KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS
The following safety measures should always be abided when using the pressure cooker:
1. Use side handles when lifting, and never touch the surfaces of the cooker when heated.
2. Never place the pressure cooker on or near electric burners or gas, or in an oven while it is on.
3. Use on counter-tops only.
4. Only use the pressure cooker for its designated use.
5. Do not attempt to pressure fry or deep fry with oil in the pressure cooker.
6. Make sure that the cord does not touch hot surfaces or hang over the counter or table.
7. Only use the cooker in 110-120V~/60Hz electrical systems (for North America).
8. Never operate the cooker if the cord or plug is damaged. If the cooker is malfunctioning
or compromised in any way, do not use again until it is repaired.
9. Only open the cooker after it has cooled down and all the pressure has been released.
The float valve will drop, and the lid will turn easily when this happens. Never force the lid open.
Please refer to “Get Started,” on pages 11-13.
10. The amount of food and liquid in the inner pot should never pass the 2/3 line prior to
cooking. Beans, rice, vegetables or any other foods that expand during the cooking
process, should not be added past the 1/2 line. If overfilled, steam cannot be released
properly, and the cooker can become overly pressurized. This can damage the cooker
and cause burns and injuries to the user. Note that these fill level warnings only apply
to pressurized cooking programs.

INITIAL TEST RUN

5. Personalize the pressure cooking programs as follows:
6. After pressing the settings, press the Start/Cancel button. The cooker will beep 3
times and display On to indicate that the cooker has entered the preheating cycle.
Depending on the amount of food and its temperature, the preheating cycle can last
anywhere from a few minutes to forty minutes or more. As the cooker heats up and
pressure builds, the float valve will rise.
When working pressure is reached, the cooker enters the cooking cycle and displays the
remaining cook time in minutes. While in Soup/Broth, Meat/Stew, Multigrain, and Rice and
Steam modes, it will pulse the steam release and beep 5 seconds before pulsing.
When the cooking cycle has finished, the cooker will enter the Keep Warm mode (if the
selected program includes this function). The screen will display the elapsed time
(example: 00:02). After 10 hours, the cooker will turn OFF. The screen will turn black
after three minutes if not pressed.
**Users can switch Keep Warm ON/OFF (for programs with Keep Warm mode), and adjust
texture, pressure level and cooking time at any time during the cooking process.
7. Release the pressure using one of the following methods:
Auto Quick Release: Pressure is released quickly to minimize the overcooking of food
with short cook times. For the Bean/Chili, Meat/Stew, Poultry, and Sterilize settings,
it will release steam automatically when cook time ends.
Auto Pulse Release: Pressure is released in bursts to minimize the overcooking of foods
with short cook times. It works during cooking in Rice, Soup, Multigrain settings and
activates when the cook time ends in Soup/Broth, Multigrain, Pasta, Rice menu.
Manual Quick Release: Press the Pressure Release button for 3 seconds until it
beeps or turn the steam release handle to the venting position to release steam until the
float valve drops down.
Manual Pulse Release: Repeatedly press the Pressure Release button and steam
release burst.
Natural Release: Allow the cooker to cool down naturally until the float valve drops down
in the Manual program if the Pressure Release button is not pressed and the steam
release handle is not turned to the venting position. This may take 10 to 40 minutes, or
even more, depending on the amount of food in the cooker. This is not recommended as it
delays the process considerably.

SAFETY AND COOKING TIPS
•Use utmost caution while putting the steam release handle in the Venting position. Make
sure your hands and face do not come into contact with the steam by keeping them clear of
the steam release openings. Severe injuries may occur if these instructions are not followed.
•The pressure inside the cooker MUST be fully released before you attempt to open the lid.
The lid will remain locked until the float valve drops down. Never force the lid open.
•The inner pot may stick to the lid when it is opened due to suction caused by cooling. In
this case, position the steam release handle to Venting. The vacuum should then release
itself.
• Should the float valve become stuck, simply press the pressure release button or move the
steam release valve into the Venting position. After the steam has cleared, move the float
valve down using a long stick or pen.
•You must add at least 1 cup / 250 ml of liquid for enough steam to be produced to cook
under pressure. Suitable liquids to use include cooking sauces, beer or wine, fruit or
vegetable juice, and broths. Oils and oil-based sauces will not meet the minimum liquid
requirements as their water content is too low.
• Large quantities of food or food that is has frozen or chilled will need more time to cook
than small amounts of food, or food that is at room temperature.
•Always allow adequate time for cooling before serving after using the Delay Start
program.
•We do not recommend the Delay Start program be used when cooking frothy, thick liquids
such as porridge or oatmeal, and advise that you keep watch on these foods while they are
cooking.
Before cleaning, always unplug your pressure cooker and remove from the wall. Let it cool
to room temperature before proceeding.
•The inner pot and the lid are both safe for dishwasher use.
•Wash the inner pot and lid with a gentle detergent after removing them from the base.
Rinse o with water and then gently pat dry with a dish towel or cloth.
•To prevent rust from forming on the rim of the exterior cooker, wipe the base rim of the
inner cooker dry with a cloth.
•Separate the sealing ring and anti-block shield from the bottom of the lid. Repeat
washing instructions for inner pot and lid.
•Make sure that the sealing ring is in the appropriate position on the underside of the lid
at all times.
• To wash, wipe the outside of the cooker with a damp sponge or cloth.
•Refrain from using scouring pads, powders or chemical detergents on the cooker.
• Check the steam release and float valves regularly to ensure that they are clean and
undamaged.
