SMART SETTINGS
The Fast Slow Pro™ features 6 Smart Settings; Pressure Cook, Slow Cook, Steam, Sear, Sauté, and Reduce. Pressure and slow cook settings have a list of commonly used food types with preset cooking times and temperatures/ pressure levels to give the best results; however, we suggest experimenting with these depending on the recipe, amount of food being cooked, and your personal taste. Alternatively, you can use the CUSTOM setting to select your own cooking times and temperatures/ pressure levels.
Your CUSTOM setting will remain in the memory of the cooker, even after the cooker is unplugged. To reset to the factory setting, unplug cooker from the power outlet and press and hold the START/SELECT dial while plugging it back in. The letter 'd' and a number will briefly appear on the screen, confirming the reset to factory settings.
HANDS-FREE VARIABLE STEAM RELEASE
The Fast Slow Pro ^TM features 3 steam release methods:
Auto Quick
Pressure is released quickly to minimize overcooking of foods or recipes with short cook times.
Auto Pulse
Pressure is released in bursts to reduce disturbance to the food inside, as well as prevent foam from starchy foods from spraying out of the release valve.
Natural
Pressure subsides naturally without releasing steam through the pressure release valve to prevent the churning up or breaking apart of sensitive ingredients like stocks and beans during pressure release.
The desired steam release method can be selected using the RELEASE button on the control panel.

The selected steam release method will automatically start at the end of the PRESSURE COOK cycle.
Pressing and holding the RELEASE button while the unit is pressurized will open the pressure release valve for 30 seconds.
KEEP WARM
The KEEP WARM function maintains hot foods at safe serving temperature (140°F/60°C or above) until you are ready to serve. The default KEEP WARM time is 2 hours and it can be adjusted up to a maximum of 4 hours. Turn the TIME dial to adjust the programmed KEEP WARM time. After the time is set the LCD screen will continue counting up.
To use KEEP WARM as a standalone function, press the KEEP WARM button on the control panel while in the main settings menu. The LCD screen will display 'KEEP WARM' and the timer will start counting up.

The KEEP WARM function will automatically switch on after any SLOW COOK cycle; however it can be toggled on and off in both PRESSURE COOK and SLOW COOK using the KEEP WARM button on the control panel.
STOP/CANCEL BUTTON AND STANDBY MODE
Pressing the STOP/CANCEL button during any cooking cycle will pause the cycle for up to 5 minutes. If the cycle is not restarted during this time, the cooker will go into standby mode.
Pressing the STOP/CANCEL button during setup or while the cooker is paused will return to the previous screen.
Pressing the STOP/CANCEL button from the main settings menu will switch the cooker to standby mode.
Press and hold the STOP/CANCEL button for 2 seconds at any time to enter standby mode. If there is pressure inside the cooker when it switches to standby mode, it will instead switch to pressure release mode with Natural release selected. Press the RELEASE button to switch to a different release method or press and hold the RELEASE button for an extended release.
ALTITUDE ADJUST
At higher altitudes, the temperature at which water boils decreases as a result of the drop in air pressure. This lower air pressure creates very different conditions for cooking with a pressure cooker.
In order to maintain consistent cooking results at various altitudes, the Fast Slow Pro ^™ has an Altitude Adjust feature that adjusts the settings based on the altitude of your current location.
- To enter Altitude Adjust mode, press and hold STOP/CANCEL to activate standby mode. The button backlight will go out and the LCD screen will no longer illuminate.
- Once in standby, press and hold both the KEEP WARM and RELEASE buttons for 2 seconds. 'ALt' will appear on the screen.
- Turn the TIME dial to enter the altitude of your current location. Altitude can be adjusted from 1,000 ft to 6,000 ft in 1,000 ft increments. The pressure cooker should not be used above 6,500 ft.

PRESSURE COOK
The PRESSURE COOK setting is a great option for cooking succulent meats, richly flavored stews, delicious soups and even desserts in a fraction of the time and energy taken by conventional cooking methods.
Pressure cooking is a method of cooking food and a small amount of liquid in a gasket-sealed vessel. All the steam from cooking gets retained inside the vessel, building pressure. This increase in pressure raises the temperature of the liquid and steam inside to well above boiling point, allowing food to be cooked up to 70% faster.

TIPS FOR PRESSURE & SLOW COOKING
Rice
- The PRESSURE COOK RICE setting is designed to cook rice so the rice grains remain separate and tender. It is suitable for all types of rice such as long grain, jasmine, basmati and brown rice.
- When pressure cooking brown rice, increase the cooking time to 20 minutes.
- Measure or weigh dry rice accurately and wash well with cold water until water runs clear. Drain well and place into the removable cooking bowl.
- Add corresponding water amount. For white rice use 1.25 parts water to 1 part rice. For brown rice use 1.5 parts water to 1 part rice. Refer to the table on this page for more information.
• After cooking, allow rice to stand in bowl for 5 minutes before stirring and serving. - Rice will swell and double in size after cooking. Do not overfill the cooking bowl. The total volume of uncooked rice and liquid should not exceed the ‘ 1/2 ’ level marking inside the removable cooking bowl.

Risotto
- The PRESSURE COOK RISOTTO setting is ideal for making creamy risotto, without all the stirring and in a fraction of the time.
- Use the SAUTÉ setting to soften onions and other aromatics, as well as deglaze the cooking bowl with wine.
- The key to creamy risotto is toasting the rice grains before the liquid is added. Use the SAUTÉ setting to toast the rice, stirring frequently, for 3–5 minutes or until the edges become transparent and then turn white.
- With little or no evaporation during pressure cooking, it is important to keep to the ratio of 1 part rice to 3 parts stock. If adding a lot of vegetables to the risotto, reduce stock by a third.
- Rice will swell and double in size after cooking. Do not overfill the cooking bowl. The total volume of uncooked rice and stock should not exceed the 12 level marking inside the removable cooking bowl.
Vegetables
- The PRESSURE COOK VEGETABLES setting is ideal for cooking both large and small portions of various hard vegetables.
- Vegetables can be left whole and unpeeled or cut into smaller pieces and peeled as desired. If pressure cooking whole vegetables, wash well and prick 3–4 times with a knife or fork.
- Add 1 cup of water to the cooking bowl along with prepared vegetables. Vegetables can be placed directly in the cooking bowl, on the rack or in the steamer basket.
- The size and age of vegetables will impact cooking time. Increase the time for larger vegetables.
- Use the STEAM setting for softer vegetables such as broccoli, green beans and asparagus.
- Do not overfill the cooking bowl. The total volume of vegetables should not exceed the 'MAX' level marking inside the removable cooking bowl.

Stock
- The PRESSURE & SLOW COOK STOCK setting is suitable for making all kinds of stock, including chicken, beef and vegetable.
- To make a brown stock, use the SEAR setting to brown bones and vegetables prior to pressure or slow cooking.
- Vegetables such as onions, carrots and celery should be cut into large pieces. This will help keep the stock clear and make it easier to strain at the end of cooking.
- To shorten the pressurizing time, add cold water to bowl while still in the SEAR setting and allow the water to come to a simmer before pressure cooking.
- Do not overfill the cooking bowl. The total volume of water, bones and/or aromatics should not exceed the 'MAX' level marking inside the removable cooking bowl.
Soup
- The PRESSURE & SLOW COOK SOUP setting is suitable for cooking a variety of soups from light broths to hearty minestrone to pureed vegetable soups.
- Use the SAUTÉ setting to soften aromatics and vegetables prior to pressure or slow cooking. Use the SEAR setting to brown meats, bacon or chicken.
- To shorten the pressurizing time, add cold water/stock to bowl while still in the SAUTÉ or SEAR setting and allow the water to come to a simmer before pressure cooking.
- Do not overfill the cooking bowl. The total volume of soup should not exceed the 'MAX' level marking inside the removable cooking bowl.
Beans
- The PRESSURE & SLOW COOK BEANS setting is suitable for cooking all types of dried beans, lentils and other legumes.
- When slow cooking dried kidney, cannellini or broad beans, it is necessary to boil them for 10 minutes before slow cooking. This neutralizes a toxin called phytohemagglutinin that can cause acute digestive distress.
- Beans and other legumes can produce a lot of foam during cooking. The preset NATURAL steam release setting ensures foam does not interfere with the steam release valve.
- Cooking times are based on unsoaked dried beans. To shorten the cooking time, soak beans in cold water overnight. Discard soaking water and cook with fresh cold water for half of the preset cooking time.
- Use a ratio of 1 part beans to 3 parts water.
- Beans and legumes swell and double in size after cooking. Do not overfill the cooking bowl. The total volume of uncooked legumes and water should not exceed the 1/2 level marking inside the removable cooking bowl.
Chili & Stew
- The PRESSURE & SLOW COOK CHILI & STEW setting is ideal for cooking ground meat chilies, meat sauces and hearty stews.
- Use the SEAR & SAUTÉ settings to brown meat and soften aromatics prior to cooking.
- Unlike traditional stovetop methods, pressure and slow cooking have almost no evaporation. For thick, rich chilies and stews use less liquid than called for in traditional recipes. Use the REDUCE setting after cooking to thicken foods that are too soupy.
- Do not overfill the cooking bowl. The total volume of uncooked chili or stew ingredients should not exceed the 'MAX' level marking inside the removable cooking bowl.
Poultry

- Do not overfill the cooking bowl. The total volume of uncooked ingredients should not exceed the 'MAX' level marking inside the removable cooking bowl.
Meat
- The PRESSURE & SLOW COOK MEAT setting uses high temperature/pressure to dissolve connective tissue, producing fork-tender, succulent results. Sauces become thick and well developed.
- Choose well-marbled cuts of meat for the best flavor and texture.
- Cut larger pieces of meat into 2 or 3 pieces to better fit the cooking bowl.
- Use the SEAR setting to brown meat prior to cooking.
- Unlike traditional stewing or braising, pressure and slow cooking have almost no evaporation. For deeply flavored dishes, use less liquid than called for in traditional recipes, 1 - 112 cups (240-360ml) maximum.
- Do not overfill the cooking bowl. The total volume of uncooked ingredients should not exceed the 'MAX' level marking inside the removable cooking bowl.
Bone-in Meat

Care & Cleaning
Before cleaning, ensure the cooker is turned off, unplugged, cooled to room temperature and all pressure has been released.
Do not use harsh abrasives, caustic cleaners or oven cleaners when cleaning the cooker. Cleaning with a dry cloth or abrasive cleaners may scratch the surface.
Cleaning the bowl and outer body
-
The removable cooking bowl can be washed in the dishwasher. However, to maintain the ceramic coating, it is recommended to wash the cooking bowl in warm soapy water. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly.
-
Wipe the moat and outer body with a soft, damp sponge. Apply the cleanser to the sponge, not the cooker surface, before cleaning.
-
Remove the condensation drip cup by gently pulling the bottom away from the body. Wash in warm soapy water, rinse with clean water, dry thoroughly and click back into position.
-
Wipe the LCD screen with a soft damp cloth.
-
Let all surfaces dry thoroughly prior to inserting the power plug into a power outlet and turning the cooker on.

WARNING
To avoid electric shock, do not immerse the cord, plug or cooker in water (or other liquids).
Cleaning the lid
-
Open the lid. Unscrew and remove the sealing nut from the center of the lid and pull the lid away from the lid arm.
-
Gently pull the silicone gasket out from around the wire ring on the underside of the lid.
-
Wash the sealing nut and pressure release valve in warm soapy water. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly.
-
Wash the silicone gasket and the lid on the top rack of the dishwasher. Alternatively, wash in warm soapy water, rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly.
-
After cleaning the lid, regularly inspect and ensure the following:
a) Safety locking pin moves up and down freely. Always remove any oil or food residue left on this area.
