The safety valve:
While pressure in the cooker is building up, the
RED
pressure indicator
is visible and the cooker is locked
(never attempt to open it using force).
If the pressure indicator is not visible, the cooker is no
longer under pressure. It can then be opened.
If for any unexpected reason the pressure-regulation valve
does not release steam as it should, the valve will open in
accordance with the prescribed values.
The sliding locking-catch:
When the lid is closed, the sliding locking-catch clicks
audibly into place. The lid can then only be unlocked by
pressing the locking-catch in the direction of the cooker
body.
Warning: Let pressure cooker steam off before – never
attempt to open it using force!
The safety window:
An additional safety element is the safety window let into the
top of the lid. If there is excessive pressure in the cooker,
the sealing ring forces its way out through this window, and
the steam can escape.
