TROUBLESHOOTING/FAQS COOKING TIPS
• Always check that the cooking pot is in the Pressure Cooker before adding in food or liquid.
• When pressure cooking do not exceed the 3/5 line on the inside of the cooking pot.
• When pressure cooking foods that foam, froth or bubble, such as rice, pasta and beans, fill the
cooking pot halfway or less.
• When pressure cooking, use high pressure for meat and pasta and low pressure for delicate
foods like scallops.
• Use the Steam function to make desserts like cheesecakes and lava cakes.
• Do not fill the Pressure Cooker more than the two-thirds full of food or pack food too tightly
into the cooking pot. Doing so may prevent the Pressure Cooker from operating properly and
affect how the food cooks.
• Cut food into uniform pieces so that it cooks evenly.
• To properly use a food thermometer with meat, place the thermometer in the thickest part of
the meat, avoiding bone or fat. When the food is irregularly shaped, like a roast beef, check
the temperature in several spots.
• Using a little oil, sear poultry and meats before pressure cooking, then deglaze the pot with
liquid to intensify flavor.
• Add dairy ingredients at the very end of the cooking cycle because dairy willt curdle under
pressure.
• Q: What does it mean when the screen displays an “E03” error code?
A: Food may be burned on the bottom of the cooking pot indicating the appliance is over-
heating and malfunctioning. Turn off the Pressure Cooker and once the cooking pot has
completely cooled, clean and remove burnt food.
• Q: What does it mean when the screen displays an “E01,” “E02” or “E04” error code?
A: The Pressure Cooker is malfunctioning. Turn off the Pressure Cooker and unplug it.

• Q: Why are there clicking and crackling sounds coming from the appliance while it is
cooking?
A: There may be condensation or bits of food that were splattered on the cooking pot
before it was placed in the appliance. Wipe the external surface of the cooking pot before
inserting it into the Pressure Cooker.
