2. Push down and then rotate the lid handle clockwise until the lid handle lines up with
the cooking pot handle.
• Place the pressure regulator on the vent pipe.
Note: The pressure regulator will fit loosely on the vent pipe; it will not touch the top of the lid.
• Select a high heat setting on your stove.
• Heat the pressure cooker until the pressure regulator attains a gentle rocking motion.
• When pressure begins to build, the safety lock pin slides up locking the lid. Once the pressure
cooker has sealed, the cooking time begins.
Note: The safety lock pin may move up and down a few times when cooking first begins; as it
automatically exhausts air from the pressure cooker. Steam will be noticeable. This is normal.
• The safety lock pin will remain in the up position until pressure is released.
• Adjust the heat as necessary to maintain regulator in a slow rocking motion.
Note: Cook for the length of time indicated in the recipe.
Caution: Never leave your pressure cooker unattended at high heat settings. It could boil dry,
overheat, and cause damage to the pressure cooker.
