The pressure cooker may only be placed on the appropiate hob for its sizes. When using full power
to heat it, always keep it under observation. Too high a gas flame can for example damage the
handles.
Never touch the outside of the pressure cooker during the cooking procedure, as you may burn
yourself. If the pressure cooker is still hot, it must only be touched or moved with great care, and
by handles on the pressure cooker itself, and not that on the lid.
This pressure cooker must never be used without liquid or it may be damaged.

The pressure cooker must never be filled more than 2/3-full, or when cooking food which expands
or bubbles strongly (e.g.rice or pulses) not more than half-full. These foods should first be brought
to the boil in the uncovered pressure cooker and then skimmed before the lid is closed.
Under pressure, the pressure cooker must never be used for roasting or frying using fat or oil.
When preparing e.g. sausages with an artificial skin, this must first be pierced. If the skin is not
pierced, it will expand under pressure and may burst. Any splashes thus occasioned may cause
burns.
