SAFETY DEVICES
The OLYMPIC cooker includes the following systems to prevent the pressure from going
over the safety limits:
Regulation valve:
When the desired pressure is reached (level 1 or 2), the valve discharges the excess steam,
preventing the pressure from increasing.
Safety valve:
When the pressure exceeds the evacuation capacity of the pressure adjustment valve, the
safety valve opens to discharge the steam and decrease the pressure
Safety opening:
When one the two aforesaid devices is blocked, the safety opening on the lid allows the
joint to expand and thus discharge excess steam. In this case, our Technical Assistance
Service must check the safety systems.
Opening safety:
The blocking system on the Olympic model lid prevents the opening of the lid when there
is pressure inside the cooker. You can only open the cooker when the pressure has fallen
to zero and it is fully safe to open the cooker.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Before cooking
Ensure that the adjustment valve opening is clean and that the safety valve is free. This
verification can be carried out by exerting pressure on the piston of the safety valve. If the
piston is forced inside during the said verification, the cooker will be operating correctly.
Make sure that the opening lock system is correctly fasted before use.
The cooker must only be filled up to 2/3 of its capacity. A minimum of 1/4l of liquid is
required to produce steam. When cooking food that produces foam, never fill the cooker
above half of its capacity. Never fill the cooker up to the top.
