Operating Instructions

6. MULTIGRAIN

• PRE-PROGRAMMED TIMES: Less = 20 minutes, Normal = 40 minutes, More = 1 hour

• MAX TIME: 4 hours

• TO USE:

a. Put the grains into the cooking pot. Fill with 1 ½ times the amount of water. Do not ﬁll

more than 1/2.

b. Secure the lid and ensure the pressure regulator knob is set to the "Sealing" position.

c. Press the MULTIGRAIN button. Use the - and + buttons to adjust the cooking time,

OR press the MULTIGRAIN button again to select a preset cooking time. The mode

will change from “Normal” to “More” or “Less.” (Normal, More and Less refer to preset

cooking times. All can be adjusted further using the - and + buttons.)

d. At this point, the pressure may also be adjusted by pressing the PRESSURE LEVEL

button. Less, Low Pressure & Normal Mode and High Pressure & More Mode may be

selected. (Low Pressure & Normal Mode are designed to cook 9 minutes longer than

High Pressure & More Mode. Results will be very similar.) Press START.*

e. Once the START button is selected, the Multi Cooker will beep three times and the

word “On” will display on the screen. The selected cooking mode (Less, Normal or

More) will also display on the screen along with the cooking cycle indicator. The

cooking cycle indicator will display throughout the entire cooking process with the

words “Preheating,” “Cooking,” or “Keep Warm” displayed below it.

NOTE: The amount of preheating time varies based on the amount of ingredients in

the cooking pot. A large amount of ingredients will take longer to come to pressure

than a small amount. This process may be sped up if you start the function before

securing the lid. It may also be sped up if you Sauté some of the ingredients before

adding the liquid.

f. Right before the Multi Cooker comes to pressure, it will hiss slightly and steam will

start to escape from the pressure regulator knob.

g. Once it reaches full pressure, the ﬂoating valve will pop up and remain lifted the entire

time the Multi Cooker is at full pressure. The cooking cycle indicator will switch from

“Preheating” to “Cooking,” and the Multi Cooker will start to count down.

The lid will be locked during this time. As a safety precaution, it may not be opened.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPEN THE LID WHILE THE FLOATING VALVE IS LIFTED!

h. When the programmed time fully counts down, the Multi Cooker will beep 10 times

and then switch to the Keep Warm function. While in the Keep Warm function, the

Multi Cooker will count up.

i. At this point, the pressure may be released naturally or by using the quick release

method. The natural release method is recommended for larger, heartier grains like

wheat berries. The quick release method is recommended for smaller grains that are

easy to overcook like quinoa.

j. Always press CANCEL when you are done cooking to turn the Multi Cooker OFF.

*Before pressing START, the DELAY TIMER may be set using the instructions on page 26.
