When cooking is finished, the unit will beep 5 times. Let the pressure
drop on its own (also called the natural release method), or release
the pressure immediately by pressing the steam release button in
short bursts or by sliding the steam release ring to the Open/Release
position until the pressure is reduced (both of these methods are
called the quick release method).
Note: Steam will escape with more strength when using the steam
release button. Steam will be released completely and with less
power when sliding the release ring to the Open/Release position.
CAUTION! When turning the steam release ring or pushing the steam
release button to release the pressure, hot steam/liquid will escape. Risk
of scalding! USE KITCHEN GLOVES OR OVEN MITTS! Do not place hands,
face or skin over the pressure outlet.
NOTE: When the cooking cycle is complete, the pressure cooker will
automatically switch to Keep Warm for 24 hours. Turn off the cooking or
keep warm function by pressing the “Start/Keep Warm/Cancel” button.
This button can be pressed at any time during the cooking cycle, or
when the unit is in Keep Warm mode.
During a cooking cycle, to enter the keep warm mode, press the
“Start/Keep Warm/Cancel” button twice.
WARNING: Hot steam/liquid will be ejected. Keep hands and face
away from steam vents, use pot holders when removing the inner pot
or touching any hot items. And never force the lid open. The lid will
only open once the pressure is released. Remove the lid by lifting it
away from you to avoid being burned by the steam.
To take the inner pot out, using oven mitts or kitchen gloves, and lift
up to remove.
Pressure levels
The pressure cooker has two pressure settings: high and low. Most
recipes can be cooked on high pressure. Use the low pressure setting to
cook delicate ingredients such as fruits, leafy greens, fish, or eggs.
