Maximum 1/3 (MAX 1) - fig. 15 for foodstuffs that expand and/or foam during cooking, such as rice, legumes, dehydrated vegetables, compotes, pumpkin, courgette, carrots, potatoes, fish fillets etc. When pressure cooking, the food in the steam basket* should not be in contact with the water. The food in the steam basket* must not exceed MAX 2 level on the pan. *depending on model TE_AUTHENTIQUE_1520008720.qxp_Mise en page 1 11/06/2019 09:30 PageC41 BEFORE AND DURING COOKING Keep the pressure cooker out of reach of children when in use. Steam is very hot when it leaves the operating valve. Watch out for the jet of steam. This device cooks using pressure. Improper use may result in scalding injuries. Make sure the pressure cooker is properly closed before use. (See "Closing" section). During cooking, check that the valve is still murmuring. If there is not enough steam being released, decompress the product and check that there is enough liquid and that the steam release outlet is not blocked. After these checks, if there is still not enough steam, increase the heat source slightly. Do not cook foodstuffs that might block the safety components: - cranberries - pearl barley, spelt, millet - oat flakes - split peas - noodles, macaroni, spaghetti - rhubarb - redcurrants Never use your pressure cooker to cook recipes containing animal milk. Never use coarse salt in your pressure cooker, only use fine salt at the end of cooking. This will prevent "pitting" which may alter the bottom of your pressure cooker. Never use your pressure cooker to fry under pressure using oil. Do not leave your pressure cooker unattended while heating oil or fats. Continuing to heat oil which has started to smoke degrades it and could raise its temperature enough to catch fire. Do not use your pressure cooker for any other purpose than the one it is meant for. Do not put your pressure cooker in a hot oven. Never put a piece of aluminium foil not secured onto a mould in your pressure cooker. Never put plastic film in your pressure cooker. Alcohol vapour is flammable. Bring to a boil about 2 minutes before covering with the lid. Check your appliance on a regular basis if you are making alcohol-based recipes. Only use the compatible heat source(s) listed in the user guide. TE_AUTHENTIQUE_1520008720.qxp_Mise en page 1 11/06/2019 09:27 Page12 AFTER COOKING... After cooking meats with a skin surface (e.g. beef tongue, etc.), where there's a risk of swelling under pressure, don't score the meat when swollen to avoid being scalded. Score meat before cooking. For foodstuffs that expand and/or foam during cooking, such as rice, legumes, dehydrated vegetables, compotes, pumpkin, courgette, carrots, potatoes, fish fillets, etc. Let your pressure cooker cool down for a few minutes, then cool in cold water - figs. 8 and 9. Methodically and lightly shake the pressure cooker each time before opening to prevent bubbles of steam from overflowing and burning you. This operation is particularly important when steam is released quickly or after cooling down in cold water. Always be very careful when moving your pressure cooker under pressure. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use the handles. Use oven mitts if necessary. For soups, we recommend fast pressure release in cold water (see "End of cooking" section). Never use force to open your pressure cooker. Make sure the internal pressure has been released. (See "Safety" section). TE_AUTHENTIQUE_1520008720.qxp_Mise en page 1 11/06/2019 09:27 Page2EN

MAINTENANCE If you notice that a part of your pressure cooker is broken or cracked, do not attempt to open it under any circumstances; wait for it to cool down completely before moving it. Do not use it again and take it to an Approved TEFAL Service Centre for repair. Do not tamper with the safety systems other than when following the cleaning and maintenance instructions. Only use the correct TEFAL original parts for your model. In particular, use a TEFAL pan and lid. Never leave food in your pressure cooker. Clean and rinse your pressure cooker immediately after each use. Never put the operating valve (A) or the lid in the dishwasher. Never use bleach or products containing chlorine, as these will impair the quality of the stainless steel. Do not leave the lid soaking in water. Make sure that you get your pressure cooker checked in a TEFAL Approved Service Centre after 10 years of use. To store your pressure cooker: Place the lid upside down on the pan in order to prevent the premature wear of the lid seal.

Problems Recommendations If you are unable to open the lid: Depressurize and remove the valve. Make sure that there is no pressure left. If necessary, heat it for a few moments without the valve. If your pressure cooker has been heated without liquid inside: Have your pressure cooker checked by an approved TEFAL Service Centre. If nothing is escaping through the valve and your pressure cooker makes no noise during cooking, your pressure cooker is not under pressure. This is normal during the first few minutes of heating. - If the phenomenon persists, check that: The heat source is sufficiently strong. The quantity of liquid in the pan is sufficient. The operating valve is in position. The pressure cooker is closed properly. The operation valve is not dirty. There is no deterioration at the seal or edge of the pan. If one of the overpressure safety systems is triggered: Turn off the heat source. Let the pressure cooker cool down. Check the steam evacuation rod, operating valve, safety valve and seal. If steam leaks from around the lid, check That the lid is closed, if necessary, tighten it. The seal is in good condition. The position of the lid seal. The cleanliness of the lid, the seal, the safety valve and the operating valve. The condition of the edge of the pan. If the food is not cooked or is burnt, check: The cooking time. The power of the heat source. The operating valve is correctly positioned. The quantity of liquid. If food has burnt in your pressure cooker: Soak your pan for a while before washing. Never use bleach or products containing chlorine. TE_AUTHENTIQUE_1520008720.qxp_Mise en page 1 11/06/2019 09:27 Page12EN
