silicone cap properly installed in the pressure cooking lid.
Condensation Collector
The condensation collector sits at the back of the cooker base and accumulates
overow moisture from the condensation rim. It should be installed before
cooking, then emptied and rinsed out after each use.
Remove the Condensation Collector
Pull the condensation collector away from the cooker base; do not pull down.
Note the tabs on the cooker base and the grooves on the condensation collector.
Install the Condensation Collector
Align the grooves on the condensation collector over the tabs on the back of the
cooker base and slide the condensation collector into place.
DANGER
While the oat valve is up, contents of cooker are under extreme pressure. Do not
attempt to remove the lid. All pressure must be released, and oat valve must be
down. Refer to Depressurizing the Cooker (Venting Methods) for information on
releasing pressure. Failure to follow these instructions may result in property
damage and/or personal injury.

Cooking with the Viva
Introduction to Pressure Cooking
Pressure cooking uses steam pressure to raise the boiling point of water
above 100ºC/212ºF. This energy-efcient cooking method is the fastest way to
thoroughly cook a variety of your favorite meals.
Pressure cookers go through 3 stages when pressure cooking:
1. Pre-Heating and Pressurization
The cooker waits 10 seconds to ensure you have nished inputting your selections,
then displays On to indicate it has begun pre-heating. While the cooker pre-heats,
it vaporizes liquid in the inner pot to create steam. Once enough steam has built
up inside the inner pot, the oat valve pops up and locks the lid of the cooker in
place for safe pressure cooking.
When the oat valve pops up, the silicone cap attached to the bottom of the oat
valve (on the underside of the lid) seals the steam inside the cooking chamber (the
inner pot) and allows the pressure to rise even higher. A higher pressure means a
higher cooking temperature.
While it is normal to see some steam escaping through the oat valve during
Pre-Heating, if you see steam escaping from around the sides of the lid, press
Cancel and refer to Troubleshooting.
Note: The time it takes your cooker to pressurize is determined by a variety of factors,
including food and liquid volume.
2. Cooking
After the oat valve pops up, the cooker needs a few minutes to nish building
pressure. When the required pressure level is reached, cooking begins. The
display switches from On to the cooking countdown timer, displayed in HH:MM
(hours : minutes) format.
Smart Program settings (e.g., cooking time, temperature and/or pressure level,
and whether Keep Warm will come on automatically or not) can be adjusted at any
time during cooking. Refer to Smart Program Settings for details.
30
Cooking with the Viva
3. Depressurization
After pressure cooking completes, follow your recipe instructions for
depressurizing the cooker.
If automatic Keep Warm is on after cooking completes, the timer counts up from
00:00 to indicate the elapsed time up to 10 hours. If not, the cooker returns to
Standby and displays End.
Note: The cooker cools and depressurizes faster if automatic Keep Warm is off.
See Depressurizing the Cooker (Venting Methods) for information on releasing
pressure after cooking.
DANGER
While the oat valve is up, contents of cooker are under extreme pressure. Do not
attempt to remove the lid while the oat valve is still up. All pressure must be
released, and oat valve must be down before attempting to remove the lid. Never
attempt to force the lid open. Failure to follow the instructions may result in
property damage and/or personal injury.
31
Depressurizing the Cooker (Venting Methods)
Always follow recipe instructions for depressurizing the cooker.
Natural Release (NR)
Leave the quick release button in the popped-up Seal position. As the
temperature within the cooker drops, the cooker depressurizes naturally over time.
Depressurization time varies based upon the volume and type of food and liquid.
When the cooker has completely depressurized, the oat valve drops into the lid.
Quick Release (QR)
Press the quick release button down until it clicks and locks into the Vent position.
When depressed, a stream of steam releases through the top of the steam release
valve.
Note: Steam may range in opacity but is always loud!
When the cooker has completely depressurized, the oat valve drops into the lid.
Seal Position Vent Position
NOTICE
Use NR to depressurize the cooker after cooking high-starch foods (e.g., soups,
stews, chilis, pasta, oatmeal and congee) or after cooking foods that expand when
cooked (e.g., beans and grains).
CAUTION
Steam ejected from the steam release valve is hot. Do not place hands, face, or any
exposed skin over the steam release valve when releasing pressure.
32
Depressurizing the Cooker (Venting Methods)
If continuous spatter occurs while venting, set the cooker back to Seal by icking
the quick release button. The button pops back up to indicate that it is sealed and
stops the depressurization process. Wait a few minutes before trying to QR again.
If spatter continues, use NR to safely release remaining pressure.
10-Minute NR
Leave the quick release button in the popped-up Seal position for 10 minutes
after cooking has completed, then press the quick release button down until
it clicks and locks into the Vent position. When depressed, a stream of steam
releases through the top of the steam release valve.
If continuous spatter occurs while venting, set the cooker back to Seal by icking
the quick release button. Wait an additional 5 minutes before trying to QR again. If
spatter continues, use NR to safely release remaining pressure.
NOTICE
Do not use QR when cooking high-starch foods (e.g., stews, chilis, pasta and
congee) or when cooking foods that expand when cooked (e.g., beans and grains).
DANGER
While the oat valve is up, contents of cooker are under extreme pressure. Do not
attempt to remove the lid while the oat valve is still up. All pressure must be
released, and oat valve must be down before attempting to remove the lid. Never
attempt to force the lid open. Failure to follow the instructions may result in
property damage and/or personal injury.

13. The cooker beeps once the water temperature is reached.
Remove the lid and immerse the sealed pouches in the warm water. The
pouches' contents should be submerged, but the seal should remain above
the water line.
14. Place and close the lid as described in Pressure Control Features—Pressure
Locking Lid.
15. For cooking times over 4 hours, check the water level periodically to ensure
pouch contents remain submerged. If required, add heated water to the inner
pot.

the pouches from water.
17. Remove contents from pouches and use a thermometer to check for
doneness. Follow a recipe or refer to the Sous Vide Cooking Guidelines.
Reverse Searing
Searing your meat after cooking, rather than before, is a great way to boost avors.
After sous vide cooking, remove the meat from the cooking pouch and gently pat
it dry. Then, sear it lightly in the inner pot with the Sauté Smart Program, or use a
pan, browning torch, or grill.
Ingredients and Seasonings
• Use high quality, fresh ingredients when cooking sous vide to ensure the
best possible avor.
• When seasoning with salt, it is better to use less than you might add
normally, especially with meats, poultry, and sh. Instead, salt to taste
after cooking.
• Use garlic powder rather than raw garlic. Raw garlic can become bitter
and overpowering when cooked sous vide. Pure and high-quality garlic
powder provides the best results.
Note: Do not use garlic salt in place of garlic powder!
Storing Cooked Food
If your dish is not going to be consumed immediately, plunge pouches into ice
water to reduce temperature quickly, then keep refrigerated.
CAUTION
Do not overll the inner pot. Ensure that total contents (water and food pouches)
leave at least 2 inches of space between the brim of the inner pot and the water line.
