12. Close the pressure canner. When properly closed, the lid and pot handles
are aligned.
13. Position the symbol
the pressure cooker on high heat until steam begins to exit the steam
release outlet. Continue letting pressure cooker release steam for 10
minutes.
14. After 10 minutes, position the recommended symbol
(A) opposite the marker (L).
15. When the operating valve releases steam in a continuous manner, giving
off a regulator sound (PSSSCHT), lower the heat
WARNING: Cooking times must be strictly adhered to and the pressure
canner should not be placed in a draft while cooking. Canning can take from
45 to 90 minutes in a large pressure canner filled to full capacity.
16. The cooking time begins when the operating valve starts to release steam.
17. Once the cooking time is over, turn off the heat source and let the pressure
canner cool down.
WARNING: Do not rapidly cool the pressure cooker/canner by submerging
it in water or letting it stand under a tap of running water. Never remove
the operating valve to reduce pressure.
18. Once the pressure has dropped completely, position the symbol
valve (A) opposite the marker (L)
WARNING: Steam may cause scalding and the operating valve may be very
hot. Protect your hands with oven mitts.
NB : You may hear a whistling noise when moving the operating valve. If no
steam exits the pressure cooker, this is caused by air re-entering the device.
19. Remove the jars with a jar tong. Place them on a hot plate/trivet or several
folded dish towels.
WARNING: Never place the hot jars on a cold or wet surface, this could
cause them to break.
20. Seal the jars if they do not seal automatically. Even if no liquid has escaped
during the canning process, seal the jar as it is. Do not add liquid, as this
would mean having to restart the canning process from the beginning.
Fruits and vegetables that are not completely covered by the liquid may
turn brown, but they will be properly preserved.
21. Let the jars cool. Keep the jars upright and away from any drafts.
22. After 12 hours, remove the screw-on metal rings from the jars.
If a ring is difficult to remove, cover it with a hot, damp towel for 1 minute to
make the metal expand. After 1 minute, the ring should come off easily. If the
ring still does not come off easily, leave it in place.
WARNING: Never remove rings with force. You risk breaking the gasket.
