Overview of the Cooking Process

1. Heating Process

It is the first process, need electric and will produce pressure, the specific working time will depend on the which type of foods and how many foods you cook which do not display on the screen. If the foods is in low level, then the heating time will be less, if there is much foods inside, it need more time for heating certainly. please note, when cooking, you should put the „pressure limited valve“ to „seal“ position, then the cooker inside can save the pressure.

2. Pressure-keeping Process

When the pressure inside reach the working requirement, the cooker will turn to pressure-keeping process from electric heating process automatically, this process depend on the pressure inside to cook, the cooking time which displayed on the screen will count down automatically.

3. Pressure Release Process

when the pressure-keeping time countdown finished, it will turn to „warm“ function, and also will release the pressure inside automatically (the cooker will be locked automatically when there is pressure inside, so you can't open it, you just can open the cooker while all the pressure release completely), this release process is slow, in general, we suggest that you wait for it, or cut off the power, and then cover the lid with a wet towel to accelerate cooling.

However, if you real want to open the lid at once, you can put the „pressure limited valve“ to „release“ position to release pressure by yourself, but please note, you should be careful, because it maybe have steam sprayed out.

Information for Safe Use

• Do put the pressure limit valve to "Seal" before using it.
• Never touch the lid when it is working, for it is very hot.
• Selecting the function, and wait 8 blinks, it turns to work automatic.
• Do not put your hands over "Release" to avoid getting burnt when it is releasing.
• Please put the cooker beyond children's reach.
• Never connect with the power supply before locking the lid.
• Nothing must be on the pressure limit valve.

Use and Operation

1. Open the lid. Hold the handle, turning in clockwise direction to the limited side, and open it.
2. Put the food and water in the inner pot. The food and water should not be more than 4/5 of the total, the easy-expanding food not more than 3/5, while, the food and water should not be less than 1/5

1. Attach the inner pot inside the thermal insulator. First, clean the outer of the inner pot, the surface of the heater and the inside of the thermal insulator; then attach the inner pot inside the thermal insulator, and make sure they have good connection.

2. Close the lid. Install the seal ring to the lid. Turn the seal ring left and right to make it a good position. Hold the handle and put it in the limited area, turning in contra-clockwise direction to lock up the lid.

1. Install the pressure limit valve, and make sure that the float is down. (It must be down before working).

Programs and Programming

Preset Setting

Pressing PRESET SETTING each time, the pertinent preset time shows on the display and its indicator light blinks. At the beginning, each pressing adds by 0.5 hour. When the preset time goes more than 10 hours, each pressing adds by 1 hour. The maximum of the preset time should be 24 hours.

Finishing PRESET SETTING, for example, you set preset time is 4 hours. Then options selecting or pressure-keeping setting, wait 8 blinks, it will turn to count backwards and start to work automatic after 4 hours later. (If the preset time is less than 10 hours, it decreases by 0.5 hour. While, the preset time more than 10 hours, it decreases by 1 hour.)

Pressure Keeping Setting

• Pressing PRESSURE KEEPING SETTING each time, the pertinent pressure-keeping time increases by 2 mins. The maximum of the pressure-keeping time is 98 mins.
• Keep pressing PRESSURE KEEPING SETTING, the pressure-keeping time increases continuously.
• When setting the time, you can not select options.
• Finishing pressure time setting, wait 8 blinks, it turns to work automatic. the indicator light of the pressure time stops blinking. After the pressure inside reaches the design one, the pressure-keeping time decreases by 1 min.
• Press WARM/CANCEL, it will cancel function selecting.
• When it is working, press WARM/ CANCEL to stop working.
• Any function can automatically transfer to warm keeping after its working. And the maximum of the warm-keeping time is 24 hours.
• Unplug in. Hold the handle of the lid, turning in clockwise direction to the limited side, and open it. (Illustration 2&3) The food is serving.

To program the device step by step

1. Plug in, press Rice or other options key (or set the pressure-keeping time). 8 blinks later it tums to work automatic, and the time which displayed on the Screen stays on.
2. There is a sound when the pressure inside reaches the design one. Then, the pressure-keeping time starts to decrease by 1 min.
3. It transfers to warm keeping automatically after the pressure keeping finishes. At the same time, there are 5 sounds, and the indicator light of WARM blinks, The temperature and pressure inside are still very high at that time, meanwhile, The lid can't be opened because of itself's safety protect device
4. Wait for the pressure inside releasing and the float falling down by itself, then only open the lid.
5. Unplug and serve the food.

Important Hints

• When sticky food cooked, the pressure limit valve should not be raised before the indicator light of warm keeping stops blinking and the float falls down. Otherwise, the food will go out from the release valve needle.
• In general, we suggest you wait for the pressure releasing by itself, but this process will take some time. If you want to accelerate cooling, you can cut off the power, and cover the lid with a wet towel. If you want to release the pressure by yourself, you'd better to release the steam when the indicator light of warm keeping stays on, it indicates the pressure inside is going low. And you also should be careful because there is maybe steam goes out.

Cleaning and Care

• When the appliance is not in use and before cleaning, unplug the appliance from the outlet and allow it to cool down before cleaning.
• Polish the cooker body with a soft cloth. Do not wash the body in the water or spray water over it.
  Take off the dew collector to wash thoroughly, then polish with a wet cloth, and put it back.
• Wash the inner of the lid thoroughly, including the seal ring, the pressure limit valve, the blocking proof, the release valve needle, the float valve, and then polish dry with a soft cloth.
• Wash the inner pot with a sponge or a non-metal soft brush, and then polish dry the outside with a soft cloth.
