Pressure cookers are under pressure when in use. Not adhering to the Instrucons for Use can lead to burns and
scalding. Make sure that the cooker is properly closed, and never cover the Pressure limited valve before it is heated up.
Keep an eye on the pressure cooker while cooking. If the steam escape through push proof valve, or rubber gasket
escape through safety window, in this case, turn o the heat on your stove immediately and check the reason, solve
the problem, then go on using.
Move the pressure cooker very carefully when it is under pressure. Do not touch the hot outer surfaces of the pressure
cooker, as you could burn yourself by doing so. Only touch the handles when cooking, and use potholder gloves when
necessary.
Pressure cookers must be shaken before opening to avoid pockets of steam, which might be caught within the food
from spaering up and scalding you. Do not cook applesauce or stewed fruits in a pressure cooker
Never try to force the pressure cooker open. Do not open it before you are certain that the steam inside has been
expelled completely.
Do not let the safety window aim at user while cooking. Always keep your hands, head and body out of the danger zone
when releasing steam from the pressure cooker.
Do not alter the safety mechanisms at random. Do not repair or oil the valves. If the pressure cooker-or any of its
parts-is damaged or does not funcon as described in the Instrucon for Use, do not use the pressure cooker. Let a
professional repair it or get in touch with your retailer.
Push proof valve: Only when the cooker is properly close, the pressure inside cooker should start to raise, then the
Push-proof rod will rise to lock the lid.
If the cooker is not closed properly, the pressure inside the cooker can’t rise and the steam will always escapes from the
Push proof valve. In this case, you should turn o the heat, close the cooker properly.
Push proof valve can indicate the pressure state inside the cooker automacally. As long as the pressure inside the
cooker is lower than the pressure that can engages the safety mechanism you can open the cooker safely Push-proof
rod will fall back into its socket completely, then you just can open the cooker.
Safety valve: When the Pressure limited valve doesn’t work or can’t work well and the pressure inside the cooker is
too high, the Safety valve will work automacally, release redundant steam in the cooker, keep the pressure cooker at
a safe level.

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.

To begin cooking
Place the pressure cooker on the proper burner; the diameter of burners
should be always smaller than the diameter of pressure cookers. And make
sure the releasing vent toward the working mark points, not toward the
releasing mark points.
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 pressureNever force the cooker open. It may
only be opened as long as the indicator rod has fallen back into its socket completely. Always shake the cooker before you
open it. This will prevent pockets of steam, which might be caught within the food from spaering up when the pressure
cooker is opened. If you do not do so, you are in serious danger of suering burns and scalding by the escaping steam and
food.
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.
Always begin with the burner at high. When using a gas stove, make sure that the ame does not go beyond the edge of
the pot base.
HEATING
* To move and laid of pressure cooker, should be one hand take short lower handle, another hand take long lower handle,
don’t only hold one side, to avoid of destroy the components.
* The pressure cooker should be put on the at over.
* In order to immediately to increase temperature, want to strong re for heang to make the regulator of working,
must but careful can’t over strong re for use. When heang a periods of me, the safety valve to begin output of a
lile steam(this belong to normal phase). On safety valve under normal working condion, should not output of steam.
While the regulator have steam output as well as working (For this moment to start calculate of heang me), can be
adjustment the re to small only for output a few of steam, for this condion enable to save energy and normal condion
of processing. If under cooking, the regulator to stop output of steam, can be adjustment the re for a lile more. If the
re too strong, and then for adjustment to reduce.
WAYS TO RELEASE PRESSURE FROM THE COOKER:
A. Cool the cooker under running water:
Hold the cooker under the water tap and run gently owing cold water over the lid-but not over the lid control panel or
pressure limited valve-unl the Push-proof rod has fallen back into its socket completely. Do not place the cooker in water.
B. Release steam
Move the pressure limited valve unl the releasing vent toward the releasing mark points, the steam will stream out from
the releasing vent on pressure limited valve. It may take several minutes. When the Push-proof rod has fallen back into its
socket completely, no more steam is escaping from pressure limited valve. Then shake the cooker gently, open the cooker.
C. Set aside to cool o
By this way, it takes quite a while for depressurizing. It should not be used for foods with very short cooking mes, such
as sh or vegetables, for they can easily become overcooked while the cooker is cooling down. When the Push-proof rod
is no longer visible, shake the cooker gently when opening.
