USING THE PRESSURE COOKER
PAG09
5. If steam is released via the lid edges, via the safety valve and/or via the expansion window,
remove the pressure cooker from the heat source, depressurise it and check:
- Whether the lid is properly closed and clean;
- Whether the functioning valve is clear;
- Whether the sealing ring is clean, properly positioned and shows any sign of deterioration;
- Whether the edge of the pressure cooker unit shows any signs of deterioration which prevent the
effective adjustment of the sealing ring.
6. Do not place objects on the pressure indicator and/or functioning valve whilst the pressure cooker
is working.
7. Use the heat stored in the thermal bottom and save energy by disconnecting the heat source
before the food cooking time has terminated.
UPON COMPLETION OF USE
1. Once the cooking time has elapsed, remove the pressure cooker from the heat source and de-
pressurise it, slowly turning the selector button to the position indicated in (FIG.07), to release the
steam.
Please note that you should be extremely careful to avoid any burns which may be caused by
the steam released. Use only bakelite accessories (fig.10) and if necessary use gloves or other mean
of protection
2. When there is no more steam escaping from the operating valve, you can open the pressure
cooker, moving the button from the close to the open position until you hear a click (FIG.08); remove
the lid, turning the handle anti-clockwise. (FIG.09).
Please note that you should not force the opening of the pressure cooker until the pressure indi-
cator is totally down, as this practice can put the user in danger and damage the cooker.
