Care and Cleaning
After each use, all safety devices must be cleaned. Unplug and let the
pressure cooker cool to room temperature before cleaning:
•
To remove the pressure release valve,
simply pull up and the valve will release
from its spring locked mechanism. Wash
it under running warm water, replace by
simply pushing it down onto the spring
loaded mechanism. Always remove
the pressure release valve and clean
the opening with a pin to remove any
blockage that may have occurred during
the cooking process.
•
To clean underneath the aluminium inner
lid, the float valve and silicon gasket pull
out the inner lid using the knob. Wash in
warm soapy water.
•
Wipe the inner lid and inside the lid with
warm soapy water.
•
Remove the gasket seal and wipe with
warm soapy water. Dry and replace on
the aluminium inner lid. It must always
be properly positioned on the inner lid.
Check periodically to make sure that it is
clean, flexible and not torn.
Pressure Canning Guide
•
To begin, select a recipe that has been

Ensure the ingredients are at their freshest
and prepare the food as instructed.
•
Fill the canning jars so that there is a
headspace of around 1 inch.
•
Gently press the food and the jar side to
remove any trapped air bubbles.
•
Follow the manufacturer's guidelines on
how to seal the canning jars.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
•
Ensure the float valve is not clogged and
can move up and down freely, wipe if
necessary.
•
The inner pot and lid are fully immersible
in water for cleaning. Rinse inner pot
and lid under hot running water, using
only a mild detergent and a soft cloth
or sponge. Drain any excess water from
the lid by tilting it on it's side. Do not use
abrasive powders, bicarbonate of soda
or bleach. Do not use scouring pads.
•
Wipe the base unit with a soft damp
cloth, making sure all food residue is
removed. DO NOT IMMERSE BASE IN
WATER.
•
Select the canning function.
•
Select the cancel function once
complete. Release the pressure release
valve and carefully open the lid once all
pressure has been released.
•
Using canning tongs (sold separately),
remove the hot jars and allow them to
cool to room temperature.
•
If after following the manufacturers
sealing instructions the lid has not sealed
correctly do not store this food as it will
not keep. It must be reprocessed or
eaten straight away.
•
Properly processed will last for
months. Store in a clean dry and cool
atmosphere.
