HOW TO USE YOUR PRESSURE COOKER
NOTES & TIPS #3:
When pressing a Menu Button, the LED screen will not immediately change until the pressure
has built up to capacity. This may take approximately 5-10 minutes depending on the quantity
of food you are cooking.
NOTES & TIPS #4:
•
During the Pressure Building process, you may notice steam or pressure escaping from the
Pressure Limiting Valve. Carefully adjust the valve by moving it gently or turning it side to
side gently using tongs or similar utensil until it seals properly.
•
If any steam is escaping around the lid, it means that the Rubber Seal Ring may not have
completed a tight seal when the lid was locked. Cancel the cooking process, release
pressure manually or naturally, remove the lid and check the Rubber Seal Ring. Reposition
the lid and ensure that it is secure. Start the cooking process again.

There are Seven Preset Menu Buttons programmed for your pressure cooker (Vegetables/Fish,
Soup/Stew, Potatoes, Beef/Meat, White Rice, Chicken, and Bean/Chili). These are preset for quick
and easy cooking for small portions of food in addition to manual programming. (When cooking food
that is more than 3lbs. or more than 6-cups, please use the Timed Cooking function.) The seven
Preset Menu Buttons are programmed to detect the weight of food being cooked and how much
liquid is inside the pot during the cooking cycle. The unit will automatically build up the pressure,
cook the food and go to Keep Warm when cooking is complete.
