• ALWAYS ensure the INNER POT is in place before cooking.
• Food with skins (e.g sausages, chicken and fruit) MUST be pierced before cooking. Not piercing
the skin may result in the food expanding and may cause splashing of hot food after the lid is
released.
• Do not overfill the inner pot.
• The lid must be closed fully before selecting a cooking function. Gently lower the lid and turn it
anti-clockwise until it clicks into place.
• Ensure the pressure release valve is in the closed position (pressure cooking functions only),
and check that it sits down correctly to seal the opening.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

• For both methods, give the cooker a few gentle shakes while holding the base unit handles to release
any residual steam before opening the lid. There could still be steam held under the food that has not yet
broken the surface. Without gentle shaking, this steam could come to the surface even several seconds
after the lid has been removed.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
• When the programme is finished and you wish to commence pressure release press the “Cancel” button to cancel
the Keep Warm function.
• When releasing the pressure valve, always use tongs and please wear oven gloves to turn the pressure valve to the
open position. This will protect against hot steam. The valve will lift up slightly and steam will release. The lid won’t
open until the steam has vented and pressure has released.
• When opening the lid food will be hot, please always wear oven gloves and an apron to protect against any
splashing of the hot food.
Recommended for:
- Food with skins (e.g sausages, chicken and fruit) and
foods with large liquid volume or high starch content
(such as porridge, soup, pasta, rice, fruit and grains, and
also delicate foods such as meats and potato) can trap air
and cause the food to foam and expand which may cause
splashing of hot food after the lid is removed.
To avoid any splashing, after you have cancelled the
Keep Warm function leave the pressure release valve
in the closed position and allow pressure to release
naturally. This can take 15 minutes or more. Recipe
dependant.. When the float valve has dropped, move
the pressure release valve to open to ensure all the
pressure is released.
- The Lid can now be opened, if the lid does not open,
wait a few more minutes and try again. Never try to force
the lid o as a locked lid is a sign that the unit still has
some pressure.

• Do not use the appliance empty, without its inner
pot or without liquid inside the inner pot. This
could cause serious damage to the appliance.
• After cooking meat which has an outer layer of
skin (such as Ox tongue, bacon joints, chicken
etc.), which could swell due to the eects of
pressure, do not pierce the skin after cooking if
it appears swollen: you could get burnt. Pierce it
BEFORE cooking.
When cooking food with a thick texture (chick
peas, rhubarb, compotes, etc.), shake the
appliance slightly before opening it to ensure
that the food or cooking juices do not spurt out.
• Please be aware that quickly releasing the
