•
Never leave pressure cooker unattended
during use.
•
Keep out of reach of children and household pets.
•
Always position the pressure cooker so that
steam does not escape in the direction of any
people in the room. For “open-plan kitchens”
be particularly aware of
Risk of burns during
quick release of steam
There is a risk of burns caused by hot steam or
cooked food when steam is released quickly
by pulling back the slider
12
or under running
water.
•
Give the pressure cooker a shake before
opening.
•
Immersing the pressure cooker in water is
prohibited.
•
Always keep hands, head and body out of the
danger area - above the lid
6
and the side
safety slot
10
on the rim of the lid.
Risk of burns caused by bubble
formation (delay in boiling)
Hot cooked food can form bubbles and sud-
denly spray out when the cooled pressure
cooker is opened. Hot liquid can spray out when
piercing meat with skin. This can lead to burns
and / or scalding.
•
Shake the pressure cooker before opening.
•
Do not immediately pierce hot meat that is
cooked with skin (e.g. cow tongue), let it cool
down first.
Risk of burns caused
by leaking food
When the pressure cooker is overfilled, hot food
can leak out of the safety valve
7
, pressure
regulation device
15
or the side safety slot
10
and cause burns.
•
Never overfill the pressure cooker.
•
Fill the pressure cooker to a maximum of 2/3
(see inner marking) of its nominal capacity.
•
Fill the pressure cooker to a maximum of 1/2
its nominal capacity if puréed, viscous or high
foaming foods, such as soups, legumes, stews,
broths, offal or pasta are being cooked.
•
Pre-cook foods beforehand in an open pot,
stir and skim off foam if necessary.
Risk of burns from hot pot/lid
The pressure cooker becomes very hot during
cooking. The handles can also become very hot
from open flames on gas stoves. Touching these
can cause burns.
•
Never touch the hot outer surface of the
pressure cooker.
•
Only take hold of the pot
1
/ lid
6
by the
plastic handles.
•
Use gloves and/or hand protection (e.g. pot
holders).
•
Only remove inserts and trivets using aids, e.g.
pot holders.
•
Place the hot pressure cooker on heat-resist-
ant surface only.
ATTENTION
Damage caused by too
little or lack of liquid
Never turn the pressure cooker on without liq-
uid or switch to the highest setting unattended
as this can cause overheating and damage.
•
Only use the pressure cooker with sufficient
liquid (minimum ¼ l water, stock, sauce, etc.).
•
Check that there is sufficient liquid when
cooking viscous foods.
•
If there is insufficient or no liquid, turn the
stove off immediately and do not move the
pressure cooker until it has cooled down
completely.
•
Never leave the pressure cooker unattended.
2.6| CORRECT CLEANING
Clean the pressure cooker after each use!
CAUTION
Risk of burns from damage
caused when cleaning
Do not use brushes, abrasive cleaners or chem-
icals when cleaning the safety devices as this
can damage them, leading to risk of burns from
escaping steam.
•
Observe the cleaning and care instructions.
•
Dry the cookware well after cleaning.
