If you have cooked meat with the skin on which is swollen after cooking, do not pierce it but let it
go down. Otherwise you might burn yourself.
You should not pressure-cook foods which tend to cause foaming, such as apple puree, rhubarb,
spaghetti, rolled oats or other types of cereals. As these foods can be swirled upwards during
cooking, there is a risk of the cooker valve becoming blocked.
If the contents are mushy, the pressure cooker must be agitated gently before opening it.
During cooking, bursts of steam will be given off vertically from the centre of the heavy valve.
Please take care thet you do not come into contact with this hot steam.
When the pressure cooker is under pressure, force must never be used in an attempt to open it.
The pressure cooker must be allowed to cool down before it is opened. Steam pressure must be
completely released, otherwise it will not be possible to open the cooker. Do not undertake any
modifications to the safety devices; otherwise there is a risk of scalding. When releasing the steam,
keep hands, head and body out of the way of the steam.
You should only use original accessories and spare parts or lids and pans as designed for these
pressure cookers.
Pressure cookers or accessories which are deformed or damaged in any way should not be used
in any circumstances.
If repairs are necessary at any time, please contact our Customer Service Dpt.
