PRESSURE COOKING
• Once pressure has built up in the appliance, the pressure limit valve will rise. The safety lock
in the lid is then activated and the lid will not be able to be opened during cooking. Never
attempt to open the lid during pressure cooking.
• When using the pressure cooker for the first few times, you may notice slight leaking from
the pressure level indicator and the sealing gasket. This is normal and will occur when
pressure builds up.
• Your favorite traditional recipes can be easily adapted to PRESSURE COOK setting.
Select one of the following settings using the “Pressure cook” key:
− Low (Low Pressure): to cook delicate food such as fish, shellfish and some vegetables
− Medium (Moderate Pressure): to cook vegetables
− High (High Pressure): to cook meat and frozen food
• You can adjust your pressure level by pressing «Pressure cook» key. Then choose Low,
medium or high by pressing or key.
• Some leaking from the pressure valve opening may also occur during cooking.
• It is normal for a small amount of steam to escape during cooking (as the valve is a safety
valve).
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
• Once your food is cooked, unplug the appliance to clean it - fig. 25. It is recommended to
clean your appliance after each use.
• Clean the housing and the inside of the lid with a damp cloth - fig. 32-33. Do not immerse
the appliance in water or pour water into it without the inner bowl - fig. 27.
• Remove the condensation collector and clean it thoroughly under water. Place it back in
its original position - fig. 35.
• Rinse the sealing gasket. Dry it off thoroughly before placing it back.
• To clean the float valve, remove the lid - fig.36 then remove the valve gently from the lid
- fig.37 and rinse it under water. Dry it off thoroughly. Take care that the duct is properly
cleaned before to place the float valve back in its original position.
• Press on the internal part of the safety valve spring to check that it is not clogged - fig.38.
• Clean the cooking pot and the accessories. Only the accessories are dishwasher safe -
fig.29. Do not use a scourer to clean the pot as this can damage the non stick coating in
the pot.
• Remove the pressure limit valve from the pipe and clean both valve and pipe with water.
Once dry, take care that duct of the pipe is properly cleaned before to plug the valve back
on it - fig. 31.
• Do not immerse the appliance. Always use the cooking pot provided. Do not pour water or
food directly into the appliance - fig. 27.
• If you inadvertently immerse your appliance in water or spill water directly on the heating
element (when the pot is not in place), take it to your service center for repair.
• Clean your appliance after each use.
• Change the sealing gasket every 2 years.
