IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using pressure cookers, basic
safety precautions should always be
followed:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use
handles or knobs.
3. Close supervision is necessary
when the pressure cooker is
used near children.
4. Do not place the pressure
cooker in a heated oven.
5. Extreme caution must be used
when moving a pressure cooker
containing hot liquids.
6. Do not use pressure cooker for
other than intended use.
7. This appliance cooks under
pressure. Improper use may
result in scalding injury. Make
certain unit is properly closed
before operating. See Operating
Instructions.
8. Do not fill the unit over two thirds
full. When cooking foods that
expand during cooking such as
rice or dried vegetables, do not
fill the unit over one half full.
Over filling may cause a risk of
clogging the vent pipe and
developing excess pressure.
See Food Preparation
Instructions.
9. Be aware that certain foods,
such as applesauce,
cranberries, pearl barley,

oatmeal or other cereals, split
peas, noodles, macaroni,
rhubarb, or spaghetti can foam,
froth, and sputter, and clog the
pressure release device (steam
vent). These foods should not be
cooked in a pressure cooker.
10. Always check the pressure
release devices for clogging
before use.
11. Do not open the pressure
cooker until the unit has cooled
and all internal pressure has
been released. If the handles
are difficult to push apart, this
indicates that the cooker is still
pressurized - do not force it
open. Remove the pressure
regulator and run cold water
over the cooker to cool it to
reduce the internal pressure.
Any pressure in the cooker can
be hazardous. See Operating
Instructions.
12. Do not use this pressure cooker
for pressure frying with oil.
13. When the normal operating
pressure is reached, turn the
heat down so all the liquid,
which creates the steam, does
not evaporate.
