CAREFUL
Escaping steam!
Prevent scalding caused by unforeseen vapour
formation during filling!
• Allow the device to cool down after full pressure
discharge for approx. 5 minutes.
• Do not lean over the filling opening of the pressure
vessel during filling.
2. Slowly open the pressure vessel screw cap as residual steam
can escape laterally from the pressure vessel screw cap
3. Insert the sieve (Figure 6.2.2) from the scope of delivery into
the collection tray.
