IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY • READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
34 DO NOT touch hot surfaces.
Appliance surfaces are hot
during and after operation. To
prevent burns or personal injury,
ALWAYS use protective hot pads
or insulated oven mitts and use
available handles and knobs.
35 Extreme caution must be used
when the cooker contains hot
oil, hot food, or hot liquids, or
if the cooker is under pressure.
Improper use, including moving
the cooker, may result in personal
injury. When using this appliance
to pressure cook, ensure the lid is
properly assembled and locked
into position before use. Food are
under extreme pressure during
pressure cooking. Failure to
follow all instructions regarding
proper usage of the product may
result in unintended contact with
hot foods or liquids that have
been pressurised, resulting in
serious burns.
36 Caution should be used when
searing meats and sautéing. Keep
hands and face away from the
removable cooking pot, especially
when adding new ingredients, as
hot oil may splatter.
37 When unit is in operation, hot
steam is released through the air
exhaust vent. Place unit so vent
is not directed toward the power
cord, sockets, cabinets or other
appliances. Keep your hands and
face at a safe distance from vent.
38 DO NOT tamper with,
disassemble, or otherwise
remove the float valve or
pressure release assembly.

39 DO NOT attempt to open the lid
during or after pressure cooking
until all internal pressure has
been released through the
pressure release valve and the
unit has cooled slightly. Remove
lid promptly to avoid
re-pressurisation of the inner pot.
40 DO NOT use Pressure Lid when
Sear/Sauté function is selected.
41 When using SLOW COOK
ALWAYS keep the pressure lid
closed and the pressure release
valve in the VENT position. If the
lid is closed and the pressure
release valve is in the SEAL
position, an audible alarm will
sound. "VENT" error code will
appear on LED display to signal
the need to turn the pressure
release valve to the VENT position.
42 When using the PRESSURE
COOK setting, ALWAYS keep
the pressure lid locked and the
pressure release valve turned
anticlockwise to the SEAL
position.
43
If the lid will not turn to unlock,
this indicates the appliance is
still under pressure. DO NOT
intentionally press down on float
valve. Any pressure remaining can
be hazardous. Let unit naturally
release pressure or turn the
Pressure Release Valve slowly to
the VENT position to release steam.
Take care to avoid contact with the
releasing steam to avoid burns or
injury. When steam is completely
released the float valve will be in
the lower position allowing the lid
to be removed. If steam does not
release when the pressure release
valve is moved to vent, unplug the
unit from the wall and let the unit
naturally release pressure.
44 Spilled food can cause serious
burns. Keep appliance and cord
away from children. DO NOT let
cord hang over edge of tables or
counters or touch hot surfaces.
45 Serious burns can result from the
steam and hot foods inside the
inner pot. ALWAYS keep hands,
face, and other body parts away
from the pressure release valve
prior to or during pressure release
and when removing the pressure
lid after cooking.
46 When removing the lid, DO NOT
lift the lid straight up as this may
not release the seal between the
lid and pot, increasing the risk of
food splashing.
47 ALWAYS tilt the lid so that it is
between your body and the inner
pot so that you can be shielded
from steam and hot liquids.
48 The cooking pot, Cook & Crisp™
Basket or Plate, and reversible
rack become extremely hot
during the cooking process. Avoid
hot steam and air while removing
the cooking pot and Cook &
Crisp™ Basket or Plate from the
appliance, and ALWAYS place
them on a heat resistant surface
after removing. DO NOT touch
accessories during or immediately
after cooking.
