• Do not move the cooker when
in use.
• Do not use the lid handle to
carry the appliance.
• Only use the side handles to
carry or move the appliance.
• Before placing removable
cooking bowl into the base
ensure the base of the bowl and
the base of the appliance is dry
by wiping with a dry soft cloth.
• Do not use a damaged
removable cooking bowl.
Replace before using.
• Do not place food or liquid
directly into the base. Only
the removable cooking bowl
is designed to contain food or
liquid.
• Never operate the cooker
without food and liquid in
the removable cooking bowl.
Ensure a combined minimum
of 4 cups (1 Liter) of food and/
or liquid when cooking. Using
less than 4 cups can result in
a reduction of pressurization.
This minimum quantity
level does not apply for
the LEGUMES and RICE |
GRAINS settings.
• Always ensure there is enough
liquid in the removable
cooking bowl when steaming.
At least 4 cups (1 Liter) of
liquid is required when
steaming.
• Do not exceed maximum fill
level. Some foods expand
during pressure cooking
such as rice, diced vegetables.
Over filling may cause a risk
of clogging pressure release
valve and safety locking pin
and develop excess pressure.
Always follow the maximum
and minimum quantities of
liquid stated in instructions
and recipes.
• Some food to avoid when
pressure cooking are: apple
sauce, cranberries, pearl
barley, oatmeal and other
cereals, noodles and pasta, and
rhubarb; these foods can foam,
froth and splatter and clog
the pressure release valve and
safety locking pin.
• Before use, always check
pressure release valve and
safety locking pin for clogging
and clean if necessary. Check
to make sure the safety locking
pin moves freely from under
the lid.
