Before Using for the First Time

1. Remove all labels and tags from the product. Carefully unpack your pressure cooker; remove all packaging
materials for parts and accessories.
2. Remove the lid by turning the handle counter clockwise to the UNLOCK position and lifting the lid off the unit
3. Wash the cooking pot and all accessories that will come into contact with food in hot soapy water with
a sponge or dishcloth. DO NOT use a scouring pad or any abrasive materials as this could damage the
product. Rinse the cooking pot, accessories and lid thoroughly and dry
4. Avoid leaving the lid fully immersed in water, as it will take a long time to drain & dry
5. Attach the condensation tray to the appliance, simply slide it into place (refer to diagram).
6. Ensure that the well dried cooking pot is sitting flat in the unit with proper contact.
7. Never lift the pressure cooker using the lid handle, always use base handles.

Operating Instructions

NOTE: Place the base on to a dry, level, heat resistant surface, away from the edge of the work surface. Do not
use the appliance on the floor. Small amounts of steam will escape from the safety release valve while heating,
and sometimes during the cooking cycle. This is perfectly normal. Therefore, do not use the Pressure Cooker
under overhanging wall cupboards.
1. Place the dry and clean cooking pot into the inner chamber and ensure that it is seated properly on the
heating plate.
2. Check that gasket is securely placed around the aluminum cover and the aluminum cover is attached to
the housing lid as shown.

in the cooking pot. Never fill the cooking pot more than the FULL level. When cooking foods that may
expand during cooking, do not fill more than half of cooking pot.
