Cleaning and maintenance
Cleaning the pressure cooker
To ensure the correct operation of your pressure
cooker, follow these cleaning and maintenance
recommendations after each use.
• Wash the pressure cooker after each use using
warm, soapy water. Follow the same procedure
for the basket*.
• Never use bleach or products containing chlorine.
• Do not overheat your pan when empty.
To clean the inside of the pan:
• Wash with a scouring pad and dishwashing
liquid.
• The presence of stains on the inside of the
pressure cooker base has no effect on the qua-
lity of the metal. This is simply a scale deposit.
To remove these deposits, you can use a scou-
ring pad and some diluted vinegar.
To clean the outside of the pan:
• Wash using a sponge and dishwashing liquid.
To clean the lid:
• Wash the lid under a gentle stream of running
warm water using a sponge and dishwashing
liquid and rinse well.
To clean the lid seal:
• After each use, clean the seal (I) and its groove.
• To refit the seal, refer to the drawings
11.
To clean the operating valve (A):
• Remove the operating valve (A): Refer to section
"Using the operating valve".
• Wash the operating valve (A) under running
tap water
To clean the steam release outlet on the lid (B):
• Remove the valve (A).
• Visually inspect the steam release outlet in
daylight to make sure that it is clear and round.
If necessary, clean it with a toothpick

The browning and
marks which may
appear following
long use do not
affect the operation
of the pressure
cooker.
To make blackening
of aluminum
disappear from
already used
products : repeat
"first use"
instructions with
baking soda.
Never put the pan,
the lid and the seal
in the dishwasher.

pressure cooker life,
do not overheat
your pressure
cooker pan when it
is empty.
