OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

USING THE COOKER WITH PRESSURE LID (7)

1. Place the appliance in a dry and level place.

2. Place the condensation container for excess water (16)

on the back of the appliance, see Fig. 1

3.Prepare the pressure lid 7) as shown in the Fig.2.

Pull the metal protrusion on the underside of the lid to remove the protective cover on which the seal is fitted. The gasket can be removed and cleaned. Make sure that the seal is not damaged or torn anywhere. In case of damage, replacement is necessary. Make sure the float valve is clean and can move freely.

Note: if the pressure cooker lid has already been fitted to the appliance, remove it for preparation by pressing the red button and turning the handle anti-clockwise and lifting up.

1. Remove the inner container (12). The total volume of food and water should not exceed 2/3 of the volume of the inner container. If you will be cooking food that will increase in volume during cooking (e.g. rice), do not fill the container more than 1/2 full. Caution: Some foods such as applesauce, cranberries, oatmeal, noodles, rhubarb or spaghetti can foam and crack, clogging the pressure valve (outlet). These foods should not be cooked in the pressure cooker. Caution: do not use the pressure cooker for frying with oil.

2. Make sure the inner surface of the appliance body (5) is dry and place the inner container (12) into the appliance body (5).

3. Fit the pressure cover (7) and turn clockwise. When you hear a click, the lid is properly seated, Proper sealing of the lid is indicated by the aligned arrows on the edge of the lid and the edge of the appliance.

4. Please note that the pressure valve (10) must be freely movable for the pot to function properly.

5. Set the pressure valve to the 'Sealed' position, this makes the pot ready for use.

6. Plug the power cord into the appliance plug and then into a power outlet. The display will show "00 00".

7. Turn the control knob to scroll through the preset programmes (1) (additional programmes by pressing the corresponding programme button) or to adjust the cooking time. Confirm the selected programme (indicator lights up) with the Start button. To adjust the preset programme time, press the knob and turn to select the desired time and confirm by pressing the Start button.

Adjust the pressure setting after selecting the program and cooking time, confirm the setting with the Start button. Press the Manual Settings button to select the quantity of food, switching between Less, Normal and More. The default setting is Normal.

Note: The cooking time should be adjusted according to the amount of food.

1. The pot starts to heat up to the desired temperature (the display shows "On", the preheat icon is lit) and the float valve rises. Once it reaches the desired temperature, the set time starts counting down. At this point, you are already cooking under pressure (the pressure icon is lit), the lid is locked and the pot cannot be opened. NEVER TRY TO OPEN THE POT BY FORCE!
2. When cooking is complete, an audible signal will sound and the cooker will automatically switch to "Keep warm" mode to keep the food warm. The display shows "bb" and the Keep Warm icon lights up.
3. You can cancel the pot setting at any time by pressing the Keep Warm/Cancel button (5).
4. Sound off: to change the sound mode, hold down the Keep Temperature/Cancel button for 3 seconds until the sound icon on the display changes. Safety warnings are always on.

When cooking is complete, the pressure can be released in two ways:

15-30 minutes. The float valve gradually drops, the lid unlocks and can be opened easily. If it cannot be opened, wait for a bit longer. NEVER OPEN THE COOKER BY FORCE!
2. To open the pressure cooker lid: grasp the handle and press the red button to release the lid, turn the lid counterclockwise until it releases and lift up with an upward pull. The lid can be placed on the lid rack (14).
