Boiling & Simmering
The settings BOIL and SIMMER do not cook under pressure. They work similarly to standard
cooking, requiring dry heat, and therefore do not need the Lid.
Do not use the Lid with these functions.
BOIL
The BOIL function is perfect for preparing meals like pasta and poached eggs.
LOW setting: This is suitable for boiling low volumes of food, such as from the bottom of the
Cooking Pot to the 1/3 mark.
HIGH setting: This is suitable for boiling higher volumes of food, such as between the 1/3 to 1/2
marks. Do not fill the Cooking Pot above the 1/2 mark when using the BOIL function on HIGH
temperature.
SIMMER
Thicken sauces and make gravies at the end of cooking using the SIMMER function.
LOW setting: This is suitable for simmering low volumes of food, such as between the bottom of
the Cooking Pot and the 1/3 mark.
HIGH setting: This is suitable for simmering higher volumes of food, such as between the 1/3
and 1/2 marks in the Cooking Pot.
Using the STERILISE Function
• Place the Multi-Cooker on a flat, level
surface.
• Place Cooking Pot inside Heating Base.
Plug the Multi-Cooker into a wall outlet.
The Multi-Cooker will beep, and the Display
Screen will illuminate with four dashes
(- - - -).
• Add 250ml of water to the bottom of the
removable Cooking Pot and insert the
cooking rack. Ensure water is just under
the wires of the rack so that items are not
touching the water.
• Place items to be sterilised onto the
cooking rack.
• Place the Lid on and lock by rotating
counterclockwise to the LOCKED
position.
• Using the finger tab, flick the Steam
Release Valve to the "Seal" position.

• Press the STERILISE button and press
START/STOP.
Note: Time and pressure settings cannot be
adjusted with this function.
• The Multi-Cooker needs to gain pressure
before pressure cooking can begin. When
the Multi-Cooker is gaining pressure,
"HEAT" will appear on the Display Screen
and the time will not count down. The
Status Bar will illuminate to track the
pressurisation progress cooking will begin.
When pressure has been reached, "HEAT"
will disappear on the Display Screen, and
the time will begin to count down.
To Change a Setting
It's easy to switch functions during cooking.
Press the START/STOP button and then select
the new desired cooking function. A new
timer will flash on the Display Screen, and the
selected function will also flash. Select the
desired time, pressure, and/or temperature.
Press the START/STOP button and the new
function will begin preheating.
To Change the Cooking Time
You can change the cooking time before
cooking begins by pressing the + and -
buttons before pressing START/STOP. Press
and release to change slowly. Press and hold
to change time quickly. If you pass the desired
temperature or time, press the opposite
button.
To Change the Temperature and Pressure
You can change the temperature or pressure
on certain pre-set functions before cooking
begins by pressing the TEMP/PRESSURE
button before pressing START/STOP. The
Display Screen will illuminate TEMP or
PRESSURE, depending on which setting is
being adjusted. The temperature may only
be adjusted on the SLOW COOK, YOGURT,
BOIL, SIMMER, BROWN/SEAR and SAUTÉ
functions. (see the Cooking Guide on page 15
for available adjustments).
