Example:
It’s 4pm and you want to have a soup cooked and ready in 2 hours’ time for dinner at
6pm. You want to set the machine now so you are free to do other things.
The pre-set function (if unchanged) will cook for 30 minutes at HIGH pressure. Time to
gain pressure varies according to humidity and water temperature, but let’s assume it
takes 15 minutes to gain pressure. Therefore total time is 45 minutes. To have the soup
ready by 6pm, you will need to delay the start of your cooking by approximately 1 hour
and 15 minutes.
1. Press SOUP/BROTH
2. The Display Screen will ash “0:30”
3. Press the DELAY TIMER button and set for “1:15”
4. Press START/STOP
COOKING POT MARKINGS
Inside the removable Cooking Pot are markings to guide the ll
level of the Cooking Pot. The word MAX indicates the maximum ll
line.
The 1/3, 1/2, and 2/3 markings are handy guides to use in your
recipes.
CAUTION: Never load the Cooking Pot above the maximum
ingredient level line marked MAX on the inside of the Cooking Pot.
Foods that expand during cooking (e.g., rice, beans, dried vegetables, potatoes, carrots,
etc.) should never go above the 1/2 mark.
Note: The Multi-Cooker cannot pressure cook without liquid. Ensure a minimum of 8oz of
liquid is used inside the removable Cooking Pot.
PRESSURE COOKING
Pressure cooking is an ideal way to create quick, avorful meals. Pressure cooking is a
method of cooking food in liquid (water, stock, wine, etc.) in a sealed Cooking Pot. The
sealed Multi-Cooker retains steam and builds pressure, raising the temperature of the
liquid inside the pot above boiling point. The increased temperature of the liquid and the
steam results in reduced cooking times.
HIGH Pressure Setting is 6.5 - 10 PSI (45 - 70 kPa). It is suitable for a wide range of
foods.
LOW Pressure Setting is 3.3 - 6.5 PSI (23 - 45 kPa). It is more suited to delicate foods
like chicken llet, sh and some vegetables.
KEEP WARM Setting: When cooking time is completed, the Multi-Cooker automatically
switches to the KEEP WARM setting to prevent overcooking and to keep your cooked
food warm until serving - perfect for busy families, those on the run and those who need
exible meal times. This setting is not hot enough to cook and should only be used to
keep warm, cooked food for serving.
Ideal Meals to Pressure Cook: Soups, stocks, casseroles, sauces (e.g., pasta sauces),
meat, rice, rm vegetables (beetroot, potatoes) and desserts (e.g., pudding).
Capacity: Never ll the Cooking Pot above the MAX line. Foods that expand during
cooking should never go above the 1/2 mark. The Multi-Cooker cannot pressure cook
without liquid. Ensure a minimum of 8oz of liquid is used inside the removable Cooking
Pot.
CAUTION: Never use the Quick Pressure Release Method when cooking foods high in
liquid content, such as casseroles, stocks and soups. See RELEASING PRESSURE
instructions on pages 10-11.
