Manufacturer's Recommendations

To fully enjoy your new ZAVOR pressure cooker, please read carefully these
recommendations before you start using your pressure cooker, and follow them
accordingly:
1. Please make sure children do not have access to or reach the pressure cooker while
cooking.
2. Never use the pressure cooker with a worn or torn gasket. Inspect the gasket before
every use to make sure it is pliable and does not have any cracks or tears. If you need
to replace it, see the Care and Cleaning section of this manual for instructions.
3. To reduce the risk of burns or spills, the lid and pot handle should be positioned so
that it is turned inward towards the back of the stove, and does not extend over
adjacent surface units or overhang over the edge of the stove top.
4. While cooking with the ZAVOR pressure cooker, please make sure the safety vent
points towards the back of the stove and away from you. This will reduce the risk of
burns in the event the safety vent is triggered to release excess pressure.
5. It is very important that the pressure cooker is not filled over two thirds of its capacity
with food and liquid. If you're cooking grains or foods that expand during cooking, do
not fill the cooker more than half full. Too much steam might be produced if the unit
is too full with food and liquid.
6. Before cooking make sure that the gasket is in good condition and in place, and that
the operating valve is free of food particles that could clog it up. See the instructions
found in this manual for more detailed instructions.
7. Make sure the pressure cooker has been properly closed before cooking. The handles
should be aligned and the lid should glide easily back and forth. If the lid is not closed
and locked securely in place, the pressure cooker will not build pressure.
8. After releasing the pressure from the pressure cooker, open the lid towards the back
of your stove since there may be some steam still inside the cooker.
9. Caution: do not use the pressure cooker on an outdoor LP gas burner or commercial
ranges. This pressure cooker is for household use ONLY.
10. Pressure cookers are not to be used for medical purposes, such as sterilizers, as
pressure cookers are not designed to reach the temperatures necessary for complete
sterilization.
11. Do not allow anyone who is not familiar with the instructions to use the cooker.
