Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the material of construction?
This appliance has a stainless steel housing
and Inner Pot.
2. How do you assemble/disassemble the Unit?
This appliance comes fully assembled with
the Float Valve, Pressure Release Valve, and
Inner Lid already assembled in the Pressure
Lid. Attach the Condensation Collector before
operation (see PREPARING FOR PRESSURE
COOKING, p. 18).
3. What is the default time?
Each cooking mode has a default time
that appears as soon as you select a desired
program button. Before the timer on the LCD
Display begins counting down, the appliance
must first reach the proper pressure and/or
temperature for that mode.
4. How long does it take for the Unit to reach
full pressure and for the cook time clock
to start a countdown?
When the Unit reaches the desired cooking
pressure, the LCD Display will change color
from orange to red and the cooking time will
begin counting down. The time required
to reach the desired pressure setting depends
on the volume, concentration, and ratios of solid
to liquid in the Unit – generally 5–40 mins.
5. Can you change the cook time from
the default setting?
Yes! You can change the cook time two ways.
Select SHORT, MED, or LONG. These
are preprogrammed settings that will give
a predetermined time. Alternatively, select
the Time Button to adjust the cooking time
to suit your needs.
