grounding-type electrical outlet. Do NOT alter the plug for use in a 2-prong
outlet. If the plug will not t into an outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualied electrician.
Do NOT alter the plug for use in a 2-prong outlet. If the plug will not t into an

Before First Use
1. Remove all packing materials from the inside and outside of the
multicooker. Be sure to check that all parts and accessories are
included before tossing out any packaging.
2. Gently wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth or paper towel.
Never immerse the multicooker, its base, cord or plug in water or
any other liquid.
3. Wash all removable parts, except for the power cord and plug, with a
sponge and warm, soapy water. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or
scouring pads. The gasket, rice spoon, condensation cup, measuring cup
and cooking pot are top-rack dishwasher safe. Dry all parts thoroughly.
4. To install the condensation cup, align the top of the cup at the rear of the
cooker with guides and slide it in.

Quick Start:
How to Use the Multicooker
1. Add food (including any water)
to the inner pot, then set the
pot in the multicooker. Plug the
power cord into the port on the
unit, and the other end into a wall
outlet. Be sure the condensation
cup is installed on the side of the
unit.
2. Turn the lid upside-down and
place the gasket onto the gasket
holder, positioned between the
holder and the inner edge of
the lid. Push the gasket into the
holder while rotating the lid. It is
fully secured when all parts of
the gasket sit ush against the
inside of the gasket holder.
3. Place the lid on the multicooker, lining up the arrow on the top of the lid
with the arrow next to the unlock symbol. Use the lid handle to turn the lid
clockwise, lining up the arrow next to the lock symbol; this will lock the lid.
NOTE: If using the Sauté function, do not put the lid on the unit.

Quick Start: How to Use the Multicooker
5. Press the button for your chosen cook function. The default cooking time
will display on the control panel; if you wish to adjust it use the + and
– buttons or the Adjust button (see individual function descriptions for
more details). If you’re using the Sauté function, you can also adjust the
temperature; see Sauté description, p. 12, for more details.
If using a pressure function, the oating valve button will pop up once
the unit reaches pressure.
4. Turn the pressure regulator knob. Make sure that the pressure regulator
knob is pointing to the correct setting. If using Steam, Slow Cook, or
Yogurt, the knob should be set to Venting. All other functions (except
Sauté) use pressure, so they should be set to Sealing. (Sauté does not
use the lid at all).
RJ40-6-V3_UG_FINAL_OTP_070324.indd 10RJ40-6-V3_UG_FINAL_OTP_070324.indd 10 7/3/24 12:08 PM7/3/24 12:08 PM

Quick Start: How to Use the Multicooker
6. When the cooking cycle nishes, unit will beep. If a pressure-cooking
function was used, you can quickly release the pressure by switching
the pressure regulator valve from Sealing to Venting. WARNING: Steam
is extremely HOT! Keep hands and arms away from the steam vent
while pressure is releasing. Alternatively, you can use the natural release
method, by letting the unit gradually cool down until the oating pressure
valve button drops. Natural release is best for liquid or high-starch foods,
such as porridge, soup, and rice.
7. Be sure to wait to open the lid until the oating pressure valve button
drops again, indicating that pressure has been safely released. NOTE: If
the pressure has released but the oat valve is stuck due to food debris or
stickiness, you can push it down with a chopstick or the handle of a spoon.
Use the lid handle to turn the lid counterclockwise and lift up to remove.

measuring cup, spoon, and condensation cup with mild detergent and
water. Dry thoroughly before reassembling.
2. Remove the gasket from the lid and wash with warm, soapy water.
Inspect the gasket after each use for any tears or damage. A damaged
gasket will not seal properly; if the gasket is damaged, contact Chefman
Customer Support.
3. The pressure regulator knob, and valve on the underside of the lid, must
be free of food debris. To remove and clean them, grasp the knob and pull
up. Wash in warm, soapy water and dry thoroughly before re-installing.
4. The main unit should be wiped down with a damp cloth. Never immerse
the unit in water or other liquid.
