CAUTION!
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Always follow basic safety precautions when using your pressure cooker.
Read all instructions before using.
• Do not use your cooker outdoors. Not for
commercial use. Use on indoor countertops
only.
• Spilled food can cause serious burns. Your
cooker uses a short cord to avoid being
tangled, tripped over, or grabbed. Keep away
from children. Do not let the power cord hang
over the edge of a table or counter, or touch
hot surfaces. Do not use outlet below counter.
Do not use with an extension cord.
• Do not place your cooker near gas or electric
burners, or in a heated oven.
• Be extremely cautious when moving your
cooker if it contains hot liquids.
• Only use your cooker as directed in this
manual.
• Your cooker has a 3-prong grounding plug,
and should be used with 120V / 60Hz electrical
systems in North America. Always plug in to a
grounded electrical outlet. Do not modify the
plug in any way.
• Do not exceed the maximum fill line.
• Always turn the pressure release valve to
when using pressurized cooking programs.
• Never use your cooker for deep frying or
pressure frying.
• Cooking certain foods with a high starch
content or high liquid content (such as
porridge, soup, and noodles) can create foam
or froth under pressure. This can clog the
pressure release valve, cause steam to sputter,
or cause burns. Only cook these foods as
directed by a Cosori recipe.
Always properly lock and seal the lid before
pressure cooking.
Do not allow children to play with
the cooker. Always closely supervise
children who are near the cooker.
Never place your hands, face, or skin
over the pressure release valve when
cooking or releasing pressure.
Do not force the lid open. Only
open the lid after all pressure has
been released and the float valve has
dropped back down into the lid.
Only use the handles to move the
cooker. Do not touch hot surfaces.
Never move the cooker while it is
operating.
SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
Key Safety Points
• Do not immerse your cooker or its plug in
water or liquid.
• Unplug when not in use, and before cleaning.
Allow to cool before putting on or taking o
parts.
• Do not use your cooker if it is damaged or
not working correctly (or if the cord or plug is
damaged). Contact Customer Support (page
22).
• Only cook inside the included inner pot. Do
not use third-party parts or accessories, as this
may cause injuries.

the sealing ring is snugly fit inside the
sealing ring rack.
5. Remove the inner pot from the
pressure cooker housing, then take
out all accessories from the inner pot.
Remove the plastic packaging and
check for the following items:
• Rice Spoon
• Ladle

Figure 2.1
Figure 2.2
Figure 2.3

EN
There are 2 ways to release the pressure
inside the pot after cooking has finished.
Natural Release
1. Let the pressure cooker rest until the
float valve drops down. This will take
10-40 minutes, or longer depending on
how much food was cooked.
2. Once the float valve has gone down,
open the lid. [Figure 3.1]
CAUTION!
• DO NOT lean over the pressure
cooker or place exposed skin over
the pressure release valve when
releasing the pressure inside the
pot.
• DO NOT open the lid until the
pressure inside the pot has been
completely released. For your
safety, the lid will remain locked
until the float valve drops down.
• NEVER force the float valve down
while it is still up.
NOTE: Always use the natural release method for
foods that have a large liquid volume or a high starch
content (such as soups, porridge, or fruit jams).
Using the quick release method with these foods
may result in dangerous food splatter.
Quick Release
1. Keep your fingers away from the vent on
the pressure release valve. Carefully turn
the pressure release valve to . Steam
being released will be hot . [Figure 3.2]
2. Wait for the float valve to drop down.
Then open the lid. [Figure 3.1]

NOTE:
• Wash the inner pot before each use.
• When cooking, always fill the inner pot up to
the “2” line under “RICE CUP”. [Figure 4.1]
• DO NOT fill the inner pot above the “MAX”
line. If ingredients expand easily in water
(such as dry rice or pasta), do not fill above
the “10” line under “RICE CUP”. [Figure 4.1]
Rice Cup
• The “RICE CUP” guidelines inside the inner
pot are intended for the included rice cup.
When you fill the rice measuring cup twice
with rice and twice with water, this will reach
the “2” line under “RICE CUP”.
• The rice measuring cup holds 160 mL,
which is smaller than the standard US cup (1
rice cup = about 1 adult serving). The “RICE
CUP” guidelines should be used only with
the rice measuring cup, not for standard
measurements.
1. Place the inner pot into the housing.
2. Place ingredients into the inner pot.
3. Make sure the water collection cup,
