Before using your pressure cooker for the first time, wash all parts thoroughly in ½ cup
vinegar and hot, soapy water, rinse and dry.
Dry the silicone gasket well and replace it in the cover. Fill the pressure cooker with 2
cups of water and lock the cover in place.
Place on stove top at medium to high heat and bring to pressure. As the water begins
to heat, the air in the pressure cooker will escape through the pressure release valve
causing the knob to rise, rising to show the first red ring on the valve stem. At this
stage lower the heat to maintain this pressure, cook the water for a further ten minutes
at this pressure. Remove the pressure cooker from the heat source. Before opening,
take note that the pressure cooker cover can only be opened when the steam &
pressure has been released. ALWAYS DEPRESSURIZE THE PRESSURE COOKER
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO OPEN. Always open the cover away from you to allow
steam to escape. To check that the pressure has released, confirm that the release
valve knob has completely lowered to the top of the pressure cooker cover.
You can use one of the below methods.
Method 1:
Slow pressure release – Remove the pressure cooker from the heat source and allow it
to cool.
Method 2:
Normal pressure release – Use your finger or wooden spoon handle to push down
lightly on the knob. Hold it down until no more steam comes out.
Method 3:
Fast pressure release – Lean the pressure cooker over the sink and run warm water
around the outer edge ONLY of the cover. Note: Only wet the outer edge to prevent
water from being drawn into the pressure cooker!
