Lid (1). Manufactured in 18/10 stainless
steel. The lid (1) needs to be closed properly
for the pressure cooker to reach sufficient
working pressure. To fit the lid (1) easily,
●
align the /
the lid handle (5) with the
on the pot body handle (10) (Fig. 1).
CAUTION: never force cooker closing
or opening.
Pressure sensor (2). This lets you see
there is pressure inside the cooker. As the
cooking liquid heats, it generates pressure
inside the cooker and the pressure sensor
(2) lifts automatically. When this happens,
you will be able to see steam escape from
the side of the lid handle (5) (Fig. 2). When
the pressure sensor (2) is raised, this
indicates that pressure is present and it will
block the automatic open/close button (4),
preventing opening of the lid (1). If the pot
is not closed properly, it will never generate
pressure and the pressure sensor (2) will
not rise. When the pressure sensor (2) is
not raised, this indicates that there is no
pressure inside the pot and you can remove
the lid (1) safely.
Pressure regulator valve (3) (Duo and
Rapid Xpress models). This keeps the
pressure stable inside the pot. The pressure
regulator valve (3) has two pressure levels

(positions 1 and 2). At position 1 (Fig. 3),
the pressure regulator valve (3) works at
60 kPa (fast cooking) and at position 2 (Fig.
4) it works at 100 kPa (super-fast cooking).
When the pressure cooker reaches the
selected pressure level, you will need to
reduce the heat source to a medium-low
power to allow it to keep the pressure
stable. The pressure regulator valve (3) also
has a position for quick release of steam
(Fig. 5) and another position for extraction
of the valve itself
that the pressure regulator valve (3) does
not turn as easily to the extraction position
as it does to the other positions.
