SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

GROUNDED PLUG: As a safety feature, this appliance is equipped with a grounded plug, which will only fit into a three-prong outlet. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature. Improper connection of the grounding conductor may result in the risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS: A short power supply cord used to reduce the risk resulting from it being grabbed by children, becoming entangled in, or tripping over a longer cord.

DO NOT alter the plug. DO NOT attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the grounded plug.

BUILT-IN SAFETY MECHANISMS

1. Automatic temperature control: Appliance will automatically stop heating, if the cooking pot is missing / empty or operating without enough liquids.
2. Automatic pressure control: If the internal pressure exceeds maximum pressure value, the appliance will automatically start releasing pressure through the pressure release valve.
3. Extreme pressure protection: If the automatic temperature and pressure control safety devices become invalid and the pressure inside the pot reaches maximum value, the appliance will automatically start releasing pressure from the lid.
4. Anti-blocking steam vent device: A specially designed cover avoids food particles from blocking the pressure release valve (under the lid) while in operation and ensure steam exhausts smoothly during the cooking process.
5. Overheat safety device: The appliance will automatically disconnect if excessive temperature is built up inside the cooking pot.
6. Special safety lid mechanism: The appliance is equipped with a locking lid mechanism that prevents the appliance from operating if lid is not properly locked. Locking mechanism also prevents the lid from opening when appliance is pressurized.
7. Extreme pressure control: The appliance will automatically disconnect if it reaches extreme pressure level.

BEFORE FIRST USE

CONTROL PANEL

COOKING PROGRESS DISPLAY

The Starfrit electric pressure cooker is designed with a unique feature that allows you to cook any meal with peace in mind. The digital cooking stage display helps you monitor the cooking stages every step of the way.

HEATING: HEATING will start immediately after a cooking function is selected. Heating stage will light up and display will show rolling bars indicating that the heating stage has started. During the heating stage the appliance will gradually reach maximum temperature. Heating time may vary depending on food and quantity as well as external factors such as ambient temperature.

PRESSURIZING: PRESSURIZING stage will light up and pressure will start to build inside the appliance. Display will continue showing rolling bars! Pressurizing time may vary depending on food and quantity as well as external factors such as ambient temperature (between 8-10 min). Pressure release valve will go up indicating the appliance is pressurized.

COOKING: The appliance will switch to Cooking once maximum pressure temperature is reached. Display will show total pressure-cooking time (0:00). Each cooking style function has a preset cooking time. Cooking time displayed represents pressure cooking time not total cooking time. Total cooking time may vary depending on food and quantity. Pressure release valve will remain up indicating the appliance is pressurized. Do not try to force the lid open while the appliance is in use.

DEPRESSURIZING: The appliance will beep 5 times when pressure cooking time is over and automatically switch to pressure release mode. The pressure release stage will light up and the appliance will naturally start releasing internal pressure. This may take 10-15 minutes depending on food and quantity. For a quick release, carefully turn the steam release vent to the "release" position. Do not try to force the lid open allow the appliance to cool down completely. Always use protective oven mitts.

WARM: Once the pressure inside the appliance is completely released, pressure release valve will drop down and appliance will automatically switch to WARM function. Warm stage will light up and timer will start counting up by incrementing of 1 minute for up to 24 hours. Once maximum time is reached, appliance will automatically turn OFF. Use extreme caution when opening the lid to avoid scalding.
