rice.
30 Electrical socket voltages can vary,
affecting the performance of your
product. To prevent possible illness,
use a probe to check that your

31 Should the unit emit black smoke,
unplug immediately and wait for
smoking to stop before removing the

or personal injury, ALWAYS use
protective hot pads or insulated oven
gloves and use available handles and
knobs.
33 Extreme caution must be used when

oil or other hot liquids and/or if the
cooker is under pressure. Improper
use, including moving the cooker, may
result in personal injury such as serious
burns. When using this appliance
to pressure cook, ensure the lid is
properly closed and locked in position
before use. Foods are under extreme

NOTE: If the unit is not open after
the cycle is over, the unit will default to
KEEP WARM and the heating element will
continue running.
We recommend inspecting the interior
of the lid and heating elements prior to
cooking with “wet cooking functions,”
which include Slow Cook, Steam, Sear/
Sauté, Pressure and all COMBI-STEAM
modes. If you see any food residue or oil
buildup, we recommend steam cleaning the
unit (see instructions below), then wiping
down the interior of the lid.
STEAM CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS:
1 Fill pot with 750ml of water.
2 Move SmartLid™ Slider to Air Fry/Stove
top.
3 Select STEAM, and set time to
30 minutes. Press START/STOP.
4 When time reaches zero and the unit
has cooled down, use a wet cloth or
sponge to wipe down the interior of the
lid and heating elements. CAUTION:
When cleaning the interior of the lid, do
not touch the fan.
5 Repeat steps 3 and 4 as needed and
spot clean as necessary.
CLEANING THE LID
Why is my unit taking so long to come to pressure? How long does it take to
come to pressure?
• Cooking times may vary based on the selected temperature, current temperature
of the cooking pot and temperature or quantity of the ingredients.
• Check to make sure the silicone ring is fully seated and flush against the lid. If installed
correctly, you should be able to tug lightly on the ring to rotate it.
• Check that the pressure lid is fully locked and the pressure release valve is in the SEAL
position when pressure cooking.
• Unit will not pressurise if there is not enough liquid.
Why is the time counting down so slowly?
• You may have set hours rather than minutes. When setting time, the display will show
HH:MM and the time will increase/decrease in minute increments.
How can I tell when the unit is pressurising?
• The display will show progress bar loading the building animation to indicate the unit is
building pressure.
"PrE" and moving lights are shown on the display screen when using the Pressure or
Steam function or any Combi-Steam mode Function.
• This indicates the unit is building pressure or preheating when using STEAM or
PRESSURE. When the unit has finished building pressure, your set cook time will
begin counting down.
There is a lot of steam coming from my unit when using the Steam function.
• It’s normal for steam to release through the pressure release valve during cooking.
Why can’t I open the lid after pressurising?
• As a safety feature, the lid will not unlock until the unit is completely depressurised. Turn
the pressure release valve to the VENT position to quick release the pressurised steam.
A quick burst of steam will spurt out of the pressure release valve. When the steam is
completely released, the unit will be ready to open.
Is the pressure release valve supposed to be loose?
• Yes. The pressure release valve’s loose fit is intentional; it enables a quick and easy
transition between SEAL and VENT and helps regulate pressure by releasing small
amounts of steam during cooking to ensure great results. Please make sure it is turned
as far as possible toward the SEAL position when pressure cooking and as far as
possible toward the VENT position when quick releasing.
The unit is hissing and not reaching pressure.
• Make sure the pressure release valve is turned to the SEAL position. If you’ve done this
and still hear a loud hissing noise, it may indicate the silicone ring is not fully in place.
Press START/STOP to stop cooking, VENT as necessary and open the lid. Press down
on the silicone ring, ensuring it is fully inserted and lies flat under the ring rack. Once
fully installed, you should be able to tug lightly on the ring to rotate it.
The unit is counting up rather than down.
• The cooking cycle is complete and the unit is in KEEP WARM mode.
How long does the unit take to depressurise?
• The time it takes to release pressure depends on the quantity of food in the unit and can
vary from recipe to recipe. Always ensure the float valve has dropped before trying to
remove the lid. If the unit is taking longer than normal to depressurise, unplug the unit
and wait until the float valve drops before opening the lid.

Why is my unit taking so long to come to pressure? How long does it take to
come to pressure?
• Cooking times may vary based on the selected temperature, current temperature
of the cooking pot and temperature or quantity of the ingredients.
• Check to make sure the silicone ring is fully seated and flush against the lid. If installed
correctly, you should be able to tug lightly on the ring to rotate it.
• Check that the pressure lid is fully locked and the pressure release valve is in the SEAL
position when pressure cooking.
• Unit will not pressurise if there is not enough liquid.
Why is the time counting down so slowly?
• You may have set hours rather than minutes. When setting time, the display will show
HH:MM and the time will increase/decrease in minute increments.
How can I tell when the unit is pressurising?
• The display will show progress bar loading the building animation to indicate the unit is
building pressure.
"PrE" and moving lights are shown on the display screen when using the Pressure or
Steam function or any Combi-Steam mode Function.
• This indicates the unit is building pressure or preheating when using STEAM or
PRESSURE. When the unit has finished building pressure, your set cook time will
begin counting down.
There is a lot of steam coming from my unit when using the Steam function.
• It’s normal for steam to release through the pressure release valve during cooking.
Why can’t I open the lid after pressurising?
• As a safety feature, the lid will not unlock until the unit is completely depressurised. Turn
the pressure release valve to the VENT position to quick release the pressurised steam.
A quick burst of steam will spurt out of the pressure release valve. When the steam is
completely released, the unit will be ready to open.
Is the pressure release valve supposed to be loose?
• Yes. The pressure release valve’s loose fit is intentional; it enables a quick and easy
transition between SEAL and VENT and helps regulate pressure by releasing small
amounts of steam during cooking to ensure great results. Please make sure it is turned
as far as possible toward the SEAL position when pressure cooking and as far as
possible toward the VENT position when quick releasing.
The unit is hissing and not reaching pressure.
• Make sure the pressure release valve is turned to the SEAL position. If you’ve done this
and still hear a loud hissing noise, it may indicate the silicone ring is not fully in place.
Press START/STOP to stop cooking, VENT as necessary and open the lid. Press down
on the silicone ring, ensuring it is fully inserted and lies flat under the ring rack. Once
fully installed, you should be able to tug lightly on the ring to rotate it.
The unit is counting up rather than down.
• The cooking cycle is complete and the unit is in KEEP WARM mode.
How long does the unit take to depressurise?
• The time it takes to release pressure depends on the quantity of food in the unit and can
vary from recipe to recipe. Always ensure the float valve has dropped before trying to
remove the lid. If the unit is taking longer than normal to depressurise, unplug the unit
and wait until the float valve drops before opening the lid.

bottom of the cooking pot with no overlapping. If ingredients are overlapping, make sure
to shake halfway through the set cook time.
2 For smaller ingredients that could fall through the reversible rack, we recommend first
wrapping them in a parchment paper or foil pouch.
3 Use the KEEP WARM mode to keep food at a warm, food-safe temperature after cooking.
To prevent food from drying out, we recommend keeping the lid closed and using this
function just before serving.
4 To reheat food, use the AIR FRY function.
