Before First Use
As received, your pressure cooker will be fully assembled. Fol-
lowing the instructions below, disassemble the unit so you can
thoroughly clean it, remove any manufacturing lubricants, and
become familiar with the various parts before initial use.
1. Remove cover. Grasp textured portion of cover handle and
rotate cover counterclockwise until the INSTALL/REMOVE
vertical mark (Fig. B) is within the
mark on the cooker
body. Then lift the cover straight up off the cooker body.
Invert the cover and place it on the counter. Using the grip
pin, pull the sealing ring plate out from the cover (Fig. C).
Remove the sealing ring from the sealing ring plate.
With the sealing ring plate detached from the cover, you have
access to the vent filter and vent pipe.
Next, remove the vent filter for cleaning. Note: Although
you will not need to remove the filter after every use, you
should remove it periodically for cleaning.
With the inverted cover on the counter, rest a table knife on
the rim of the cover and insert the tip into one of the filter
slots; lift the filter up (Fig. D).
2. Lift the cooking rack and removable cooking pot out of the
cooker body.
3. Remove all packaging materials. Then clean the cooker cover
with a damp, soapy cloth. Do NOT immerse the cooker
cover in water.
Wash the sealing ring plate, sealing ring, vent filter, cooking
rack, and removable cooking pot in warm, soapy water. Rinse
and dry thoroughly.
CAUTION! Never pour water into the cooker body or
immerse it or the power cord in water. Always be sure the
cooking pot is COMPLETELY DRY before placing it back
in the cooker body.
4. After cleaning, reassemble the cover. When reattaching the
vent filter, be sure the filter is placed over all 3 clips (Fig E,
page 4). Then push it in place. You will hear a snap when it
is in the proper position. It should fit tightly. Next, reattach
the sealing ring to the plate and then the sealing ring plate
to the cover.
IMPORTANT: When properly positioned, the grip pin will
be facing you. Grasp the grip pin (Fig C) and use it to push
the plate back in place. Check that the grommet is securely
positioned over the cover post.
