HOW PRESSURE COOKER WORKS
TECHNICAL PARAMETERS
In the process of heang, the cooker is sealed by a silicon sealing ring, pressure in the cooker is increasing gradually, and
boiling point of water is increasing accordingly. When pressure in the cooker exceeds the specied limit, the pressure
regulator is pushing up, allowing steam to escape from the vent pipe keeping temperature and pressure inside the cooker
at a certain level. If the escaping hole is blocked by food, one of the two safety valves will exhaust steam automacally for
safety assurance. To ensure safe operaon once lid is properly closed it will lock in this posion when pressure reaches a
certain point.
Working pressure: 80 Kpa ±8kpa
Safety pressure: 110 ~160 Kpa
Pressure inside the cooker under condion that the lid has not closed to full posion: < 4 Kpa
Pressure in the cover when the oang valve locked: >4 Kpa
Compable heang sources:
*On gas burner (or stove), the ame should not go beyond the base of the cooker pot, it can be added
burner ring to control re.
*On inducon cooker, use a hotplate of a diameter equal to the diameter of the base of the pressure
cooker. Take care that the boom of the cooker is perfectly clean.
CAUTION: Prevent erce re burning the handle when using.

FEATURES OF PRESSURE COOKING:
1. Save me, preserves food up to 30%~70% faster than ordinary cooking methods.
2. Using less energy and saving more money. Keep kitchens cool and lower fuel bills. During the modern busy day, you can
prepare a complete homemade gourmet meal in minutes.
3. Pressure cooking helps to retain your food essenal nutrients. Cooking in an almost airless cooking environment with
just a lile liquid, Flavor is enhanced and food valuable vitamins and minerals are retained.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Installaon of lid handle: Let the lid handle cling to the lid, make the head of lid handle aim at oang valve to insert
the screw, and run 2pcs M4 screws through the holes in the lid, then ghten the locknut.
2. Installaon of body handle. Let the body handle with jacket cling to the handle seat, and run M6 screw through the
hole in the body handle, then ghten the locknut.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Only under correct operaonal condions, can take full advantages of your pressure cooker and long life be showed.
Please read operang instrucons carefully and familiarize yourself with your new pressure cooker before using for the
rst me.
(A) Descripon & Operaon of operang and safety devices:
a) Pressure Regulator: In down posion when cooking under pressure, up posion when steaming.
b) Safety Valve: Allows excess pressure to escape in case that the vent pipe is blocked, so that not too much pressure is
building up inside of cooker. There’re 2 sets safety valves on the lid.
c) Floang Valve: It will rise against pressure built up and keep the lid in the locking posion unl pressure is released.
When the pressure is over 4 KPa in the cooker, the oang valve going up so that prevent handles to be rotated and the lid
cannot be opened. This device ensures the safety of opening and closing which avoids the dangerous possibility of wrong
handlings.
d) Sealing Ring: Silicon ring without poison or odor, creates an air ght seal that is needed for the Pressure Cooker to
operate. Also makes the lid easy to open and close.
e) Block-proof cover: which under the vent pipe prevents the vent pipe from being blocked and improves the cooker’s
safety.
With such above components, Pressure cookers eliminate all dangerous possibilies.
(B) Instrucon for use and method of operaon:
Before Use: Before cooking, please put some cooking oil on the edge of cooker body and sealing ring, for easy inial
opening and closing the lid. Then pour the water into 1/2 of the cooker, keep ten minutes to close the lid and heat unl
pressure regulator exhausng to get rid of new pot smell. When the pressure released and body cooling down, clean the
pot to backup.
Use Capacity
Do not ll up the pressure cooker over 2/3 of its full capacity. When cooking foods that expand during cooking such as rice
or dried vegetables, do not ll the unit over 1/2 full. Over lling may cause a risk of clogging the vent pipe and developing
excess pressure.
OPERATION

Check Safety Devices
Make sure safety valve, vent pipe, and oang valve are normal and clean before using every me, open the block-
proof cover on the lid and check carefully in the light to ensure that there are no blockages of the vent pipe. If found any
blockages, clear it immediately. The silicon sealing ring is securely posioned and not aged.
Close and Open the Lid
Aim at the body tooth and rotate the lid handle clockwise unl the arrowhead on the
lid fully aligns with the arrowhead on the lid handle. For the new pressure cooker,
press the lid with le hand, rotate the handles strongly a few mes with right hand to
ensure use properly. Rotate the lid handle counter-clockwise unl the arrowhead on
the lid aligns with the arrowhead on the lid handle, and then open the lid.
Place the Pressure Regulator
When regular steam escapes from the vent pipe aer heang, make sure the vent pipe unimpeded, then put the pressure
regulator onto the vent pipe.
Heang
Aer the lid has been closed properly, cooking can be started with heat. It is normal for some
steam to escape from the oang valve at beginning. Later in the cooking process the oang
valve will rise up and remain in the up posion, seal automacally during the pressure generaon.
Reduce the heat immediately once the pressure regulator is exhausng, and keep the steam
exhaust steadily unl the cooking completed. “Refer to the table of Recommended Cooking
Times.”
End of Heang
Remove the pressure cooker from the source of heat, reduce pressure before opening the lid. Set the cooker aside to a
cool area and wait the cooker body cool down or for quicker reducon of pressure, place cooker under cold running water
or li the pressure regulator to release steam. Pressure is completely reduced when the oang valve has dropped. If the
oang valve remains in its raised posion, there may sll be pressure inside the pressure cooker. Connue to cool unl
the oang valve drops. (If the oang valve is sll not fell down, may be scked by food, it can be used chopscks to press
it down.) Aer pressure has been completely reduced, remove the pressure regulator to conrm all steam drained, rotate
the lid handle count-clockwise to open the lid. Always remove the pressure regulator before opening the lid.
WARNING: Do not hold the pressure regulator to release pressure. (Risk of injuries! Hot steam/liquid will be ejected.) Keep
hands and face away from steam vent pipe, use cooker handles when removing the cooker or touching any hot items, and
never force the lid open. The lid will only open once the pressure is released. Remove the lid by liing it away from you to
avoid being burned by the steam.
