• This appliance is designed for domestic household use only. In case of professional use,
inappropriate use or failure to comply with the instructions, the manufacturer accepts
no responsibility and the guarantee will not apply.
• Take time to read all of the instructions and always refer back to the "User Guide."
• Just like for any other cooking appliance, always pay close attention to it, especially
when using your pressure cooker near children.
• Never place your pressure cooker in a hot oven.
• Always be very careful when moving your pressure cooker. Never touch the hot surfaces
(in particular metal parts). Use the handles and knobs. Use gloves where necessary.
• Check that the handles of the cooker are fitted correctly. Tighten them if necessary.
• Never use the pressure cooker for any purpose other than the one it was designed for.
• Your pressure cooker cooks using pressure. Scalding injuries may result from incorrect
use. Always make sure that your pressure cooker is properly locked before starting it.
Refer to the section headed "Locking".
• Always make sure that the selector is in the steam release position before unlocking
your pressure cooker and the pressure indicator is lowered.
• Never force your pressure cooker open. Always make sure that the pressure inside it
has dropped. Refer to the section headed "Safety".
• Never use your pressure cooker without any liquid in it as this will seriously damage it.
Always make sure there is enough liquid in it during cooking.
• Use heat source(s) that are in line with the instructions for use.
• Never make milk-based recipes (such as rice pudding, semolina pudding, ...) in the
pressure cooker.
• Do not use sea salt in your pressure cooker, add table salt at the end of the cooking
time.
• Do not fill the pressure cooker more than two thirds full (maximum filling level).
• For food that expands during cooking, like rice or dried vegetables or stewed fruit, never
you’re your pressure cooker more than half full. For some soups made with pumpkin
or courgette, let the pressure cooker cool for a few minutes then cool it in cold water.
• After cooking meat with a superficial outer skin (e.g. tongue...) that may expand with
the pressure, never stab the meat while the skin looks swollen for you may be scalded.
We recommend that you pierce the meat before cooking.
• When cooking soft food (split peas, rhubarb...), your pressure cooker should be lightly
shaken before unlocking so that the food does not spurt out.
• Always make sure that the valves are not blocked before use. Refer to the section
headed "Before cooking".
• Never user your pressure cooker to deep fry oil under pressure.
• Never take any action on the safety systems other than that which is described in the
instructions for cleaning and maintenance.
• Only use TEFAL genuine spares designed for your model of appliance. This especially
means using a TEFAL cooker pan and lid.
• Alcohol vapor is flammable. Bring alcohol to the boil for 2 minutes before putting the
lid on. Watch over your appliance when making alcohol based recipes.
• Never use your pressure cooker to store acidic or salty foods prior to and after cooking
as this can damage your pressure cooker pan.
• Never put your pressure cooker on a heat source with the handles folded.*
• You can use the pan to cook food in without the lid. Do not use the lid if you do not
intend the food to be cooked under pressure.
Keep these instructions.
