• Do not interfere with the safety system, so
long as this not specified in "7.3 Storing the
pressure cooker" on page 25.
• Always ensure that the pressure cooker is
closed correctly before putting it on the
cooker (see "6.1 Preparing the pressure
cooker" on page 21).
• The surface of the pressure cooker can
become extremely hot when cooking.
Therefore, when it is hot, you should only
touch the handles. It is also advisable to
protect yourself from the high temperatures
by using an additional oven cloth or oven
gloves.
• The pressure regulator
8
should never be
covered by any objects.
• Always ensure the safety opening
9
is facing
away from you during use and that it is not
facing where others may pass by. In the
event of a fault, a lot of steam will escape.
• Should steam escape from the safety valve
3
or the safety opening
9
, immediately turn off
the heat supply as the pressure inside the
appliance is too high. Only continue using
the appliance once the fault has been
corrected (see "8. How to Solve Errors" on
page 26).
• Never fill the pressure cooker above the
"MAX" mark on the inside of the pan. This
corresponds to a maximum of 4 litres. When
cooking food which expands, such as rice or
pulses, you should only fill the base to half of
its capacity. This will ensure that the food
does not touch the lid, thereby avoiding the
eventuality that it may block the safety valve.
• Meat with skin (such as ox tongue) may
swell when cooked under pressure. Do not
prick the skin if it is not yet swollen.
Otherwise hot water may squirt out.
• When cooking soft food, gently shake the
pressure cooker before opening it, to avoid
the food spurting out when you open the lid.

• This appliance should always be stored out
of reach of children.
