•
Check that the steam vent is clear
after rinsing. If it is clogged,
clean by carefully pushing a wire
through the steam vent. Rinse
with running water. A needle may
be used to remove food from
the steam vent nut.
•
A special cleaning brush is supplied along with the Futura. The
main brush is designed to
clean between the handle and
the lid. The shorter brush can
be used to clean around the
steam vent and the pressure regulator.
•
Metallic marks – most often from gas stove pan supports – may
appear on the base. To remove metallic marks from base: apply a
kitchen cleanser to the marks and rub with an abrasive kitchen
scrubber such as Scotch-Brite or fine steel wool.
Baked-on Stains
•
If the pressure cooker is not cleaned thoroughly after each use, a
thin layer of food or grease may remain. When the cooker is heated
next, this food/grease becomes ‘’baked-on’’ and very difficult to
remove. Avoid ‘’baked-on’’ fat or gravy stains; wipe off any fat or
gravy on the cooker base before placing on hot stove. Ensure
stove surface in contact with pressure cooker is free of fat drippings.
•
If you do get ‘’baked-on’’ stains on the base, you may try the following
method: Tackle them while they are still fresh. Soak in hot water.
Make a thick paste of a chlorine-base kitchen cleanser and apply it
to the surface. Wait 5 to 10 minutes, then scour lightly with a fine
steel wool using a circular motion. Wash and wipe dry.
•
If food is stuck to the cooker, remove with a plastic scrubber and a
non-abrasive cleanser. If food is badly stuck or burned the following
procedure helps dislodge food particles and makes cleaning easier:
pour into cooker enough water (not above half full) to cover the
area of burned food. Close cooker. Bring to full pressure on high
heat. Reduce heat and cook 5 minutes. Allow to cool naturally.
Open cooker. Wash and wipe dry. For stubborn spots, a fine
soap-impregnated steel wool pad may be used gently .
Storing
•
Allow the cooker and all its parts to dry completely before storing.
•
The sealing ring should be stored fitted in the lid curl.
•
Store the cooker open to avoid mustiness.
