Operation Manual

• Pressure cookers are under pressure when in use!

Not adhering to the Instructions for Use can lead

to burns and scalding. Make sure that the cooker

is properly closed before it is heated up (see Chap-

ter 7).

• Keep an eye on the pressure cooker while cooking,

especially the indicator rod. Regulate the energy

level so that the indicator rod does not rise above

the desired cooking setting. In this case, if the en-

ergy level is not decreased, steam will escape

through the valve. Cooking times will change, and

a total loss of liquid can result in damage to the

cooker and burner.

• Move the pressure cooker very carefully when it is

under pressure. Do not touch the hot outer sur-

faces of the pressure cooker, as you could burn

yourself by doing so! Only touch the handles when

cooking, and use potholder gloves when necessary.

• Pressure cookers must be shaken before opening.

This will prevent pockets of steam which might be

caught within the food from spattering up when the

pressure cooker is opened and scalding you. Do

not cook applesauce or stewed fruits in a pressure

cooker.

• Never try to force the pressure cooker open. Do

not open it before you are certain that the steam in-

side has been expelled completely. Follow the in-

structions for opening the cooker (Chapter 8).

• Always keep your hands, head and body out of the

danger zone when releasing steam from the pres-

sure cooker! Be particularly careful about this

when depressurizing with the safety slide.

• If you have cooked meat with skin (e.g. tongue) or

sausage with casing which can swell when under

pressure, do not pierce the skin as long as it is

swollen. This could result in scalding!

• If the pressure cooker – or any of its parts – is dam-

aged or does not function as described in the In-

structions for Use, do not use the pressure cooker.
