PREPARING YOUR PRESSURE COOKER

1. Opening the lid: Hold the handle (1) firmly, turn the lid (2) clockwise until it loosens

2. Remove the inner pot (6) and add desired ingredients. The amount of water and
food should not exceed 4/5 of the height of the inner Pot (6) (Figure 12). For food
that will expand in water, the level should not exceed 3/5 of the Inner Pot (6) (Figure
13). The minimum level for cooking would be 1/5 of the Inner Pot (6) (Figure 14).
3. Be certain the inner receptacle, where the Electronic
Heater is located, is clean and dry before inserting
the Inner Pot (6) into the pressure cooker and adjust
the pot left and right to ensure optimal contact
between the Inner Pot and the Electronic Heater
( Figure 15).
Cooking Rice
When cooking rice, the maximum amount of rice allowed for this 10 quart pressure
cooker is 20 cups of uncooked rice.
Normally one cup of rice requires one cup of water. This may vary according to
taste.
