1. Safety instructions

• Read the Instructions for Use carefully before us-

ing your pressure cooker for the first time. Do not

permit anyone who is not familiar with these In-

structions to use the cooker.

• Keep children away from the pressure cooker

when it is being used.

• Only use the pressure cooker for the purposes de-

scribed in the Instructions for Use.

• Never place the pressure cooker or pressure skil-

let in the oven, as this would destroy plastic and

rubber parts and the safety mechanisms. Do not

cover the pressure skillet or pressure cooker when

deep-frying.

• Only use the pressure cooker with the heat sources

which are described in the Instructions for Use

(see Chapter 2).

• Pressure cookers are not to be used for medical

purposes, especially not as sterilizers, as pressure

cookers are not designed to reach the tempera-

tures necessary for sterilization.

• Before using your pressure cooker, and each time

you use it, check to make sure that the safety mech-

anisms are not damaged or dirty (see Chapter 7).

• Do not alter the safety mechanisms, except for the

maintenance measures described in the Instruc-

tions for Use. Do not repair or oil the valves! Use

only original Fissler replacement parts (see Chap-

ter 11), to ensure that your pressure cooker will

function properly and safely.

• Make sure that parts which wear out, such as the

rubber gasket, silicone membrane, O-ring for the

Euromatic, and valve base seal, are replaced after

1-2 years at the latest by Fissler original replace-

ment parts. Replace parts which show discol-

orations, have cracks or other damage, or do not

fit correctly with Fissler original replacement

parts before using the pressure cooker again.

• Make sure that you only use your Fissler pressure

cooker with the Fissler pressure cooker lid for the

same model.

• Never use your pressure cooker without adding

liquid, as this could result in damage from over-

heating to the cooker and the burner. Adhere

strictly to the following content amounts:

Minimum:

liter (2 cups) of liquid.

Maximum: 2/3 of the volume of the pressure

cooker. For foods which foam or rise (e.g. rice,

legumes, broths, or dried vegetables),

of the vol-

ume of the cooker.

Use the volume indicator inside the cooker and ad-

ditional information in Chapter 7.
