Cleaning and Storage Instructions

Before using for the first time and after each use, wash all Pressure
Cooker parts by hand. Always unplug unit and allow to cool completely
before cleaning.
1. Remove the Gasket from the Lid. Wash
Gasket thoroughly in hot, soapy water.
Rinse and dry thoroughly. Apply a thin
coating of vegetable oil to the Gasket after
each use. This will extend the life of the
Gasket. Slip the Gasket back in place on
the inside of the Lid.
2. The Gasket that fits inside the Lid may become worn after many uses.
If it becomes torn, cracked, cut or visibly damaged, DO NOT USE
THE PRESSURE COOKER. Call Consumer Service at 800-947-3744 to
order a new Gasket. If the Pressure Indicator Valve Gasket becomes
damaged, the Lid must be sent in for repair or replacement.
3. Clean around the openings of the Pressure Lift Pin and Lift Pin
Gasket with warm soapy water to keep it free of grease or food
particles that could keep it from operating properly. Rinse
and dry thoroughly.
4. To expose the Steam Vent Tube, the Pressure
Regulator must be removed. Press down and
turn the Pressure Regulator counter-
clockwise to the CLEAN position, until it
stops. Lift up on the Pressure Regulator
and remove.
Hold the Pressure Cooker Lid up to the light
to make sure the Steam Vent Tube is clear. If
the Steam Vent Tube is blocked, carefully
insert the Cleaning Brush into the Steam Vent
Tube and run it gently in and out to clear any
obstructions. Wash again with soapy water,
rinse and dry thoroughly. (See Important
Safety Information.)
