Improper use may result in scalding injury.
Make certain unit is properly closed
before operating. See instructions For
Use.
• Never fill the unit above MAX line in the
Inner Pot. When using foods that expand
during cooking such as rice or dried
beans, follow the recipe for “pressure
cooking” those products, and as a rule
of thumb, do not fill the unit above the
“halfway” point. Overfilling may cause
clogging, allowing excess pressure to
develop.
• Be Aware that certain foods, such as
apple-sauce, cranberries, pearl barley,
oatmeal or other cereals, split peas,
noodles, macaroni, rhubarb, and
spaghetti, can foam, froth, sputter, and
clog the pressure release device (steam
vent). Recipes using these items must be
followed carefully to avoid problems.
• Always check the pressure release devices
for clogs before use
• Do not open the pressure cooker until the
unit has cooled and all internal pressure
has been released. If the unit is difficult to
open, this indicates that the cooker is still
pressurised – do not force it open. Any
pressure in the cooker can be hazardous.
Please read these instructions.
• Do not use this pressure cooker for pressure
frying with oil.
