Solution
Turn the TIMER KNOB to 0 (unless already off). Rotate the VENT
RELEASE VALVE to the VENT position and wait until all steam has
released. Raise the SEALING LEVER to the STANDARD mode. Press
the DOOR RELEASE BUTTON to open the door.
WARNING! Never attempt to raise the SEALING LEVER or open the
door until all steam has been vented from the VENT RELEASE VALVE.
Failure to do so could result in a scalding injury.
This is a normal occurrence when cooking in pressure mode
This is a normal occurrence.
For cooking times greater than 2 hours, the timer will need to be reset
by turning the Timer Knob to the 0 (off) position first then back to the
desired remaining time. As an example, if you set your Timer Knob to
1 hour and 45 minutes and then increase the time without turning the
knob to the off position first, the oven will shut off automatically after 2
hours total cooking time.
Ensure the oven's VENT RELEASE VALVE is in the SEAL position, the
SEALING LEVER is in the SEAL position, and the Temperature Knob is set
per chart or recipe.
Do not open the door excessively during the cooking process. Use the
time in the cooking chart or recipe and check the temperature once the
shortest cooking time has expired
The Pressure Oven will shut off automatically once the timer has expired.
Ensure that the proper amount of time was set on the timer. For cooking
times greater than 2 hours, the timer will need to be reset by turning
the Timer Knob to the 0 (off) position first then back to the desired
remaining time.
The times and charts throughout the manual are general guidelines only;
adjust cooking times to desired doneness. Meats and poultry should be
cooked to final safe temperature as indicated by an instant read
thermometer
Turn the Timer knob to the Off position and unplug the oven. Using a
hand towel or oven mitt grasp the Vent Release Valve tab and apply
downward pressure while twisting left and right. Contact customer
service for replacement part.
CAUTION: Oven surfaces are hot, do not attempt to vent the oven
without adequate protection for your hand.
