• After cooking meat which has an outer layer
of skin (such as ox tongue), which could
swell due to the effects 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.
• Do not use the appliance to fry food in oil.
Only browning is allowed.
• In browning mode, be careful of risks of
burns caused by spattering when you add

• During cooking and automatic steam
release at the end of cooking, the appliance
releases heat and steam. Keep your face
and hands away from the appliance to
avoid scalding. Do not touch the lid during
cooking.

the lid and the housing to leave the lid ajar.
This can permanently damage the gasket.
• Do not touch the safety devices, except
while cleaning and maintaining the

the rim of the lid, unplug the power cord at
once and check whether the appliance is
clean. If necessary, send the appliance to an
Approved Service Centre for repair.
• Do not carry the appliance by holding it by
the handles of the removable pot. Always
use the two side handles on the housing
of the appliance. Wear oven mitts if the
appliance is hot. For more safety, makesure
that the lid is locked before transporting the
appliance.
• If pressure is released continuously through
the valve of the appliance (for more than 1
minute) while pressure] cooking, send the
appliance to a service centre for repair.

your approved service centre.
