Only the body of your pressure cooker is suitable for the dishwasher, 

however we recommend hand washing to help retain the appearance 

of your pressure cooker

If you make sure that you always have sufficient liquid, that you do 

not leave the cooker steaming or cooking for long periods on too high 

a heat, and you replace the gasket and secondary safety device 

regularly, your cooker should never boil dry.

If the cooker ever does boil dry, the heat must be turned off and the 

cooker left to cool before moving.

If your cooker ever does boil dry, the cooker will overheat and the 

base of the cooker may become distorted. Distortion of the base is 

not covered by the guarantee.
