FR Y (normal pressure )
The REDMOND RMC -110E pressure and multicooker has a spe cial automatic
FR Y mode for cooking f ood (meat, vegetables, poultry , seafood) at normal pres-
sure in a small quantity of oil or fat. The default cooking time in FR Y mode is
20minutes. For deep fat-frying use the special basket with detachable handle
(provided).
NOTE: Do not close the lid when cooking in FR Y mode. This c ould trigger the
automatic safety lid-locking system (you will be unable to visually monitor
Wipe the appliance with a damp cloth and rinse the bowl. Leave to dry . Clean
the appliance completely before rst use to avoid bad smells (see Care of the
Appliance).
After transporting or storing at low temperatures, keep the appliance at room
temperature for at least 2 hours before switching it on.
Place the appliance on a hard, even, horizontal surfac e so that the steam from
the valve will not come int o contact with wallpaper , decorativ e coverings,
electronic de vices or other items or materials which c ould be damaged by high
humidity or temperatures.
Before use, make sure there are no chips or other defects on the outside or
visible inside parts of the multicooker . There should be nothing caught betw een
the bowl and the heating element.
I I . USING THE MUL TIC OOKER
Opening/Closing the Lid
The lid seals hermetically , allowing high pressure to build up inside the pressure
and multicooker . When the pressure is higher than atmospheric pressure, the
lid locks automatically . If, when cooking is complete, the lid does not open
easily , this means that the pressure inside is still too high. Open the steam-
release valve and wait for the pressure to fall.
T o close the lid, release it and turn the locking lever clockwise as far as it will go.
T o open the lid, turn the locking lever count erclockwise as far as it will go and
open the lid with the handle.
NOTE: Before opening the lid, make sure the steam-release valve is open and
no steam is escaping from it.
The applianc e heats up when it is working. Do not touch the metal part of the
lid during and just after cooking. Always use the handle to open the lid.
Do not lift the appliance by the lid handle. Use the handles on the side of the
appliance to lift and carry it.
Steam-R elease V alve
The REDMOND RMC -M110E pressure and multicoo ker is equipped with a steam-
release valve on the lid. By switching the valve swit ch to HIGH PRESSURE — valve
closed or NORMAL PRESSURE — valve open, the appliance can be used in two
different ways: with the valve closed, it works as a pressure cooker; with the
valve open it works as a multicook er.
The clearance in the switch of the steam-release valve is not a defect.
After cooking under pressure, open the steam-release valve to normalise the
pressure inside. When cooking dishes that do not re quire much liquid (pilaf,
etc.), the steam-release valv e can be opened as soon as cooking is over . If liquids
or puré es are being cooked, let the appliance cool down for 5-10 minut es before
opening the valve. Otherwise hot liquid may be released together with the
steam.
NOTE: When opening the steam-release valve during or after cooking, there
may be a sudden release of hot steam. Be careful.
Time Delay
When selecting an automatic c ooking mode, you can set the Time Delay function
from 1 minute to 24 hours in 1-minute intervals (default time delay — 2 hours).
1 .
After selecting the mode and c ooking time, press the “TIMER / KEEP WARM”
button. The Time Delay time will appear on the display . The hour indica-
tor will ash.
2 . P ress the button to set the required hours, and then minutes (press the
“TIMER / KEEP WARM” button again). T o change the time quickly, press
and hold down the “+” or “ – ” button.
3 . A few se conds after setting the time delay , the gures on the display will
stop ashing and the countdown timer will begin.
4 . T o cancel the settings, press the “REHEA T/CANCEL ” butt on.
The T ime Delay function is not available in FRY , POP CORN or BAKE, or when
using the reheat function.
Avoid using the T ime Delay function when the recipe involves ingredients with
a short shelf-life.
When setting the time delay , remember that the selected mode and the
cooking-time c ountdown only start when the applianc e has reached the required
temperature and pressure.
If the timer is set at 24 hours, the minutes cannot be changed.
K eep W arm
When a cooking mode is complet e (as indicated by a signal and the mode in-
dicator light going out), the K eep W arm function begins (the display sho ws the
keep warm time in 1-minute intervals). This function can keep the temperature
of a dish at 60-80°С for 8 hours.
The Ke ep Warm function can be int errupted by pressing the “REHEAT/C ANCEL ”
button: the indicator light will go out and the appliance will swit ch to standby .
If required, the K eep W arm function can be switched off by pressing the “TIMER
/ KEEP WARM” button (the “REHEA T/CANCEL ” indicat or light goes out). T o switch
the keep-warm function back on, press the “TIMER / KEEP W ARM” button again.
R eheat
This will heat cold food to 60-80°С and keep it warm for 8 hours.
1 . Place the f ood in the bowl and place inside the appliance, making sure
that it is straight and ts se curely onto the heating element.
2 . Close and lock the lid. Set the steam-release valve to HIGH PRESSURE.
Plug the appliance in.

reheat countdown will appear on the display in 1-minute intervals.
4 .
T o switch off the reheat function, press the “REHEA T/CANCEL ” button
(theindicator light will go out).
Appliance P rotection System
The REDMOND RMC -M110E pressure and multicooker is e quipped with a mul-
tiple protection system. When cooking under pressure, if the temperature or
pressure inside the cooker e xceed the re quired level, the cooking process will
be delayed until the levels return t o normal. If this does not happen within a
certain time, the appliance will stop working.
The appliance is also equipped with additional ov erheating protection in FR Y
and POPC ORN modes. If the appliance overheats it will stop cooking and should
cool down c ompletely (appro ximately 15 minutes) bef ore you can use either of
these modes again. If “HH” appears on the display in FR Y or POPCORN mode, it
means the appliance is still too hot and the locking mode is on. This does not
apply to other c ooking modes.
Cooking Under P ressure
When the steam-release valve is closed, the appliance is hermetically sealed
and high pressure builds up inside as it heats up. W ater is boiled into steam at
over 100°С and cooking time is more than halved. This, in c onjunction with a
restricted oxy gen supply , means the food retains as many of its nutrients as
possible.
General Rules for C ooking Under Pressure:
• There must be water or some other liquid in the pressure and
multicooker bowl (at least 2 measuring glasses).
• Food cannot be fried in oil under pressure. If required, chopped
vegetables can be lightly fried in a small quantity of oil or stock on the
bottom of the pressure and multicook er in FRY mode with the lid open.
Then add the remaining ingredients, add liquid, close the lid and
continue cooking under pressure.
• The pressure and multicooker bowl should be lled to no more than
4/5 and no less than 1/5 full. When boiling food that swells or f orms a
