DURING AND
AFTER
COOKING
Ensure close supervision if you are using the pressure
cooker near children.
Your pressure cooker cooks using pressure. Improper use
may result in scalding injuries. Make sure the pressure
cooker is properly closed before use (see section
"Closing").
During cooking, check that the valve murmurs regularly.
If there is not enough steam being released, increase the
heat source slightly.
Do not cook food that risks blocking the outlets for the
safety devices:
- blueberries
- pearl barley,
- oat flakes,
- split peas,
- noodles,
- macaroni,
- spaghetti,
- rhubarb,
- currants.
Never use your pressure cooker to cook milk-based recipes
(such as rice pudding, semolina pudding...).
For stainless steel pot, never use coarse sea salt in your
pressure cooker, only use fine salt at the end of cooking.
Never use your pressure cooker to fry under pressure using
oil.
Do not use your pressure cooker for any other purpose
than the one it is meant for.
Do not put your pressure cooker in a hot oven.
Never use aluminium foil unsecured on a container in
your pressure cooker. Always secure with string.
Never use cling film in your pressure cooker.
Alcohol vapour is flammable. Bring to a boil about 2
minutes before fitting with the lid. Check your appliance
on a regular basis if you are making alcohol-based
recipes.
Only use the compatible heat source(s) listed in the user
guide.

AFTER
COOKING
Steadily turn the operating valve (A) selecting your
chosen decompression speed, to finish opposite the
pictogram mark - fig 10. If, when releasing steam, you
notice unusual projections, return the operating valve (A)
to the cooking with "Pressure Cooking" position, then
carry out fast decompression under cold water.
If the pressure indicator (D) does not go down, put your
pressure cooker under a cold water tap - fig 14.
Never interfere with the pressure indicator.
After cooking meats with an outer skin (e.g. beef tongue,
etc.), where there's a risk of swelling under pressure, don't
stab the meat when swollen to avoid being scalded.
Pierce the meat before cooking.
For foodstuffs that expand during cooking, such as rice,
pulses, dehydrated vegetables or compotes, pumpkin,
potatoes, and courgette, let your pressure cooker cool
down for a few minutes, then cool under cold water.
Methodically shake the pressure cooker each time before
opening to prevent bubbles of steam from overflowing
and burning you. This operation is particularly important
when steam is released quickly or after cooling down
under tap water.
Always be very careful when moving your pressure
cooker under pressure. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use the
handles and knobs. Use oven gloves when necessary.
For soups, we recommend you to do a fast release under
cold water (see section “ End of cooking with ‘pressure
cooking’ “).
Make sure operating valve (A) is in the decompression
position before opening the pressure cooker. The pressure
indicator (D) should be in the lowered position.
Never use force to open your pressure cooker. Make sure
the internal pressure has been released. The pressure
indicator (D) should be in the lowered position (see
section "Safety").

Cooking with
“Stewpot"*
Only possible with the non-stick coated pot
Turn the operating valve (A) to the cooking with
“Stewpot" position .
Make sure the pressure cooker is properly closed - Fig.
3before use.
Place your pressure cooker on a heat source set at low
heat.
Select the cooking time indicated in the recipe.
When 'stewpot' cooking, you can open your pressure
cooker at any time to stir, check whether the food is cooked or add
ingredients.
In case of difficulties opening the product rinse the gasket under water and
replace it in the lid without drying it - fig 19 and 15 and take care to insert
it under each of the grooves on the lid.
If the heat source is too high, the pressure cooker may lock (the pressure
indicator (D) rises and blocks the opening) and the lid handle may not work
or may not open the pressure cooker. In this case, reduce or turn off the heat
source. If you are using cast iron heating plates, remove the pressure
cooker from the heat source.
For pressure cookers with non stick coating (according to model): do not use
metallic utensils or sharp whisks. Do not drain your utensils by tapping them
on the side of the pot as this risks damaging it and causing leaks.
Never let fats burn until completely carbonised. The cooking fumes could be
dangerous to animals with a particularly sensitive respiratory system, such
as birds. Bird owners should keep them away from the kitchen.
Your pressure cooker is fitted with several safety devices:
Closing safety:
- If the lid is not positioned correctly, or if you forget to fold back the lid handle,
steam will leak from the edge of the pressure cooker and it may not increase
pressure.
- If you forget to fold the lid handle to the horizontal position, steam leaks.
Safety

14
Opening safety:
- If your pressure cooker is under pressure, the pressure indicator (D) is up and
the opening/closing lid handle (G) should not be used.
- Never try to forcibly open the pressure cooker.
- Above all do not touch the pressure indicator (D).
- Make sure that the interior pressure has fallen (pressure indicator (D) in
lowered position).
- The lid handles are safety components. Never change them yourself. Never
use any other models of lid handles.
- If you attempt to move the opening/closing lid handle (G) to a vertical
position while the pressure cooker is still under pressure, you are not able to
open it. This function is an additional safety measure.
- Move the lid handle back to a horizontal position and wait until the pressure
indicator (D) is in the lowered position.
Two safety measures against overpressure:
- First measure: the safety valve (E) releases the pressure -fig 20.
- Second measure: the gasket allows steam to escape from the lid - fig 20.
If one of the overpressure safety systems is triggered:
Turn off the heat source.
Allow the pressure cooker to cool completely.
Open.
Check and clean the operating valve (A), the steam release outlet (B), the
safety valve (E) and the gasket (I) - Fig. 16 - 17- 18. See section “Compulsory
checks before each use”.
If, after these checks and cleaning, your product leaks or no longer works,
take it to an TEFAL Approved Service Centre.
Recommendations for use
1 - Steam is very hot when it leaves the operating valve. Watch out for
the jet of steam.
2 - While the pressure indicator is high, you cannot open the pressure
cooker.
3 - As with any cooking utensil, ensure close supervision if you are using
your pressure cooker near children.
4 - To move your pressure cooker, use the two pot handles.
5 - Never leave food in your pressure cooker. Never carry your pressure
cooker by the lid handle.
6 - Never use bleach or products containing chlorine, as these will alter
the quality of the steel.
7 - Do not leave the lid soaking in water.
8 - Change the gasket every year or if a cut appears.
9 - You should only clean your pressure cooker when it is cold and empty.
10 - Make sure you get your pressure cooker checked in a TEFAL Approved
Service Centre after 10 years of use.

*depending on model 15
EN
To ensure the correct operation of your pressure cooker, follow these cleaning
and maintenance recommendations after each use.
Wash your pressure cooker after each use using warm water with a little
washing-up liquid added. Follow the same procedure for the basket*.
Do not use bleach or chlorine-containing chemicals.
Do not heat your pot when empty.
To clean the inside of the stainless steel pot:
Wash with a scouring pad and washing-up liquid.
If the interior of the steel pot has an iridescent sheen or white marks (mineral
deposit), clean it using white vinegar.
To clean the inside of the aluminium pot with a non stick coating:
To prolong the product's lifespan, we recommend washing by hand.
Wash with hot water, washing-up liquid and a soft sponge.
Do not use scouring powder or abrasive sponges.
If you have burned some food, fill the pot with hot water and leave to soak.
Then clean with washing-up liquid.
The browning and marks which may appear following long use do
not affect the operation of the pressure cooker.
For pressure cookers with non stick coating (according to model):
the slight scratches and abrasions that may appear with use do not
affect the coating's non stick performance.
Cleaning
You can wash the stainless steel pot and the basket in the dishwasher.
Wear of the exterior coating as a result of the contact between
the lid and pot is normal.
Do not put the pot with a non stick coating (according to model) in the
dishwasher, because detergents tablets contain substances that are
very aggressive and corrosive for aluminium parts.
The intensive use of your pot with a non stick coating (according to
model) may slightly alter the colour of the coating (yellowing,
staining).
