Steaming with the pressure cooker
Depending on how full the cooker is, it will take several
minutes until the preset cooking stage has been reached.
This is the case as soon as steam starts to escape
permanently from the pressure-regulation valve.
The actual cooking time only starts
from this moment.
Only at this point should the source of heat be turned
down to a lower stage.
In this way, you avoid unnecessary consumption of energy
and the risk of the cooker boiling dry.
At the end of the cooking time ...
Switch off oven!
Now start slowly steam off step-by-step ...
Turn the pressure-regulation valve from the preselected
pressure stage to stage . Please note at pressure stage
II: First turn down to stage I and then switch further to
stage after a couple of seconds.
Warning:
: The escaping steam is very hot – protect
yourself from burns and scalding by keeping away your
face, body and arms from the steam.
(see pages 12/13).
Opening the pot
Wait until all steam has escaped, at which point you can
switch off the pressure cooker. The lid may be removed.
WARNING:
Never use force to open the lid.
