USE
■ OPENING
• Using your thumb, pull back on the lid release button (E) and hold it in the
retracted position - Fig. 1.
• Holding the long handle of the pot (L) with one hand, turn the long handle of
the lid (F) with the other hand in an anti-clockwise direction until open - Fig. 2.
• Then lift the lid.
• Do not open the pressure cooker until the unit has cooled and all internal
pressure has been released. If the handles are dicult to push apart, this
indicates that the cooker is still pressurised - do not force it open. Any
pressure in the cooker can be hazardous.
■ CLOSING
• Place the lid horizontally onto the pot, aligning
the lid positioning marks G(a) and G(b).- Fig. 3
• Turn the lid in a clockwise direction until it
stops - Fig. 3 and you hear the button click as it
engages - Fig. 4.
If you are unable to turn the lid, ensure that the
opening button (E) is properly retracted.
■ MINIMUM FILL LEVEL
• Always put at least 25 cl/ 250 ml (2 cups) of liquid in
the pressure cooker when in use
For steam cooking*:
• The pot must contain at least 75 cl/ 750 ml (6 cups) of
water.
• Place the basket* (J) on the trivet* (K) provided for this
purpose - Fig. 5.
■ MAXIMUM FILL LEVEL
• Never fill your pressure cooker to more than two-thirds full
(mark MAX 2 for maximum filling).
For certain foods:
• For foodstus that expand and/or foam during cooking,
such as rice, pulses, dehydrated vegetables, stewed fruit,
pumpkin, courgettes, carrots, potatoes, fillets of fish, etc. Let
your pressure cooker cool down for a few minutes, and then
place in sink half-filled with cold tap water. Methodically
and gently shake the pressure cooker each time before
opening, after having checked that the pressure indicator
has gone down completely, to prevent bubbles of steam
from overflowing and burning you.
When the appliance
is closed but not in
operation, it is normal
for the lid to move
slightly relative to the
pot. This eect dis-
appears when the
product is pressurised.
Food placed in
the steamer
basket* must
not exceed the
MAX2 mark.
