4. CLEANING, MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
Wash the sealing ring after each use in warm
water and detergent to remove any debris
from both the seal and the groove in which it
sits. The sealing ring lifts out and is put back
by easing in place under the rim of the lid.
Note: If the pressure cooker is not used for
a long period of time, the sealing ring may
need replacing as it can harden and then will
not form an air-tight seal. Replace the seal
immediately if it is damaged or has changed
its shape.
The Lid
Rinse the lid under running warm water.
Do not immerse the lid in water.
The Safety Devices
Steam pipe
The pipe is under the pressure regulator.
Remove the pressure regulator by pressing
down gently at the same time turning it to the
Ø removing position and then lift upwards.
Check before each use that the pipe is not
blocked. Hold it up to the light and make sure
that the pipe is clean and free of food debris.
Clean it with a needle or skewer, especially
after cooking foods which produce scum
(puddings, rice, lentils, etc). Check that the
hole at the base of the pipe is clean.
Pressure regulator
The pressure regulator must be cleaned after
each use. After lifting the pressure regular off
the lid, clean and rinse the pressure regulator
under running water.
Check that the interior spring loaded part
moves freely by pressing down. Replace it
on the lid.
Loose handles
Should the handles become loose over
the time, use a cross head screwdriver to
tighten the screws. Do not over tighten.
The supporting handle and the lower handle
screws are on the underside of the handle.
The two lid handle screws are inside the lid
rim. Do not attempt to loosen the lid handle
screws or remove the lid handle.
The pressure cooker body
The pressure cooker body and metal part of
the lid are made of stainless steel. The exterior
of the pressure cooker can be cleaned with an
appropriate stainless steel cleaner to maintain
its original finish.
Storage
Please make sure all parts are thoroughly
dried before storage. To avoid damage to
the sealing ring, do not store your pressure
cooker with the cover fitted in place; instead,
place the cover upside down, with the seal
uppermost and store the pressure cooker in
a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
