PRESSURE SETTING
COOKING
There are four pressure settings. You may use position 2 in normal cases and special
position 1 for quick cooking of easily cooked food (see Figures 8 & 9).
• Begin with the heat source on a high setting
• A small amount of steam may escape from the steam outlet.
• When cooking begins, the temperature rises and the pressure cooking process begins
automatically.
• The pressure indictor (red) rises until the surface, which indicates that the internal
pressure is built.
• Cautions must be taken to control the heat setting so that flames do not reach the wall of
the cooker. When locking valve rises quickly, it’s normal to have a small amount of steam
escaping from the side of the handle in a short amount of time.

• When steam escapes steadily from the pressure
regulator, reduce the heat and set your cooking time
as indicated on your recipe or according to your own
preferences.
