Frequently Asked Questions - CP016-PC Cosori

Can I use the glass lid for pressure cooking?

No, the glass lid is only for non-pressurized functions like Slow Cook or Sauté/Brown. For pressure cooking, always use the main lid with the sealing ring and set the pressure release valve to "Sealed".

What is the minimum amount of liquid required for pressure cooking?

The minimum liquid amount is 4 cups (1000 mL), unless your recipe specifies otherwise. Never cook without liquid as it may overheat and damage safety mechanisms.

How do I switch between Fahrenheit and Celsius?

Press the + and - buttons simultaneously. The display will show "C" for Celsius or "F" for Fahrenheit. It will revert to the previous screen after 3 seconds.

What should I do if steam leaks from the lid during cooking?

Check if the silicone sealing ring is properly installed and clean. Also ensure the lid is correctly locked and the pressure release valve is set to "Sealed". If leaking persists, the sealing ring may need replacement.

Can I use the Delay Start function with all cooking modes?

No, Delay Start does not work with Yogurt, Pasta/Boil, Hot Pot, Sauté/Brown, Reheat, and Manual modes. It is available for most pressure cooking presets and Slow Cook.

How do I perform a natural release vs quick release?

For natural release, unplug and let the cooker cool for 15-20 minutes until the float valve drops. For quick release, use oven mitts to switch the pressure release valve from "Sealed" to "Release" and wait for steam to escape. Always keep face away.

What does the error code E1 mean?

Error E1 indicates a broken circuit in the sensor. Unplug the unit and contact Cosori customer support for assistance. Do not attempt to repair yourself.

Can I cook frozen meat directly in the pressure cooker?

No, always thaw frozen meats or fish before cooking. Placing frozen food can prevent proper pressurization and lead to uneven cooking.

How do I clean the anti-clog filter?

Remove the anti-clog filter by pushing it toward the metal ring and pulling up. Rinse it with water, dry, and reattach. Check regularly for blockages.

What is the default Keep Warm time after cooking?

The pressure cooker automatically switches to Keep Warm mode for 6 hours after pressurized cooking finishes. This can be cancelled by pressing Stop/Cancel.

Use & Care Guidelines

• DO NOT operate the pressure cooker if the cord or plug is damaged, if the unit malfunctions, or if the unit has been damaged in any manner. If the unit is malfunctioning, please contact customer support.

• Always check the pressure release valve and float valve for any clogging before use.
• Make sure all parts of the pressure release valve and float valve are clean and properly assembled before each use.
• Using other accessories that are not compatible with the pressure cooker is not recommended. Doing so may damage the unit or cause injury and will void your warranty.
- The pressure cooker is intended for indoor use only.
• To disconnect the unit

from a power source, press 'Stop/Cancel', then remove plug from the outlet.

• It is extremely important to fill the pressure cooker with liquid prior to operation. Never cook without liquid; doing so can cause the unit to overheat and damage the safety mechanisms.
• DO NOT place frozen meats or fish into the pressure cooker; always make sure meat and fish are thawed before cooking.
• If you cook meat with a casing, such as sausage, swelling can occur when cooked under pressure. Piercing the skin after cooking can lead to bursts of hot liquid.

• The silicone sealing ring creates a pressure seal between the lid and the pot. Keep the sealing ring completely clean and free from any cracks or deterioration.
  • DO NOT break the silicone sealing ring. Do not replace it with other rubber sealing rings or use a tension belt to make the pressure cooker seal.

• Check and wash anti-clog filter and pressure release valve regularly to avoid any blockage.
  • DO NOT attempt to open the lid while the float valve is still up.
  • DO NOT put anything on or use other objects to replace the pressure release valve.

• Never use a towel to clog the gap between the lid and edge of the housing.
• The bottom of the inner pot and heating plate should be kept clean. Do not put the inner pot on other heat sources. Do not replace the inner pot with other containers.
  • DO NOT attempt to move the pressure cooker while it is cooking; wait until it cools down to move it. Move the unit using the built-in handles; do not try to hold the pressure cooker from the lid handle.
  • DO NOT disassemble the unit on your own or use replacement parts from different brands.
  • Make sure pressure completely discharges after cooking has finished and before

opening the lid.

• Clean and properly place the water collection cup before each use.
• You may experience some smoke coming out the unit during the first few uses due to the initial heating of the materials; this is normal.
• Unplug the unit when not in use and before cleaning. Allow it to cool before putting on or taking off parts.
• DO NOT let power cord hang over the edges of tables or counters, or touch hot surfaces as it may present a tripping hazard.
• A short power supply cord is provided to reduce injuries resulting from entanglement and tripping. If an extension cord is used, the electrical rating of the cord must be at least 120V/20A. The extension cord must be arranged so that it will not hang over the edge of a table or counter where it can be pulled or accidentally tripped over.

NOTE:

- This appliance has a three-prong grounding plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will only fit one way into a grounded electrical outlet that is easily accessible. DO NOT attempt to modify the plug in anyway if it does not fit into the outlet.

NOTE:

If your yogurt is too thin, run it through a strainer before serving.

Jiu Niang

Jiu Niang, also known as fermented glutinous rice, is a sweet and mildly alcoholic delicacy of Asia. Glutinous rice, more commonly known as sticky rice, is used in making Jiu Niang and contains a high concentration of starch that is converted to sugar during the fermentation process.

NOTE:

Make sure that all tools and utensils are clean and free from bacteria, oil and salt before you start cooking.

1. Soak two cups of glutinous rice in cold water for at least 5 hours until the rice grains become easily broken with fingers. Meanwhile, prepare 1 cup of boiling water and set aside so that it completely cools down.

2. Drain the water and wrap the soaked rice with cheesecloth. Place it into a steaming basket, and place the cheesecloth on steamer rack and add 2 cups of water into the inner pot. Cook the rice using the 'Steam Vegetable' function for 30 minutes. Allow the pressure to naturally release before opening the lid (See Safely Removing the Lid).

3. Place starter yeast powder in a glass or ceramic container, and set the container to the side.

4. Allow the steamed rice to cool down below 95^ F/ 35^ C. Mix the cold boiled water and yeast powder with the rice thoroughly in the container. Make sure that each rice grain is separated, rather than stuck together. Gently press the rice mixture together and leave a hole in the middle of the mixture.

5. Add water to the 3 cup mark in the inner pot. Place the container into the inner pot with the steamer rack. Water should submerge to

about 0.5in/1cm of the bottom of the containers for even heat conduction. Make sure to close the lid of the containers to avoid excess evaporation from the rice.

1. Press the 'Yogurt' button and then press the 'Adjust' button twice for "Less" to access the Jiu Niang function (the display will read "JIUN"). The default fermentation time is 24 hours. You may need to change the time based on the type of yeast used; use the 'Cook Time' button and the '+' and '-' buttons to change the cooking time.
2. Jiu Niang will be ready when the program finishes. A well-made fermented glutinous rice has transparent liquid and some small gas bubbles with an aroma of liquor and is very sweet. If there are some white fungi on the surface, this is normal. If it has black fungi, the rice was contaminated during the process and it should not be consumed. Avoid running the fermentation for too long, which causes the rice to turn sour.
3. When the program is finished, the pressure cooker will beep three times and go into standby mode.

When the programmed temperature exceeds 248^ F/ 120^ C, the maximum time that can be set is 30 minutes.

1. Press 'On/Start' to begin cooking. The display will show the image above, indicating that the unit is pressurizing or heating.

1. Once the unit reaches optimal cooking pressure or temperature, the display will begin to count down.

2. When cooking has finished, the pressure cooker will beep three times and go into standby mode. (See Safely Removing the Lid).

Safely Removing the Lid

CAUTION:

For your safety, open the lid slowly. Escaping steam is hot and may cause burns to exposed skin. Do not open the lid before all pressure has escaped through the exhaust valve and the float valve has completely fallen back into the lid. The handle may also be hot when cooking has finished. The following methods should be used when opening the lid:

QUICK RELEASE

1. Unplug the pressure cooker to turn it off. Use oven mitts or pot holders to switch the pressure release valve from "Sealed" to "Release."

1. Wait until all pressure has released and float valve has dropped down to open the lid.

2. For your safety, open the lid slowly and away from your face. Escaping steam will be hot.

NATURAL RELEASE

1. Unlock the lid by turning it counterclockwise, then carefully lift the lid away from your face. The steam coming out from the pressure cooker will be hot.

NOTE:

It is recommended to use the natural release method when cooking liquids such as soups or rice porridge. Immediately releasing pressure after cooking such foods may result in food spraying out through the pressure release valve.

Care & Maintenance

1. Unplug the pressure cooker and allow it to completely cool before cleaning.

1. DO NOT immerse the base in water or spray any water inside the housing. If necessary, wipe the inside and outside of the base with a clean, damp cloth.

2. Remove the water collection cup. Rinse it out with clean water and wipe it dry with a clean cloth. Place it back onto the side of the pressure cooker.

3. All parts inside the lid can be hand washed separately with water and should always be checked to make sure they are not damaged or cracked.
