Pressure cooker settings

For your convenience the pressure cooker has 10 pre-set functions with default cook times. Based on your recipe
you can choose any one of these settings. If you wish you may change the default times manually.
Every button has 2 settings and a corresponding pair of lights next to it. To select a setting simply press the button
twice and the corresponding light will indicate the selected setting.

NOTE: Sauté and Browning are the only two functions that operate without the lid. The pressure cooker will
take a few minutes to build up to the desired temperature, once the required temperature is reached, the time
will begin to count down. If the lid is locked and 'Sauté' and 'Browning' functions are selected, the unit will
beep and show an error message "E0" indicating that the lid needs to be removed.

Tips for Pressure Cooking

For additional flavor, sauté or brown the meat before cooking it in the pressure cooker. Meats will not brown
during the cooking process. Browning fatty meats will reduce the amount of fat and help preserve color while
adding rich flavor.
For uniform results, cut meat into pieces of uniform size to promote even cooking as large pieces of meat take
considerably longer to cook than smaller pieces
Because pressure cooker cooks in a closed, sealed pot there is less evaporation and therefore use less cooking
liquid than when cooking in a conventional pot.
