III. COOKING TIPS

General recommendations

• To steam vegetables or another ingredients, fill the bowl with of water and place the steaming container on the trivet. Measure ingredients following the recipe provided, and put them into the container. Follow the directions in the recipe book.
• To make porridge, use the pasteurized semi-skimmed milk, using whole milk dilute it by half with water. Grease the sides of the bowl with butter before cooking. Rinse grain (rice, millet, etc.) thoroughly until water runs clear. Follow proportions suggested in the recipe book, increase or reduce the amount of ingredients proportionately.
• During the preparation of bread and baking ensure that the ingredients take no more than half of the useful volume of the bowl. Time Delay function is not recommended for this program, as it can affect the quality of baking. Remove baked goods out of the appliance immediately after cooking is complete, to prevent them from getting extra-moist or soggy, or leave on Keep Warm for a short period of time only.
• Do not open the lid during dough proofing! Product quality depends on it.
• When cooking ingredients in the deep fryer, place the basket (sold separately) with the ingredients in hot oil. Only use refined vegetable oil in the deep fryer. Cook with the cover open. Remember, the oil will be very hot! To avoid burns, use oven gloves and do not bend over the device. Do not re-use oil.
• Let the appliance cool down thoroughly, before restarting the "ЖАРКА/ФРИТЮР" program.
• To prepare yogurts, you can use a special set of REDMOND RAM-G1 yogurt jars (sold separately).

VI. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

ATTENTION! Before you start cleaning the appliance, make sure that it is unplugged and has completely cooled down!

General Guidelines

• Before the first use of the multicooker or to eliminate smell of food after cooking, it is recommended to pour 0.5 L of water into the bowl and process half of the lemon cut into slices inside the bowl for 15 minutes using the "TAP/BAPKA" program.
• Do not leave cooking bowl with foods or liquids inside closed multicooker for over 24 hours. Store cooked foods in refrigerator and reheat when required, using Reheat function.
• Unplug the appliance if you don't use it for a long time. Working chamber, including heating disk, bowl, lid, O-ring, steam and lock valves should be clean and dry.

DO NOT immerse the appliance in water or wash under running water!

DO NOT use a sponge or tissue with hard or abrasive surface or abrasive pastes. DO NOT use any chemically aggressive substances or any other agents which are not recommended for cleaning items that come into contact with food.

REDMOND

• Be careful when cleaning the rubber parts of Electric Pressure Cooker. Their damage or deformation may result in an inappropriate operation of the device.
• Clean the housing when necessary. The bowl, lid and sealing ring, steam and lock valves need to be cleaned after each use. Condensate, accumulating during cooking, needs to be removed after each use. Clean the interior of the cooking chamber when necessary.

To Clean the Housing, Lid and sealing ring

Use soft damp cloth or sponge to clean the housing and lid. If necessary, use a mild soap solution. Wipe the surface dry to remove soap residue and water spots.

To remove the sealing ring, gently pull it towards you. Rinse under running water. If necessary use a mild soap solution. Dry at room temperature and install in the device.

To Clean Removable Steam and Lock Valves

1. Carefully pull the steam valve upwards and remove it.
2. Remove the steam valve cap on the inner side of the lid by pulling it towards you.
3. Carefully remove the lock valve rubber and remove the valve itself. Rinse all parts of the valves.
4. Reassemble the valve in reverse order of disassembly. Place the lock valve back into its original position, put the lock valve rubber on it, fit the steam valve cap to the thrusts until tight. Tightly fix the steam valve to the slot on the lid of the appliance.

ATTENTION! To avoid deformation of the lock valve rubber, do not twist and pull it after removal, cleaning and mounting.

To Clean the Bowl

The appliance bowl must be cleaned after each use. You can clean the bowl by hand, using a soft sponge and dishwashing detergent, or in the dishwasher (according to the manufacturer's recommendations).

If heavily dirty, fill the bowl with warm water and leave to soak for a while, then clean.

Wipe the outer surface of the bowl dry before positioning it back inside the multicooker.

When the bowl is used regularly, it is possible to completely or partially change the color of the internal non-stick coating. This in itself is not a sign of a defect.

To Remove Condensate

In this model the condensate accumulates in the special cavity on the housing around the bowl and drains into a special container, located on the back side of the appliance.

1. Open the lid, remove the bowl. If necessary slightly lift the front part of the electric pressure cooker, so that condensate completely drains into the container.
2. Remove the container, slightly pulling it.
3. Pour the condensate out. Wash the container and insert into the place.
4. Wipe off any condensate remaining around the bowl with a dry cloth.

Cleaning the Working Chamber

Compliance with the user manual guidelines minimizes the risk of food particles or liquids accumulating inside the cooking chamber.

However, if the inside of the chamber gets dirty, clean it to prevent improper operation or malfunction of the unit.

Walls of the cooking chamber, surface of the heating disk, and the casing of central thermal sensor (located in the middle of the heating disk) can be cleaned with a damp (not wet!) sponge or cloth. Remove any traces of soap or detergent if using any to prevent unwanted odors during cooking. If there is a foreign object in the cavity around central thermal sensor, carefully remove it using tweezers, trying to avoid pressing on the casing of the sensor. Clean heating disk with a damp medium-hard sponge or synthetic brush, if necessary.

During regular operation of the device, the heating disc may totally or partially change its color. This is not a sign of the device failure and does not influence on its operation.

Storage and Transportation

Before repeated operation or storage completely dry all parts of the appliance. Store the assembled appliance in a dry, ventilated place away from heating appliances and direct sunlight.

During transportation and storage, do not expose the device to mechanical stress, that may lead to damage of the device and/or violation of the package integrity.

Keep the device package away from water and other liquids.
