Frequently Asked Questions - OPR10 JATA

How do I know when the pressure cooker has reached the right pressure?

The pressure indicator (a small pin) will rise up once pressure builds. Additionally, steam will begin to escape steadily from the pressure regulator valve.

Can I open the lid immediately after cooking?

No, you must release all pressure first. Use one of three methods: natural release (wait for steam to stop), quick release (lift the valve), or cold water release (run water over the lid). Only open when the pressure indicator is fully down.

What should I do if steam escapes from the safety window?

Reduce the heat immediately. This indicates excessive pressure. Ensure the pressure regulator valve is not blocked and that you haven't overfilled the cooker.

Is the pot dishwasher safe?

Only the pot body can be washed in the dishwasher. The lid, lid handle, and sealing ring must be cleaned by hand with mild detergent.

How do I clean the pressure regulator valve?

Pull the valve upward to remove it, then rinse under running water. Use a needle to clear any blockages in the valve shaft. Replace it firmly after cleaning.

What is the maximum fill level?

Do not fill beyond the ‘MAX’ marking inside the pot. For foods that expand (rice, legumes), fill no more than half capacity to avoid clogging the safety elements.

Can I use the pressure cooker in an oven or microwave?

No, the pressure cooker is not suitable for conventional ovens or microwaves. It is designed only for stovetop use.

How do I change the sealing ring?

Remove the old ring from the lid. Place the new silicone sealing ring ensuring it sits evenly in the groove. Refer to manual diagrams for correct orientation based on the lid opening button position.

Why does the pressure indicator not rise?

Check that the lid is properly locked, the sealing ring is in place, and the pressure regulator valve is set to the correct position (II). If still not working, ensure the valve shaft is not blocked.

What are the recommended cooking times?

Times vary by food. Examples: Fish soup 8-10 min, rice 4-8 min, beef 8-11 min, chickpeas 15-20 min. Start counting from when steam escapes steadily from the valve.

ATENCIÓN

ESPAÑOL

• Carefully read these instructions before making the pressure cooker work and save them for future enquiries.
• Keep the pressure cooker away from children while it is using.
• Do not touch the hot parts. Always use the handles, specially if you have to move it when it is under pressure. If necessary, use gloves.
• Never use it to fry food with oil under pressure.
• Never fill it beyond "max" neither under the inner indication "min" showed inside the pot. For expanding food during cooking like rice, legumes, etc. do not fill it beyond its 12 capacity.
• If doughy food is being cooked, slightly shake the cooker before removing the lid to avoid splashing.
• If you are cooking some food with its skin that can blow up (tongue for instance), make sure they do not block the security elements of the lid. Do not burst the inflated meat because it could get burned.
• Do not use the pressure cooker in a conventional oven nor in the microwave.
• Do not use the pressure cooker with other purpose than the one it has been designed for.
• Never manipulate the security elements, excepted the given indications for its maintenance and cleaning.
• Before each use, check the valves are not obstructed and the sealing ring is properly placed.
• Make sure it is conveniently locked before heating it.
• Do not try to open the pressure cooker forcing it. Open it only when you are completely sure there is no air in the inside.

INSTRUCTIONS OF USE

• Before the first use clean the pressure cooker with water and soap.
• Check the pressure indicator (2) by turning the lid and pressing it in the middle with a needle or similar to check it works like a spring. (Fig A).
• With the lid up down place the sealing ring in the lid ensuring it is properly positioned.
• If the opening button (3) is placed in the closed position 🔒 place the silicone ring as showed in the (Fig. B).
• If the opening button (3) is situated in the opened position ⏻ the silicon ring must be placed as showed in (Fig. C).

- Before placing the lid on the pressure cooker be sure the opening lid (3) is in open position. Make coincide the indication on the lid with the mark placed in the handle of the pressure cooker for locking (5) and turn the lid clockwise until the end (Fig. D) Next place the opening button in the close position.

COOKING

• Place the pressure cooker on the stove on a maximum flame and the pressure regulator valve (1) in the position II (high pressure). The position I (low pressure) can be used to soft the food or to finish the cooking.
• In a certain time, the cooker's pressure will start to grow and the pressure indicator (2) will start to rise. During this period, some steam may appear through the pressure indicator (Fig. E).
• The pressure will continue growing up until start going out by the pressure regulator valve (1). The cooking times can be started to be counted from that moment.
• Reduce the flame of the stove until the steam flows from the valve (1). If you do not reduce the flame, the pressure will keep growing and the steam could go out intermittently by the security window of the lid (7). Reduce the heat.

OPENING THE PRESSURE COOKER

• Remember the cooker must not be open until there is no pressure inside.
• To open the lid, it is necessary to remove the inner pressure in one of these 3 ways:
• Take the pressure cooker away from the heat until the steam stops flowing from the valve (1) and the pressure indicator (2) goes completely down
• Lift up slowly the valve (1) and turn it (Fig F) to the position ⏻. Wait until all the steam has gone out and the pressure indicator (2) goes completely down.

Attention: Doing this operation the steam flows in an important way by the upper side of the valve. Do not place your hand neither your face in front of this valve.

1. Place the cooker under the water tap and let the water fall down over the lid (Fig G) until the pressure indicator (2) goes completely down.

- Once the pressure indicator (2) has completely gone down, place the opening button (3) in open position and turn the lid (3) anticlockwise until the indication on the lid matches with the indication placed in the handle of the pressure cooker (Fig. H).

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

• You can clean the pressure cooker with water and a washing-up liquid. The pot can be washed in the dishwasher, although the lid, the lid handle and the sealing ring must not be washed in the dishwasher.
• Remove all the dirt or any food remnants that it could appear in the valve (1). To do that take it out by pulling it upwards and place it under the tap. If necessary you can clean it with a needle. Do the same with the valve shaft placed on the lid. Next place the valve again in its original position.
• Place it also the pressure indicator (2) under the tap.
• In any case clean the possible food remnants that it could remain in any of the valve and in the pressure indicator.
• The water calc may produce small marks in the inner part of the pressure cooker that can be removed easily with some vinegar. Finally rinse well the pressure cooker.
• Once the cooker is clean, to store it place the lid upside-down so that the silicone ring and the rest of components can dry completely.
