1. How pressure cooking works
The basic principle of pressure cooking hasn’t changed since the first pressure cooker was invented. Foods are
cooked in a tightly closed vessel under pressure, at temperatures of over 100°C, since the high pressure that deve-
lops inside the pot raises the boiling point of water.This shortens their cooking times substantially. Cooking with a
pressure cooker saves a great deal of (cooking) time – about 70 percent on average.

The exclusion of harmful atmospheric oxygen and the shorter cooking times also make it possible to cook the
foods very gently.Vitamins, minerals and aroma are preserved to a far greater extent than with conventional cooking
methods. And you can taste this, too, for the foods’ own flavor is surprisingly intense.

Closing the cooker
See Fig. D
To put the lid on the cooker, hold it slightly slanted, place the positioning aid in the groove on the pot handle, and
then lower it.The correct position for the lid is also indicated by red dots on the positioning aid and the pot handle. If
these dots are perfectly aligned, the lid can be put on the pot.

5. Information on using your pressure cooker
Safety mechanisms
Your vitavit®pressure cooker is equipped with various mechanisms that automatically make your pressure cooker
safe. Before you use the pressure cooker, and each time you use it, be sure to check that the following safety me-
chanisms are functioning properly. Never alter these in any way. Make sure that the control valve and the lid handle
are properly and firmly attached before you begin to cook.You will find information on this in Chapter 10.
Control valve (Fig. A-5)

Silicone gasket (Fig. A-20) and safety nubs (Fig. A-17)
See Fig. K
Make sure that the silicone gasket and the edge of the lid are clean, that the silicone gasket has not been damaged,
and that the safety nubs can move freely. Insert the silicone gasket so that it lies completely flat, under the part of the
edge that curves inward, on the inside of the lid.The silicone gasket must fit in front of the safety nubs, that is, pressed
away from the edge of the lid.
Filling capacity
See Fig. L
Please note the following information on filling amounts. A scale found on the inside of the pot will make it easier to
measure these amounts.
„min“
Depending on the diameter of the pressure cooker, at least 200-300 ml of liquid is necessary to produce steam,
regardlessofwhetheryouareusinganinsetornot.Neverusethepressurecookerwithouthavingthisminimum

Information on using your pressure cooker
„max“
The pressure cooker may only be filled up to ⅔full to function safely (see „max“ marking).
„½“
For foods that foam or expand during cooking, such as rice, legumes, broths, or dried vegetables, the pressure cooker
may only be filled half full (see „½“ marking).
Important:
Never cook without sufficient liquid, and make sure that the liquid in the pressure cooker never steams away
completely. Otherwise, the food may burn and the cooker, handles and burner can be damaged (see safety inst-
ructions).
Suitable stoves
The fully encapsulated CookStar all-stove base ensures optimal heat absorption, distribution and storage and can be
used on all kinds of stoves, including induction.The integrated expansion joints, seen as a star on the bottom of the
cooker, ensure that the base will be absolutely stable.The proper contact between the base and the burner is thus
ensured – for the best of cooking results.
Regulating the heat source
Heat source levels
1-12 levels 1-9 levels 1-6 levels 1-3 levels
Browning (open cooker) 9-12 6-9 4-6 2-3
Building steam, expelling air 12 963
Continuing to cook, steaming,
heating up, thawing 1-6 1-4 1-3 ½ - 1 ½
The indicated settings should serve as guidelines. For induction cooking, depending on the power, lower settings may
be used. Please also refer to the information given in the instructions for your stove.
Whether empty or containing fat, an open pressure cooker may never be heated at the highest energy level for
more than 2 minutes. If overheated, the base can turn golden.This discoloration does not affect how well the cooker
functions, however.
Solid/glass ceramic (radiation/halogen): The diameter of the burner should be the same as or smaller than the
diameter of the pot base.
Gas stove: Place the cooker in the center, and make sure that the flames do not extend up the sides of the cooker.
