EN

PREPARING YOUR ELECTRIC PRESSURE COOKER FOR USE

• Put the condensation collector into place. Check that the sealing gasket is in the correct position under the lid.
• Place your appliance on a flat surface.
• Unroll the power cord; connect it to the appliance then to the wall outlet. It is now ready for operation.
• Ensure that the pressure limit valve is on and in the right position. Please note that the valve does not click into place and that it will remain somewhat loose. Check that the pressure limit valve is down before you start pressure cooking (please see picture on the DESCRIPTION OF PARTS section).

STANDBY MODE

• Once the appliance is connected to power supply, the system starts to self check, the buzzer makes a «BEEP» sound, the digital screen and all indicators light on. After 1 second, the screen displays 12 -12
• The product switches to Standby mode when not cooking after 1 minute without action.

TIPS TO ENSURE PERFECT COOKING RESULTS

The size of the food pieces needs to be uniform so that everything cooks at the same pace.
- Many foods (meat and poultry for example) benefit from browning first to develop flavor.
Salt the ingredients lightly before cooking to bring out the flavors, then season to taste just before serving.
- Rice, beans and a few other ingredients foam up in an electrical pressure cooker, and can clog valves. To prevent this, drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil or canola oil over the cooking liquid just before you close the appliance. Do not stir.
- Depending on the type of food, once cooking is completed, pressure is released either naturally, through quick-release (please refer to the corresponding chart).
- Add tender fresh herbs (mint, basil...) at the end of cooking rather than at the beginning to prevent their taste from fading.
Even after pressure is released, there is still steam under the lid and it is hot. We recommend to wait a bit before opening the lid. When you open the appliance, always tilt the lid away from your face and your arms to avoid burns.
- Ingredients are extremely hot when they come out of an electrical pressure cooker so let the food stand for about five minutes to cool down before serving.

SETTINGS DESCRIPTION

Clean the housing with a damp and soft cloth. Do not use abrasive sponge as it may scratch the glossy surface.
To clean the lid : unscrew the central nut (under the lid) in anti-clockwise direction. Remove the nut and keep it in a safe place (picture 1 on previous page). Then remove the lid and clean it under water. Dry it off thoroughly before putting it back into place. Finally screw back the nut, taking care that it is in the correct position (the black sealing ring must be pressed against the lid surface).
- Rinse the sealing gasket (picture 2). Dry it off thoroughly before putting it back into place. Make sure that the gasket is correctly positioned on the metal ring.
- To clean the float valve (picture 3): remove the seal at the bottom of the pipe, and remove the pipe from the top of the lid. Clean it under running water. Take care that the duct is properly cleaned. Dry thoroughly the seal and the pipe before putting the valve back in its original position.
- To clean the pressure limit valve (picture 4): remove the valve weight gently from the top of the lid and rinse it under running water, paying special attention to the inside. Dry it off thoroughly. Take care also that the duct of the valve on the lid is properly cleaned before putting the valve weight back in its original position.
- To clean the strainer of the valve (picture 5) (under the lid): pull the strainer slightly to unclip it. Then clean it under running water. Dry it off thoroughly. Then put it back in its original positon (you should hear a "click" sound and the valve strainer must be close up against the inside of the lid).
- Ensure that the safety valve (picture 6) is working properly, by pushing it slightly with the finger, checking that there is no dirt or remaining food. But never attempt to unscrew it.
- Clean the removable cooking bowl and the accessories. Only the accessories are dishwasher safe. Do not use a scourer to clean the bowl as this can damage the non stick coating on the bowl.
- Remove the condensation collector and clean it thoroughly under running water. Put it back in its original position.

IMPORTANT:

• Do not immerse the appliance in water. Always use the provided cooking bowl. Do not pour water or food directly into the appliance without the cooking bowl.
• If you inadvertently immerse your appliance in water or spill water directly on the heating element (when the bowl 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.

WHAT TO DO IF YOUR PRESSURE COOKER IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY
