OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Only when adhering to the rules strictly, can the full
advantages of the pressure cooker be achieved.
1. To use the pressure cooker for the first time,
please add edible oil to the place as shown in
Fig 1 for easy opening and closing.
2. The amount of food and water put in the cooker
can not exceed 2/3 of the cooker’s volume, see
Fig 2, water or soup can not be
less than 200 millilitres (about 2 bowls).
3. Always look through the regulator to make
certain that it is clear before closing the cover.
Please ensure that the safety valve and pressure
indicating valve is in good order and the
indicating valve is in the dropped position.
4. Place the cover on the cooker and turn the
upper handle of the cover clockwise to meet
the lower handles position, as shown in Fig 3.
This aligns the pushing plate to a working
position and the indicating valve is shown,
see Fig 4.
5. Place the pressure limiting valve on the regulator
in Fig 3. Align the hook for the correct
cooking conditions.
6. After the cover has been closed properly,
cooking can commence. Some steam may
escape from the regulator, but this is normal.
As the pressure builds up, the indicating valve
rod will rise up and remain in this up position,
while the steam escapes from the regulator with
a sound. Reduce the cooking temperature until
the cooking is complete.
7. To reduce the pressure after the cooking is
complete, set the cooker aside to cool until the
pressure is completely reduced. If you wish to
cool the pressure cooker down quickly, place
the pressure cooker, under running cold water
(Fig 5). Allow the cold running water to run over
the metal surface of the lid until the pressure
reduces. The pressure is completely reduced
when the pressure indicating valve has been
released. If the pressure indicating valve remains
in its raised position, there may still be pressure
inside the pressure cooker. Continue to cool until
the pressure indicating valve drops. After the
pressure has been completely reduced, remove
the pressure limiting valve. Always remove the
pressure limiting valve before opening the cover.
The following important safety precautions are recommended by most portable appliance manufacturers.
