressure
regulator knob by lining the notches up to the inside wall of the pressure regulator chamber in the lid and turn
clockwise.
3. Wipe the outer housing with a clean damp cloth. Do not submerge in water.
4. Remove the condensation reservoir by pulling down. Clean with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry
thoroughly. Replace by pushing up.
5. Turn the lid upside down, grasp the rubber gasket on either side and pull up. Clean the rubber gasket in
warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Replace the gasket by pushing it down inside the edge of the
lid. Make sure the groove in the center of the gasket is positioned around the metal ring on the inside edge of
the lid. Note: If the gasket is not positioned properly, the unit will not work.
6. Press down and turn the pressure regulator knob counterclockwise to the CLEAN setting and carefully
remove, Wash with warm soapy water.
7. Turn the lid over and place on a table top. Pull out the anti-blocking shield . Using a brush, check and
remove any food or foreign particles that may be lodged in the floating valve. Replace the anti-blocking shield.
8. The bottom of the removable cooking pot, in the area of the sensor pad, must be cleaned after each use.
Wipe with a soft damp cloth and be sure to dry thoroughly.
9. Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads to clean any of the parts.
NOTE:
Store the pressure cooker with the lid resting upside down on the removable cooking pot. This will
protect the valves, knobs and pressure regulator on the top of the lid. If the pressure cooker is stored with the
lid sealed, stale odors may form inside.
