pressure, do not prick the skin while it is swollen. You may suffer burns.
CAUTION:
The pressure cooker generates internal pressure and the liquids it contains
have a boiling point of below 120ºC. After boiling, especially when the pressure
is reduced rapidly, a large amount of steam and liquid will be generated.
Water condensation may appear on the surfaces and objects around this
appliance.
Do not cook apple jam, maize, pulses, algae, oat flakes or other foods which
expand, in order to avoid blocking the air outlet.
Do not boil soda water directly. Do not use an excessive amount of oil or wine.

Do not direct the safety grille towards the user or anywhere people may pass
by. Do not open the lid of the cooker when it is under pressure. Before using it,
make sure that the pressure cooker is correctly closed for heating.
Liquids that are salted, alkaline or which contain sugar or vinegar should not be
kept in the cooker for prolonged periods. Wash and dry the cooker after use.

Properties
1.This stainless steel pressure cooker has been designed for domestic use.
The double reinforced compound metal bottom guarantees that the heat is
evenly transferred.
The cooker is suitable for gas, electric and vitro-ceramic hobs and induction
plates.
2.The pressure cooker has a variety of safety mechanisms:
•Pressure valve: The valve can be set between 60 kPa. This load valve is
stable and safe.
•Safety valve: Should cooking pressure become abnormally high or the pressu-
re control valve malfunction, steam will escape though the safety valve. If the
lid is not properly closed, pressure will not build up inside the pot and the steam
will escape between the seal and the body and through the safety valve. In
this case, turn off the hob and close the lid properly. Do not open the pressure
cooker until the valve pin has lowered.
3.There are various safety mechanisms for reducing the pressure which
guarantee that the pressure cooker functions properly. (Fig. 3)
