Frequently Asked Questions - Fast & Delicious CY505 TEFAL

How to open the lid after pressure cooking?

Make sure the pressure is completely released. Press the steam release button on the handle (wait a few seconds to 10 minutes). Turn the handle counterclockwise, lift and pull the lid to the right. Keep your face and hands away from the steam.

What to do if the lid won't open?

This means there is still pressure inside. Wait for the pressure to be completely released (let it cool for at least 2 hours). If the safety valve is blocked by dirt, use a rod to gently push it down. Before next use, clean the valve.

How to clean the safety valve?

Remove the lid, then carefully remove the safety valve from the lid. Rinse it under water, dry it thoroughly. Check that the duct is not blocked by pressing the spring. Put the valve back in its original position.

Can I put the cooking bowl in the dishwasher?

No, the cooking bowl must be washed by hand with a soft sponge. Accessories (steamer basket, tripod, spatula, measuring cup, condensation collector) can go in the dishwasher.

What does E1 or E2 display mean?

E1 indicates a temperature sensor problem (open circuit or short circuit). E2 means the lid is not locked properly. For E1, contact a service center. For E2, check that the lid is properly closed and locked according to the program.

Can I cook without liquid?

No, never operate the appliance empty or without liquid in the cooking bowl. This could seriously damage the appliance. For pressure cooking, you need at least 10 cl of water.

How to set the delayed start?

First select a program (except Browning and Custom). Before starting cooking, press the Delayed start button. Use the + and - buttons to set the delay (in increments of 10 minutes, from 2 to 24 hours). The cooking time is included in this delay.

Can I fry food in oil?

No, frying is prohibited. Only browning (searing) is allowed, with the lid open and without excess oil. Do not exceed 30 minutes of browning to avoid overheating.

What is the lid position for each function?

Refer to the table in the manual: pressure cooking functions require the lid closed and locked. Browning is done with the lid open. Reheating and slow cooking require the lid closed but not locked. Always check the recommended position.

How to change the sealing ring?

Remove the old seal from the lid. Clean the groove. Install the new seal (ref. 22CM CYSB50YC8) making sure it is properly seated. Replace the seal every 2 years to ensure a tight seal.

GENERAL INFORMATION FOR COOKING UNDER PRESSURE

• 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.
• The LED Low, Medium, or High will light on to indicate that there is pressure in the appliance.

- When using the pressure cooker for the first few times, you may notice slight leaking from the pressure limit valve and the sealing gasket. This is normal and will occur when pressure builds up.

- Your favourite traditional recipes can be easily adapted to PRESSURE COOK setting.

- Low (Low Pressure): to cook delicate food such as fish, shellfish and some delicate vegetables.

- Medium (Moderate Pressure): to cook vegetables

- High (High Pressure): to cook meat and frozen food

- It is normal for a small amount of steam to escape during cooking (as the valve is a safety valve).

• Don't use the pressure cooking without a minimum amount of water of 10cl.
• For cooking with pressure, the starting of the cooking is indicated by a single beep sound. The operational pressure is achieved after a double beep sound.

SAFETY FEATURES

Your pressure cooker contains several safety features:

Safety When Opening:

• If your pressure cooker is under pressure, the manometric rod is in the upper locking position, which prevents the cover from opening. Never try to force open your pressure cooker.
• It is especially important not to apply pressure to the manometric rod.
• Ensure that the internal pressure has fallen prior to trying to open the cover.

Two Overpressure Safety Features:

• First device: the safety valve releases the pressure – see chapter on Cleaning and Maintenance, page 81.
• Second device : the joint let off steam on the back of the cover.

If one of the overpressure safety features is triggered:

• Turn off your appliance.
• Allow your appliance to completely cool down.
• Open it.
• Check and clean the safety valve, decompression ball and gasket. See chapter on Cleaning and Maintenance.
• If your appliance leaks or is no longer operational after having performed these checks and cleaning, take it to an approved Service Centre.

Regulating your appliance:

The pressure can be regulated by switching the heating element on or off.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• Once your food is cooked, unplug the appliance and let it cool for at least 2 hours before cleaning - fig. 25-26. 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.

• Rinse the sealing gasket. Dry it off thoroughly before placing it back.

• To clean the safety 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 placing the safety valve back in its original position.
• Press on the internal part of the safety valve spring to check that it is not clogged - fig. 37,38.
• Clean the cooking pot and the accessories. Only the accessories are dishwasher safe - fig. 29. Do not use a scourer or abrasive cleaners 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), do not use the appliance and take it to your approved service center centre for repair.
• Clean your appliance after each use.
• Change the sealing gasket every 2 years. Use only the gasket reference 22CM CYSB50YC8.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem Possible reasons Solutions
Unable to open lid.	Unable to open because of pressure in the inner pot.	a.Wait for the pressure in the pot to release completely.b. Press and hold the pressure release button.
	Pressure in the pot is fully released but the safety valve is stuck because it is too dirty, and therefore unable to move down.	a. Be sure the pressure is totally released by leaving to completely cool down for 2 hours minimum (not under water).b. Please use a skewer to poke the safety valve, to make it fall down.
