• Do not damage the sealing gasket. Do not
use any other gasket than the one
provided (including rubber gaskets).

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
• Once your food is cooked, unplug the
appliance to clean it
- fig. 16.
It is
recommended to clean your appliance
after each use.
• Clean the housing with a damp cloth. Do
not immerse the appliance in water or
pour water into it.
• Remove the condensation collector and
clean it thoroughly under water. Place it
back in its original position
- fig. 17 + 18.
• Clean the upper ring with a damp cloth.
• Rinse the inside of the lid including the
sealing gasket pressure limit valve, float
valve protective cover, air escape and
float valve. Dry them off thoroughly before
placing them back.
•
Clean the cooking pot and the
accessories in the dishwasher
- fig. 4.
Do
not use a scourer to clean the pot as
this can damage the non stick coating
in the pot.
• To clean the gasket supporting cover,
separate the gasket supporting cover from
the lid. To do this, take a hold of the knob
on the lid and pull the sealing gasket
upwards. Once clean, place the gasket
and gasket supporting cover back in their
original position
- fig. 19 + 23.
• To clean the float valve, move the float
gently and rinse away any food from the
valve or the sealing gasket
- fig. 21 + 22.
• Remove the pressure limit valve to clean it
and rinse it under water. Once dry, place it
back in its original position.
• The duct in the pressure regulator should
be checked regularly to prevent
blockage.
• Do not immerse the appliance. Always use
the cooking pot provided. Do not pour
water or food directly into the appliance.
•
If you inadvertently immerse your
appliance in water or spill water directly on
the heating element (when the pot is not
in place), take it to your service centre for
repair.
• Clean your appliance after each use.
• Do not store your appliance with the lid
closed.
• Do not carry the appliance by its handle.
Use the 2 carrying handles to transport the
product.
• Change the sealing gasket every 2 years.
• It is normal for a small amount of steam to
escape during cooking (as the valve is a
safety valve).
5. K
EEP WARM
• Once the cooking cycle is completed, the
appliance will automatically switch to
Keep Warm.
• Maximum duration for Keep Warm is 12h.
• In the Keep Warm setting
, condensation
may build up in the upper ring. This is
normal.
• After 12h, the appliance will go to stand by
and the LED display will show
.
• To avoid any bacteria from developing, do
not use the Keep Warm setting with foods
that cannot be stored at an ambient
temperature i.e. meat, fish, dairy products
and eggs…
6. R
EMOVING THE LID
• Place the pressure valve on
to release
the pressure
- fig. 15.
Keep your hands
away from the pressure limit valve when
releasing steam.
• As the pressure limit valve may be hot, we
recommend using a kitchen utensil like
tongs or a wooden spoon to lift the valve.

it clockwise and lift the lid
