4.Cleaning and Maintenance
4.1 Cleaning the pressure cooker's body
Pressure cooker's body can be cleaned in a dishwasher or by hand just like other
stainless steel cookers. Please do not use metal brushes, abrasive cleaners or
bleachers because they can be harmful to the surface. Fill the pressure cooker with
lemon juice (mix half a lemon juice with 2 glasses of water) to remove stubborn dirt and
fading. Let the mixture pressure boil for 5 minutes. Remove the pressure cooker from
the stove and let it cool. You can rinse your pressure cooker with hot water now. The lid
should only be cleaned with hot water and detergent. DO NOT WASH THE LID IN A
DISHWASHER. Do not use harsh or abrasive materials to clean.
Attention: Do not wash the lid and the silicone seal in the dishwasher. Put the lid on
the cooker upside down when storing the pressure cooker in a cabinet. The pressure
cooker can only be stored without food in it. It should be clean and dry when stored.
4.2 Cleaning the cooking valve
