Frequently Asked Questions - Acticook P43015 TEFAL

How to close the Acticook correctly?

Make sure the position selector is aligned with the closing pictogram, then place the lid vertically on the pot. Turn the selector to the desired cooking position. If closing is difficult, check that the gasket is properly seated and apply slight pressure to the center of the lid.

What to do if the pressure indicator does not rise?

Check that the position selector is on a cooking position (1 or 2). If the problem persists, have the appliance checked by an authorized Tefal service center.

How to use the timer?

Turn on the timer with the + or - buttons. Set the cooking time. Place the pressure cooker on the heat source at full power. As soon as pressure is reached, the timer sounds and the countdown begins: then reduce the heat source to one third. At the end of cooking, the timer sounds again.

How much water to use for steaming?

Use the eco-measure: 1 measure = 250 ml. For steaming of 1 to 9 min, pour 2 measures (50 cl). For 10 to 15 min, pour 3 measures (75 cl). Do not exceed 15 min with 3 measures.

Can I put the pot in the dishwasher?

Yes, the pot and steaming basket are dishwasher safe. The lid is also, but after removing the timer, gasket and control module. The module and timer must never go in the dishwasher.

How to clean the operating valve?

Remove the control module from the lid. Set the selector to position 1 and press the valve to check its mobility. Clean it under a stream of water. Make sure the steam vent is not blocked.

What to do if steam leaks around the lid?

Check that the gasket is not pinched, that it is properly positioned and in good condition. Check the lid closure and cleanliness of the pot rim. If the gasket is damaged, replace it.

How often to change the gasket?

It is recommended to change the gasket every year, or immediately if it has a cut. Always use an original Tefal gasket corresponding to your model.

How to unlock the folding handles?

Press fully the unlocking buttons located under the handles to fold or raise them. Never force without pressing the buttons.

What to do if the timer displays a square?

This means the timer needs to be replaced. Get a new timer of reference X1060004 from an authorized Tefal service center.

Safety

ActiCook ^® is fitted with several safety devices:

Closing safety:

- The jaws must be in contact with the edge of the lid. Otherwise, there is a steam leak in the pressure indicator and ActiCook ^® cannot be put under pressure.

• If ActiCook ^ is under pressure, the position selector cannot be set to the opening icom as the mechanism is locked by the pressure indicator (D) (in raised position).
• In this case, do not try to force opening, but set the position selector to and wait for the pressure indicator (D) to fall before opening ActiCook®.
• Never force ActiCook® open.
• Above all do not touch the pressure indicator.
• Make sure that the interior pressure has fallen (pressure indicator (D) in lowered position).

Two safety measures against overpressure: \_\_\_\_

• First measure: the safety valve (Q) releases the pressure and steam escapes from beneath the control module: - fig 18
• Second measure: the seal allows steam to escape from between the lid and the pan - fig 19

If one of the overpressure safety systems is triggered:

• Turn off the heat source.
• Let ActiCook® completely cool down.
• Open.
• Check and clean the operating valve (P), the steam release outlet (A), the safety valve (Q) and the seal (G).
• If, after these checks and cleaning, your product leaks or no longer works, take it to an TEFAL Approved Service Centre.

1 - Steam is very hot when it leaves the operating valve.
2 - Do not try to force opening. Ensure that the pressure indicator (D) is in the lowered position.
3 - As with any cooking utensil, ensure close supervision if you are using the pressure cooker near children.
4 - Watch out for the jet of steam.
5 - To move the pressure cooker, use the two pan handles.
