Your pressure cooker is fitted with several safety
devices:
• Closing safety:
- The jaws must be in contact with the rim of the lid.
If this is not the case, there is steam leakage from
the pressure indicator and the pressure cooker will
not build up pressure.
• Opening safety:
- If the pressure cooker is under pressure, the
opening button cannot be pressed.
- Never try to force the pressure cooker open.
- Above all do not interfere with the pressure
indicator.
- Make sure that the internal pressure has fallen.
• Two safety devices operate to prevent overpres-
sure:
- First device: the safety valve (F) releases the
pressure and steam escapes
- Second device: the seal allows steam to escape
from between the lid and the pan
If one of the overpressure safety systems is
triggered:
• Turn off the heat source.
• Let the pressure cooker cool down completely.
• Open it (refer to section "Opening").
• Check and clean the operating valve (A), the
steam release outlet (C), the safety valve (F) and
the seal (G).
• If, after these checks and cleaning, your product
leaks or no longer works, take it to a TEFAL
Approved Service Centre. Contact the Customer
Relations Helpline - see contact list.
You must have your
pressure cooker checked
in a TEFAL Approved
Service Centre after 10
years of use.
