• Do not touch hot surfaces; use oven mitts to
remove the lid and removable cooking bowl.
Lift and remove the lid carefully and away
from yourself to avoid scalding from escaping
steam.
• Extreme caution must be used when Pressure
Cooker contains hot food and liquids and/or
is under pressure. Improper use may result in
injury. When using this Pressure Cooker, make
sure the lid is properly locked and aligned
before operating.
• Do not allow water from the lid to drip into
the Pressure Cooker housing, only into the
removable cooking bowl.
• Do not place anything on top of the lid when
assembled, when in use and when stored.
• Before placing removable cooking bowl into
stainless steel housing, ensure base of bowl
and base of Pressure Cooker is dry by wiping
with a dry soft cloth.
• The removable cooking bowl can be
extremely heavy when full of ingredients.
Care should be taken when lifting from
Pressure Cooker housing.
• Do not use the lid handle to carry Pressure
Cooker when in use and after use. The lid
handle is for opening and closing the lid.
• Always ensure that the removable cooking
bowl has cooled sufficiently before handling
and use oven mitts when removing from the
steel housing.
• Do not adjust the “Pressure Release Valve”
whilst in use.
• Use only recommended “Pressure Steam
Release” options found on page 18 to
depressurise cooker after use.
• Do not exceed maximum fill level. Some foods
expand during pressure cooking such as rice
and legumes; do not fill removable cooking
bowl over ½ full for such items. Over filling may
cause a risk of clogging both the pressure
release valve and the lid lock actuator.
It may also lead to the development of excess
pressure.
• The temperature of accessible surfaces will be
high when the Pressure Cooker is operating
and for some time after use.
• Care should be taken when handling the
Pressure Cooker after cooking, ensuring that
the pressure cooker body and parts are not
touched as these may still be hot due to
residual heat.
• Do not place the removable cooking bowl
when hot on any surface that may be
affected by heat.
• Avoid sudden temperature changes. Do not
place frozen or very cold foods into
the removable cooking bowl when it is hot.
Do not place hot removable cooking bowl
into cold water.
• Do not use the removable cooking bowl for
food storage. The removable cooking bowl is
not designed for storing food in the freezer.
• To prevent scratching the non-stick surface
of the removable cooking bowl, always use
wooden or plastic utensils.
• Steam vents from the pressure release valve.
Always position steam vent on lid away from
yourself to avoid scalding from escaping
steam.
• Steam vents from the pressure release valve.
Check the ducts in the pressure release valve
regularly to ensure they are not blocked. The
pressure cooker must not be opened until the
pressure has decreased sufficiently and the lid
unlocks easily.
• Do not attempt to open the Pressure Cooker
lid after pressure cooking until all internal
pressure has been released and is slightly
cooled. If the lid will not turn to unlock, this
indicates that Pressure Cooker is still under
pressure – do not force the lid open. Any
pressure remaining can be hazardous. See
operating instructions for “steam release”
directions in this instruction book.
• Recommended cooking times in this
instruction booklet may vary depending on
the ingredients and quantities of food used for
recipes.
• Always check the pressure release valve, the
removable metal basket and the pressure
safety valve for clogging before use and
clean if necessary. Check to make sure the lid
locking pin and lid lock actuator move freely
in and out of the lid.
• Do not immerse Pressure Cooker housing/
base, power cord or plug in water or any other
liquid.
• Never move the Pressure Cooker when in
use or whilst the cooker is still under pressure.
Movement may result in inadvertent
movement of the pressure regulator/release
valve resulting in unexpected steam or hot
liquid being released from the pressure
release valve or the side of the lid which
may cause scalding.
• Keep the Pressure Cooker clear of walls,
curtains and other heat or steam sensitive
materials.
• Use the pressure release valve to release
steam pressure.
• Never use the removable cooking bowl to
sauté ingredients on a ceramic, electric or gas
stove.
• Ensure that the safety locking lid is properly
aligned, locked and closed before operating.
• Do not use chemicals, steel wool, metal
scouring pad or abrasive cleaners to clean
the outside of the Pressure Cooker housing
or cooking bowl as these can damaged the
housing or the coating of the cooking bowl.
