Before cooking
Before each use, remove the operating valve (A) - Fig. 11 and check the
steam release valve (B) is not blocked - Fig. 13.
Check that the safety valve bearing is mobile (see sections “Cleaning” and
“Compulsory checks before each use”) - Fig. 18.
Add your ingredients and the liquid.
Close your pressure cooker - Fig. 2.
In case of difficulties closing the lid, 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.
Position the operating valve (A) - fig 8.
Cooking with
"Pressure Cooking"
Turn the operating valve (A) to the cooking with "Pressure Cooking" position
- fig 9. The pressure cooker operates at 65kPa / 9 lbs (psi).
Make sure your pressure cooker is properly closed before use - Fig. 2.
Place your pressure cooker on a heat source then set to maximum power.
For models equipped with a timer*: program the cooking time indicated in
the recipe (see section "Using the timer").
A clicking noise and steam emitted from the pressure indicator are normal
when bringing the cooker up to pressure, as the air escapes before cooking.
During cooking with "Pressure Cooking"
When the operating valve (A) is constantly emitting steam and making a
regular sound (PSCHHHT), lower the heat source.
Select the cooking time indicated in the recipe.
During cooking, check that the valve murmurs regularly. If there is not
enough steam being released, increase the heat source slightly; if there is
too much steam, reduce it.
End of cooking with "Pressure Cooking"
To release the steam:
When the heat source has been turned off, you have two options:
• Gradual pressure release:
This is used for stews, vegetables, meat joints and fish dishes.
Gradually turn the operating valve (A), adjusting the speed that the pressure
is released by how far you open the valve, until the steam release symbol
is is opposite the positioning mark (C) (see diagrams on page 12).
When the pressure indicator (D) drops down, your pressure cooker is no
longer under pressure.
