2 INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREPARATION OF FOOD:

2.1 Filling

Never ll the cooker to more than 2/3 of its capacity.

The minimum amount of liquid necessary for the cooker to be pressurized is 1/4 liter.

If you have to cook vegetables which may foam, do not ll the cooker to more than 1/3 of

its capacity, to avoid any possible blocking of the safety valve. We recommend starting

with heat source at its maximum, so that the cooker can reach the correct pressure as

quickly as possible.

If you cook with gas, the ame must be regulated so that it does not pass round the sides

of the cooker.

If you cook with electricity, glass-ceramic, or induction, the hob should, if possible, be

slightly smaller than the diameter of the bottom of the cooker.

2.2 Cooking each food at the indicated pressure

Select the pressure level indicated for each type of food to be cooked.

Place the cooker on the heat source and select High Pressure 2 o Low Pressure 1.

When steam starts to come out with sucient intensity through the upper part of the

handle, reduce the heat.

This is when the recommended cooking times begin.

2.3 Opening the cooker

Before opening the cooker, release the

pressure completely.

To do this, move the pressure selector

in this position . There will be a strong

flow of steam through the valve, which

will reduce as the interior pressure

dissipates.

To reduce the pressure more quickly,

you can cool the cooker by pouring a small stream of water on to the lid. When the seal

is worn out, rapid and violent decompression can occur, which means that this should

always be carried with the utmost caution.

Only when there is no pressure within cooker, can you proceed to open it in the manner

described above.

Opening it with pressure inside can cause injury.

When cooking purées, the contents of the cooker should be swilled before opening the

lid, to prevent spattering from air bubbles which may have remained inside.
