WHEN USING ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

 

ƒ

ALWAYS

 

be sure the float valve is on correctly before use. 

Incorrect assembly may prevent the cooker from building 

pressure or allow steam to come out from the sides of the 

LID

 

(See page 14 for assembly). 

 

ƒ

DO NOT

 touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. 

 

ƒ

To protect against electric shock 

DO NOT

 immerse or rinse cords 

or plugs in water or other liquid.

 

ƒ

THIS APPLIANCE SHOULD NEVER BE OPERATED BY 

CHILDREN AND SPECIAL CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN WHEN 

THE UNIT IS IN USE IN THEIR PRESENCE.

 

ƒ

Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to 

cool before putting on or taking off parts. 

 

ƒ

DO NOT

 operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug 

or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in 

any manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service 

facility for examination, repair or adjustment.

 

ƒ

The Power Cooker has a back-up feature to prevent malfunction 

in the event of a power surge. Unplug appliance and allow it to 

“clear” for 1 hour before plugging it back into the outlet.

 

ƒ

Appliance should be operated on a dedicated electrical circuit.

 

ƒ

DO NOT

 use any attachments or utensils that were not 

recommended or supplied by the manufacturer. The use of 

attachments not recommended for use by the manufacturer may 

cause serious hazardous situations including personal injury.

 

ƒ

DO NOT

 use outdoors.

 

ƒ

DO NOT

 let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch  

hot surfaces. 

 

ƒ

DO NOT

 place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in 

a heated oven. 

 

ƒ

EXTREME CAUTION

 must be used when moving an appliance 

containing hot oil or other hot liquids.

 

ƒ

ALWAYS

 attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into the 

wall outlet. To disconnect, set any control to “Off”, then remove 

plug from wall outlet.

 

ƒ

DO NOT

 use appliance for anything other than its intended use.

 

ƒ

THIS APPLIANCE COOKS UNDER PRESSURE.

 Improper use 

may result in scalding injury. Make certain unit is properly closed 

before operating. See General Operating Instructions on page 9.

 

ƒ

NEVER FILL THE UNIT ABOVE THE MAX LINE

 in the 

INNER 

POT

 (page 8). When using foods that expand during cooking such 

as rice or dried beans, follow the recipe for “pressure cooking” 

those products, and as a rule of thumb, do not fill the unit above 

the “halfway” point. Overfilling may cause clogging, allowing 

excess pressure to develop. 

SEE INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

.

 

ƒ

BE AWARE

 that certain foods, such as applesauce, cranberries, 

pearl barley, oatmeal or other cereals, split peas, noodles, 

macaroni, rhubarb, and spaghetti, can foam, froth, sputter, and 

clog the pressure release device (steam vent). Recipes using these 

items must be followed carefully to  avoid problems.

 

ƒ

ALWAYS

 check the pressure release devices for clogs before use.

 

ƒ

DO NOT 

open the Power Cooker until the unit has cooled and all 

internal pressure has been released. If the unit is difficult to open, 

this indicates that the cooker is still pressurized – do not force it 

open. Any pressure in the cooker can be hazardous. See General 

Operating Instructions on page 9.

 

ƒ

DO NOT

 use this pressure cooker for pressure frying with oil. 

 

ƒ

This appliance has been designed for use with a 3-prong, 

grounded, 

120V ELECTRICAL OUTLET ONLY

. Do not use any 

other electrical outlet.

 

ƒ

The Power Cooker generates extreme heat and steam in its 

operation. All necessary precautions must be taken to avoid fire, 

burns and other personal injury during its operation.

 

ƒ

NEVER OPERATE

 

THE UNIT NEAR ANY FLAMMABLE 

MATERIALS

 such as dish towels, paper towels, curtains, 

paper plates, etc. When in operation the Power Cooker requires 

sufficient air space on all sides including top and bottom.  Always 

plug the electrical cord directly into the wall outlet. Never use this 

unit with an extension cord of any kind. 

 

ƒ

ANYONE WHO HAS NOT FULLY READ AND UNDERSTOOD 

ALL OPERATING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS CONTAINED 

IN THIS MANUAL IS NOT QUALIFIED TO OPERATE OR 

CLEAN THIS APPLIANCE.

 

ƒ

IF THIS UNIT FALLS OR ACCIDENTALLY BECOMES 

IMMERSED IN WATER,  UNPLUG IT FROM THE WALL 

OUTLET IMMEDIATELY. DO NOT REACH INTO THE WATER!

 

ƒ

DO NOT

 operate this appliance on an unstable surface.

 

ƒ

IF THIS APPLIANCE BEGINS TO MALFUNCTION DURING 

USE, IMMEDIATELY UNPLUG THE CORD. DO NOT USE OR 

ATTEMPT TO REPAIR A MALFUNCTIONING APPLIANCE!

 

ƒ

NEVER FORCE OPEN THE POWER COOKER.

 If you need 

to open the Power Cooker, press the “KEEP WARM/CANCEL” 

button and carefully slide the 

RAPID RELEASE BUTTON

 (page 

8) to the Release position to fully release the building pressure 

inside the cooker. Make sure that all the steam has dissipated 

from the cooker and the Pressure Release Valve (page 8) is fully 

settled back into the 

LID

 shell. Carefully turn the handle counter 

clockwise. Always open the 

LID

 away from you to avoid skin 

contact with any remaining heat or steam.

 

ƒ

CAUTION: TO REDUCE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, COOK 

ONLY IN THE REMOVABLE CONTAINER.

 Do not immerse 

the housing or base in water. Before use, clean the bottom of 

the 

INNER POT

 and the surface of the heater plate. Insert the 

INNER POT

, turning it slightly clockwise and counterclockwise 

until you are sure it is sitting correctly on the heater plate. Failure 

to do so will prevent proper operation and may cause damage to 

the unit.

 

ƒ

CAUTION HOT SURFACES:

 This appliance generates heat and 

escaping steam during use. Proper precautions must be taken to 

prevent the risk of personal injury, fires, and damage to property.

 

ƒ

CAUTION:

 To prevent plasticizers from migrating from the finish 

of the counter top or tabletop or other furniture, place NON-

PLASTIC coasters or place mats under the appliance. Failure to 

do so may cause permanent stains, blemishes or darkening to 

furniture and counter tops. 

 

ƒ

CAUTION: 

When moving the pressure cooker, use the carry 

handles and not the lid handle.
