Place the Steam Valve in its place on top of the Lid. The rib of the Steam Valve and its
base on the Lid should be aligned for unit to pressurize properly.
NOTE: If the Steam Valve is not closed correctly, unit will not function.
NOTE: It is common for some steam condensation to appear at the bottom of the valve.
This is part of the regular operation of the unit.
CAUTION: Be careful with the steam that comes out of the valve.
WARNING: HOT STEAM UNDER PRESSURE WILL ESCAPE FROM THE TOP OF
THE VALVE.

OPERATION OF THE CONTROL PANEL

Operation of the Control Panel:
1. a. Connect the unit to an electric outlet, you will hear a beep sound, all indicator lights
of the intelligent programs will start blinking and the LED Display will lit up showing
0:00. If no action is taken for a few minutes, the lights and LED Display will turn off
until any button is pressed.
b. To get started, press the "Function" button to select the desired intelligent cooking
program. Once a function is selected, the indicator light of that program will light up
and the LED Display will show the time it will take to cook once unit starts cooking
under pressure. For each function, the pressure-cooking time will only initiate after
the pre-heating time of approximately 14 minutes. Please note that this time will vary
depending on the size, quantity, weight and temperature of the food to be cooked.
Please refer to the "COOKING GUIDE" for cooking times by type of food. Heat up
time during the pre-heating stage might also be shorter if unit is used back to back
several times without letting it cool down between operations.
c. Once you have selected the function, you should select the cooking level, which
includes five levels from min to max by pressing the Cooking Level Button. When
selecting the cooking level, the LED Display will show the pressure-cooking time for
each level. Please follow the table below in order to select the desired/required
cooking level:
