Refer to ‘Food Presets’ and ‘Cooking Presets’
section for preset settings recommendations.
If there is no visible light on any of the food
preset indicators, then the product is in manual
mode. Press a food preset button to return to
its default settings.
The steam or pressure release mode
programmed into the preset cooking modes
are selected for best results. Any changes
to the steam release mode may lead to food
spillage.
MANUAL PRESSURE COOK MODE
Pressure Cooking is a method of cooking
food in a small amount of liquid with a gasket
sealed lid that retains steam inside and builds
pressure. It is the increase in pressure that
raises temperature of the liquid and steam
inside to well above boiling point and therefore
allows food to be cooked up to 70% faster. This
means less energy is consumed and you will
enjoy substantial savings in both time and cost.
Because pressure cooked foods require very
little cooking liquid, more vitamins, minerals,
and other nutrients are retained, and the natural
flavours are enhanced.
1. To select the manual pressure cook mode,
press and hold the Pressure Cook button
for 2 seconds.
2. Adjust the cooking pressure by using the
PRESSURE/TEMPERATURE (+/-) buttons.
Pressure can be adjusted from 10 kPa (LOW)
to 80 kPa (HIGH).
3. The figure on the LED screen indicates the
preset cooking time for the selected setting.
Adjust the cooking time by using the TIME
(+ / -) buttons (next to the 4 digit display)
to reduce the cooking time or increase the
cooking time. Time can be adjusted up to 2
hours.
4. Press the STEAM RELEASE button to select
between ‘NATURAL’ , ‘AUTO QUICK’, and
PULSE steam release.
5. Place food into the removable cooking bowl
Ensure there is at least 1L of combined food
and liquid in the bowl.
6. Close the lid and turn the lid knob
clockwise to lock into place. The cooker
alert will sound when the lid has been
locked.
7. Ensure the pressure release valve is placed
on the lid in the closed position.
8. Press the START button to commence
cooking. The START/CANCEL button will
illuminate orange, ’PREHEAT’ will be lit.
NOTE
It is normal for the cooker to release small
bursts of steam as it stabilises.
9. If the lid has not been locked correctly, ‘LID’
indicator will flash and the audio alert will
beep, cooking will be paused until the lid
is in the correct position. Turn the lid knob
clockwise to lock the lid and commence
cooking.
10. Once the cooker has reached pressure, the
“PREHEAT’ indicator light will disappear,
the cooker alert will sound, the timer will
start counting down.
11. The time can be adjusted during the
pressure cook cycle by pressing the TIME
(+ / -) buttons. The cycle can be paused at
any time by pressing the START/CANCEL
button. To end the cycle press and hold
START/CANCEL for 2 seconds. If there
is already pressure in the vessel it will go
immediately to the steam release cycle.
12. At the end of the pressure cook cycle, the
cooker alert will sound, and steam will
be automatically released through the
pressure release valve. The steam icon will
blink, the timer will start counting up.
13. If NATURAL steam release is selected,
pressure will naturally subside in the vessel
without forcing steam through the pressure
