Before cooking
• Before each use of the pressure cooker, always remove the
valve (A) (Refer to the "Using the operating valve" heading)
and visually check that the operating valve seat (B) is not
blocked. If necessary, clean it with a toothpick
• Check that the safety valve (C) can move: Refer to the
"Cleaning and maintenance" heading.
• Fit the operating valve (A) and select the position
.
• Always make sure that the pressure cooker is properly clo-
sed before starting to heat it. The opening button (E) must
be in the
position.
• Place the pressure cooker on a heat source set to maxi-
mum power.

• Once the 20 minutes are up, turn off the heat.
• Turn the operating valve (A) to position
• Once the pressure indicator (D) drops back: your pressure coo-
ker is no longer under pressure.
• Open the pressure cooker.
• Rinse the pressure cooker with water and dry it.
• Note: The presence of stains on the inside of the pressure
cooker base has no effect on the quality of the metal. This
is simply a scale deposit. To remove these deposits, you
can use a scouring pad and some diluted vinegar.
• Once the operating valve (A) starts to continually release
steam and a regular hissing sound can be heard, cooking has
started. Reduce the heat setting.
• Set a timer for the cooking time stated in your recipe.
• Once the cooking time is up, turn off the heat.
