BEFORE AND
DURING
COOKING
Ensure close supervision if you are using the pressure cooker near
children.
The steam is very hot when it leaves the operating valve. Be
careful of jets of steam.
Your device cooks using pressure. Improper use may result in
scalding injuries. Make sure the pressure cooker is properly closed
before use. (See "Closing" section).
During cooking, check that the valve murmurs regularly. If there
is not enough steam being released, release the pressure and
open the lid then check that there is sufficient liquid, and check
that the steam release duct is not blocked. If there is still not
enough steam being released, increase the heat source slightly.
Do not cook food that could block the ducts of the safety
components:
- blueberries, cranberries
- pearl barley, spelt, millet
- oat flakes
- split peas
- noodles, macaroni, spaghetti
- rhubarb
- blackcurrants, redcurrants
When cooking large pieces of meat and food with a surface skin
layer (whole sausages, tongue, poultry, etc.) : we recommend that
you prick the skin using a knife or fork before cooking. During
cooking, boiling liquid could become trapped under the skin and
create spatters.
Never use your pressure cooker to cook milk-based recipes (such
as rice pudding, semolina pudding...).
Never use coarse salt in your pressure cooker, only use fine salt
at the end of cooking. That way you will avoid the appearance
of "pitting", which could damage the base of your pressure
cooker.
Never use your pressure cooker to fry under pressure using oil.
Do not leave your pressure cooker unsupervised when heating oil
or fats. Continuing to heat a smoking oil will degrade it and may
increase the temperature of the oil enough for flames to appear.
Do not use your pressure cooker for any other purpose than the
one it is meant for.
Do not put your pressure cooker in a hot oven.
Never use aluminium foil unsecured on a container in your
pressure cooker. Always secure with string.
Never use cling film in your pressure cooker.
Alcohol vapours are flammable. Bring to the boil for
approximately 2 minutes before putting the lid on. Check your
pressure cooker on a regular basis when cooking alcohol-based
recipes.
Only use the compatible heat source(s) listed in the user guide.
