thermometer to check that your
food is cooked to the temperatures
recommended.
32 DO NOT place the appliance near the
edge of a worktop during operation.
33 To avoid possible steam damage,

cabinets during use.
34 Should the unit emit black smoke,
unplug immediately and wait for

35 DO NOT touch hot surfaces.
Appliance surfaces are hot during

burns or personal injury, ALWAYS
use protective hot pads or insulated
oven mitts and use available handles
and knobs.
36 Extreme caution must be used when
the cooker contains hot oil, hot food,
or hot liquids, or if the cooker is under
pressure. Improper use, including
moving the cooker, may result in
personal injury. When using this
appliance to pressure cook, ensure
the lid is properly assembled and
locked into position before use.
37 Caution should be used when searing
meats and sautéing in hot oil. Keep
hands and face away from the
removable cooking pot, especially
when adding new ingredients, as hot
oil may splatter.
38 When unit is in operation, hot steam
is released through the air socket
vent. Place unit so vent is not directed
toward the power cord, sockets, or
other appliances. Keep your hands
and face at a safe distance from vent.
39 DO NOT attempt to open the lid
during or after pressure cooking until
all internal pressure has been released
through the pressure release valve
and the unit has cooled slightly.
DO NOT tamper with, disassemble,
or otherwise remove the red float
valve or pressure release assembly.
40 When using SLOW COOK or SEAR/
SAUTÉ settings, ALWAYS keep the
pressure lid closed and the pressure
release valve in the VENT position.
If the lid is closed and the pressure
release valve is in the SEAL position,
an audible alarm will sound. “VENT”
error code will appear on LED display
to signal the need to turn the pressure
release valve to the VENT position.
41 When using the PRESSURE COOK
setting, ALWAYS keep the pressure
lid locked and the pressure release
valve turned anticlockwise to the
SEAL position.
42 If the lid will not turn to unlock, this
indicates the appliance is still under
pressure. Any pressure remaining
can be hazardous. Let unit naturally
release pressure or turn the Pressure
Release Valve slowly to the VENT

to avoid contact with the releasing
steam to avoid burns or injury. When
the steam is completely released, the
red float valve will be in the lower
position allowing the lid to be removed.
