A NOTE ABOUT PRESSURE COOKING
Pressure cookers generate steam in order to build pressure.
Liquid is needed to create steam. So in order for your Crock-
Pot Express to build enough pressure to cook your meal, there
®
needs to be enough liquid in the pot to boil and generate steam.
One cup or 8 oz of liquid (it can be water, chicken broth, etc.) is
usually enough liquid to successfully build pressure. If your recipe
.
is too thick or doesn't have enough liquid in it, then you will
receive an E6 Notification Code during the cooking cycle.
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR CROCK-POT
1. Remove the Pressure Lid by turning clockwise to unlock,
aligning with
Pressure Lid and wash the gasket and the Pressure Lid in
warm soapy water. Dry the Sealing Gasket and Pressure
Lid thoroughly before reattaching the Sealing Gasket to
the Pressure Lid. Ensure the Sealing Gasket is smoothly and
securely in place in the Gasket Fixing Ring. If the Sealing
Gasket is not in the correct position the Pressure Lid will not
be able to form a seal and will not be able to gain pressure.
2. Remove the Cooking Pot and the Condensation Collector
and wash in warm, soapy water. Dry thoroughly before
replacing back in the Cooker.
The Crock-Pot Express Crisp has been designed with safety in
®
mind and has various safety measures.
1. Pressure will not build if the Pressure Lid is not shut correctly
and has not sealed.
2. Ensure the Pressure Lid is in the locked position and the
aligned with .
3. Pressure will not build if the Steam Release Valve has not
been switched to the "Seal"
CAUTION: When in the "Seal"
steam may still be released from the Steam Release Valve on
the Pressure Lid to regulate the proper amount of pressure
for cooking. Always keep face and hands clear of Steam
Release Valve.
