Induction: Always place the cooker in the center of the cooking zone. The base of the pot should be the same size
as or larger than the cooking zone. Otherwise, it is possible that the cooking zone will not be triggered by the pot
base.
Special information for induction stoves: To prevent overheating and damage to the cookware as a result of the
high induction power, never heat the cooker up empty or unattended. Please also adhere to the Instructions for Use
provided by the stove manufacturer. A humming sound may come from your cooker while it is in use. This sound has
technical reasons and does not indicate that there is a defect in your stove or cookware.
Tips for saving energy
- When cooking at the gentle or speed setting, regulate the energy source so that the cooking indicator does not
rise above the marking for the cooking speed selected.
- Use a burner that is the right size. (See notes above)
- Choose cookware that is the right size for the amount of food you are preparing.
- Take advantage of the heat stored in the base. Turn off the heat source even before the end of the cooking period,
so that you can use the cooling off period.

Preparing
Place the ingredients called for in your recipe in the pressure cooker. Make sure you observe the specified filling
capacities. (See Chapter 5)
