SAFETY FIRST
• Appliance is not to be used by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or
instruction.
• Always attach power cord to appliance first, then
plug cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn
off by pressing KEEP WARM/CANCEL, then remove
plug from wall outlet.
• Do not touch hot surfaces of appliance. Use side
handles for carrying.
• Do not place appliance on or near a hot gas or
electric burner, or in a heated oven.
• Intended for counter-top use only. Do not operate
appliance on an unstable surface.
• Do not use appliance for anything other than
intended use.
• Never deep fry or pressure fry in the appliance
using oil.
• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or
touch hot surfaces.
• Do not operate appliance with damaged cord or
plug, after it has malfunctioned or if it has been
damaged in any manner.
• Do not open appliance until it has cooled, and all
internal pressure has been released. If floating
pressure valve is still up or lid is difficult to turn, it is
an indication that appliance is still pressurised. Do
not force it open.
• Make sure pressure valve handle is in sealing
position for all pressure-cooking functions.
• Unplug from power outlet when not in use and
before cleaning.
• For all pressure-cooking functions, total amount of
pre-cooked food and liquid in inner pot should not
pass the 4/5 line. When cooking food that expands
while cooking (like rice, beans or some vegetables)
inner pot should not pass the 16 Cup line. Overfilling
may risk clogging steam release and causing excess
pressure. It may also cause leakage, personal
injuries or damage to appliance. These fill level
warnings do not apply to non-pressure-cooking
functions.
• Do not immerse appliance base in water. To protect
against electrical shock, do not immerse cord,
power plug or appliance in any liquid.
• Allow appliance to cool before putting on or taking
off parts, and before cleaning.
• For indoor household use only. Not intended for
outdoor use.
• Extreme caution must be used when moving an
appliance containing hot liquids.
• Appliance cooks under pressure. Improper use may
result in scalding injuries. Make sure lid is properly
closed before operating.
• Use of accessories and parts that are not supplied
by the manufacturer may cause the appliance
to malfunction or serious hazardous situations
including personal injury.
• Be aware that certain foods including apple sauce,
cranberries, pearl barley, oats/other cereals, split
peas, noodles, macaroni, rhubarb and spaghetti
can foam, froth, sputter and clog steam release.
These foods should not be cooked under pressure
functions unless as directed in cooker recipes.
• Always check pressure valve and float valve for
clogging before use.
• If appliance begins to malfunction during use,
immediately unplug the cord. Do not use or attempt
to repair a malfunctioning appliance.
• CAUTION: HOT SURFACES
Appliance generates heat and escaping steam
during use. Proper precautions must be taken to
prevent the risk of personal injury, fires and
damage to property.

24hours (except for SAUTÉ function).
14.After cooking, the machine will automatically stay
on “Keep Warm” at a temperature of 60-80 C.
OPENING THE LID AFTER COOKING
• Before opening the appliance, ensure pressure
cooking function has completed or press Warm/
Cancel button to stop a program. There are two ways
to release pressure before opening the lid:
1. QUICK RELEASE
Turn pressure valve handle to VENTING position
to let out steam until floating valve pressure drops
down (see below).
Caution: Keep hands and face away from hole on
top of pressure valve when using, the quick release
method. Escaping steam is very hot and can cause
scalds. During pressure releasing process, protect
your skin by avoiding any contact with escaping
steam or stainless-steel portion of lid. Press down
gently on lid and turn clockwise until lid meets
resistance. Lift carefully and place aside. Avoid
personal injury resulting from hot unit surfaces and
dripping liquids. For food with large liquid volume
or starch content (e.g. porridge or congee), use the
natural release method instead as thick liquid may
splatter out.
2. NATURAL RELEASE
Allow cooker to cool down naturally until pressure
valve drops down. This may take up to 15 to 40
minutes, or even more, depending on the amount of
food in cooker. After cooking has finished, make sure
Keep Warm mode is switched off.
Caution: DO NOT try to open lid until pressure inside
pot is completely released. As a safety mechanism,
until the pressure valve drops down, lid is locked and
cannot be opened.
PRESSURE COOKING
RICE
• The below tables show how many cups (using cup
supplied) of dry rice and water produce a certain
quantity of cooked rice and required cooking time to
do this. For rice recipes, see page 9.
Tips:
1. For fluffier rice add a little extra water, reduce water
for firm rice.
2. We do not recommend cooking wild rice alone as it
requires a significant amount of water.
3. Ensure that the rice is evenly spread across the
bottom of the inner pot and not heaped to one side.
4. Always wash rice before cooking, this removes
starch preventing clumping.

• Tip: cook beans in bulk, portion out in containers
and freeze to store. For recipes, see pages 8.
MEAT/STEW
• The versatile function allows you to cook at the
temperature your recipe requires for tender meats
and poultry. Try the pulled chicken recipe on page 11
to eat immediately or save for sandwiches the next
day. Use time key to adjust cooking time depending
of type and quantity of meat. Ensure lid is locked
securely in place and steam release handle is in
sealing position.
STEAM
• Pour ½ cup water into inner pot and secure steam
rack. We recommend using the quick release lid
opening method to release steam and remove the lid
once cooking is complete (allowing appliance to cool
naturally may overcook your food).
• Exercise extreme caution when releasing steam
using this method. Do not let the inner pot dry out
during the steaming process.
• Tip: when steaming fish, ensure the fillet is
seasoned prior to steaming. Lay fillets so they do
not overlap, cook for 8-10 minutes or until the fish is
flaky and opaque in colour.
• Poultry can also be steamed, making sure all pieces
are a similar size with visible fat and skin removed.
Lay so there is no overlapping, and cook for 18-20
minutes for thigh, 20-25 minutes for breast, and 30-
35 minutes for drumsticks. Pierce the thickest part.
If juice runs clear, poultry is cooked. For a browned
appearance, sear using the SAUTÉ function.
• Fresh or frozen dumplings and buns can be
steamed. Place on pieces of baking paper to avoid
sticking to the tray. Fresh buns and dumplings
will take approximately 10-15 minutes and frozen
dumplings 10-20 minutes.
• When steaming fresh or frozen vegetables, try to
ensure they are cut to a standard size for even
cooking. When steaming frozen vegetables, no
thawing is needed. Adjust cooking time to personal
taste.
POTATO/VEGGIES
• Cook tender potatoes, pumpkin or your favourite
root vegetables. Create homemade fries, mash, or
toss your roasted potatoes in butter and fresh herbs.
See pages 9 for recipes. Use the cooking time key
to adjust cooking time depending on recipe and
quantity. Ensure lid is locked securely in place and
pressure valve is in sealing position.

Corn 2 small cobs 20-25
SOUP/PORRIDGE
• Adjust cooking time as necessary for your recipe.
Ensure lid is locked securely in place and steam
release handle is in the sealing position. It is
recommended to use the manual release lid opening
method to remove lid once cooking is complete.
Turning pressure valve to the venting position may
cause soup or porridge to release with the steam
and block the vent. For recipes, see page 8.
POULTRY
• Cook a whole chicken or small turkey in the large 8
litre capacity pot. Adjust the cooking time depending
on the size of your poultry. Ensure lid is locked
securely in place and pressure is in sealing position.
See recipe on page 12.
NON-PRESSURE COOKING
SLOW COOK
• Designed to layer flavours, a technique professionals

6
use to enhance taste. Use appliance as a slow
cooker for meals such as lamb shanks and curries.
Chicken or small pieces of meat will have the best
results when cooked for 3-4 hours. Larger pieces
such as lamb will have best results when cooked
for 6-8 hours. Note cooking times are approximate
only, times can vary depending on ingredients and
quantities. For recipes, see page 10.
SAUTÉ
• The SAUTÉ function requires lid to be open. SAUTÉ
ingredients in preparation for your slow cooked
meals. Brown or simmer meats and vegetables as
required.
ULTIMATE COOKER TIPS
• When opening lid, inner pot may adhere to lid. This
is caused by a vacuum effect while cooling.
• To release vacuum, move pressure valve to the
VENTING position.
• If floating pressure valve is stuck, move to VENTING
position. When steam is released, push the
floating valve down with a pin or long stick.
• Always add at least 1 cup (250 mL) of liquids so
enough steam can be generated to cook under
pressure. This could be water, cooking sauces, wine,
beer, stocks or juices of fruits and vegetables.
• Oils and oil-based sauces do not have enough water
content and will not count towards required liquid
volume.
• Pressure and cooking times will vary according to
temperature and quantity of the ingredients. Food
that is cold or frozen will take longer to cook than
food that is at room temperature.
• When using Delay Start program, allow enough
cooling time before serving.
• The Delay Start program is not recommended for
porridge, oatmeal or other foamy and thick liquids.
Cooking progress should be monitored when
cooking these foods.
CLEANING
• Unplug appliance after each use and allow to cool
completely. Do not clean appliance until it has
cooled.
WARNING
• Do not immerse appliance in water or other liquids.
This could lead to electrical shocks.
• Clean exterior of appliance with a damp cloth once
cooled.
• Remove the pressure valve and clean opening with
a pin to remove any blockage that may have built up
during cooking process.
• Hand wash inner pot, lid, steam rack, rice paddle
and soup ladle.
• Soak inner pot in hot water and bicarbonate soda
to remove resistant odours after cooking strong
smelling foods.
• To clean the lid, remove the silicone gasket and
hand wash separately in a mild detergent and
dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive scourers or
cleaners.
STORAGE
• Cool before storing.
• Remove cord from appliance for easy storage.
