NOTE: The below cooking times are approximate and depend on the size and/or variety of foods.
Use these cooking times as a reference only.
All the cooking times are for HIGH (15 psi) pressure cooking.
PROBLEM SOLUTION
If you have not added enough
liquid to the pressure cooker,
and the floating valve has not
risen, while the timer is
counting down.
1. Stop the pressure cooking by pressing the STOP/START button.
2. Turn the pressure regulator knob to STEAM, using short bursts, until the pressure is fully released.
3. ONLY THEN remove the lid and add approx. 1 cup (8 oz) of water or liquid. Stir to mix all food.
4. Place the lid back on, lock into position.
5. Press the SETTING PRESSURE button. The display will show the preset pressure of 15 psi.
Press "+" or "-" buttons to select the desired pressure of 15 psi, 7.5 psi or 2.5 psi. Press SETTING
PRESSURE button, the display will show the preset time of 00:10 (10 minutes of cooking time).
Press the"+" or "-” buttons and set the desired time.
6. Press the START/STOP button to begin cooking again.
If the steam is leaking from
under the cover, because the
cover is not properly closed,
the gasket isn’t positioned
properly or is damaged, or the
pressure cooker is overfilled.
1. UNPLUG THE POWER CORD FROM THE POWER OUTLET.
2. Turn the pressure regulator knob to STEAM, using short bursts, until the pressure is fully released.
3. ONLY THEN remove the lid. Check the gasket for any tears or cracks.
4. Check to make sure the gasket is positioned properly (p. 11)
5. If too full, remove excess liquid and continue cooking.
If you can’t open or remove
the cover.
NOTE: When trying to remove the lid, there could be a suction created between the inner pot and lid.
1. Make sure all of the pressure has been released. Perform the quick release by turning the
pressure regulator knob to STEAM, using short bursts, until the pressure is fully released.
2. If you still cannot open the lid, bring the contents of the cooker up to pressure by pressing the
SETTING PRESSURE button and setting the desired time. Press the START/STOP button.
3. Release the pressure completely as mentioned in #1 above.
4. If the cover still won’t come off, call customer service at 1-800-423-4248
- Always cook fresh fruit on low pressure.
- You may choose tougher, less expensive cuts of meat to be cooked on pressure setting, as the meat will break down and
get tender.
- When cooking beans, add a tablespoon of oil to reduce foaming during the cooking process.
