NOTICE
If a large amount of steam escapes from the pressure cooker at the beginning of the cooking process,
the pressure cooker has not been correctly closed. Incorrect closing is usually due to the following:
a) The lid is attached incorrectly - close the pressure cooker again.
b) The pressure regulator is set to the steam release position - set it to the low or high pressure-cooking
position.
c) The silicone seal is incorrectly positioned in the lid - check its position.
d) The silicone seal is faulty - replace it with a new original Tescoma seal.
If no steam escapes from the pressure cooker at the beginning of the cooking process, check whether
the pressure regulator is set to the position between low and high pressure. If yes, set it to the operating
position for low or high pressure.
Cooking termination, steam release and opening of the pressure cooker
ALWAYS RELEASE STEAM ONLY AFTER REMOVING THE PRESSURE COOKER FROM THE HEAT.
After the time required for cooking your meal elapses, remove the pressure cooker from the heat source
even if the latter has already been switched off .
Set the pressure cooker aside for a while to allow the temperature and pressure in the pressure cooker to
drop suffi ciently.
Then set the pressure regulator to the steam release position and release all steam from the pressure
cooker. (P)
The GREEN CONTROL pressure indicator will slip downwards into the handle of the lid while releasing
steam. The lock against accidental opening will slip downwards after the steam has been entirely released
and the pressure has dropped. The pressure cooker can now be opened.
If the GREEN CONTROL pressure indicator and the lock against accidental opening remain in the upper
position after releasing steam, this means that there is still pressure in the vessel. Never attempt to open
the pressure cooker in this situation. Instead, put the pressure cooker into the sink and cool the lid with
a small amount of slowly running cold water until the pressure indicator and the safety cut-out slip into
position.
NEVER COOL THE PRESSURE COOKER ABRUPTLY UNDER RUNNING WATER, DO NOT LET WATER RUN DOWN
THE PLASTIC PARTS AND DO NOT IMMERSE THE ENTIRE PRESSURE COOKER IN WATER.
SAFETY CUT-OUTS
Operating valve
The operating valve controls the high and low pressure, continuously releases excess steam and releases all
steam from the pressure cooker at the end of cooking.
Safety valve
The safety valve operates as a cut-out activated when the operating valve becomes clogged. Immediately
remove the pressure cooker from the heat source if steam ceases to escape from the operating valve and
starts to escape intensely from the safety valve during the cooking process. After the pressure cooker cools
down, open it and clean the operating valve.
