This cooker is not suitable for the preparation of apple compote,
cranberries, porridge (oat flakes), barley or other cereals (except those
listed on page 89), peas, pasta, macaroni or rhubarb. These foods
tend to foam and froth and could block the valve.
In the case of problems during cooking: remove the pressure cooker
from the heat source and allow it to cool.
Place the properly closed cooker on a heat source commensurate with the size
of the pressure cooker base. See underside of cooker base for correct size.
(See section 13) Next turn the heat source up to full power.
As food begins to boil, any air present in the pressure cooker firstly escapes
through the valve. The valve cap will then move up. Now, the pressure indicator
stem rises with increasing pressure inside the pressure cooker. Please observe:
after a short while the first red (pressure indication) line will become visible indicat-
ing that cooking level 1 has been reached.
The cooking time begins (see the cooking time table in section 15)
once the desired cooking level has been reached.
Meaning of cooking levels:
Cooking level 1
Gentle cooking at a low cooking pressure (0.4 bar).
Cooking level 1 is reached as soon as the first
red line on the pressure indicator stem is visible.
The first red line should always be visible during
the entire cooking time.
Cooking level 2
Rapid cooking at a high cooking pressure (0.8 bar).
Cooking level 2 is reached when both red lines on
the pressure indicator stem are visible. The second
red line should always be visible during the entire
cooking time.
To maintain the desired cooking level, the amount of heat applied to the pressure
cooker needs to be reduced accordingly.
A hissing sound accompanied by the escape of steam means that the maximum
operating pressure of 1.2 bar has been reached. Reduce the heat and/or
remove the pressure cooker from hob for a short time until the second red line
is just visible.
