IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using your Pressure Cooker basic safety precautions should always be
observed, including the following:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
For Household Use Only
REV 06/06A
1. Read all instructions before using your
Pressure Cooker.
2. To protect against fire, electric shock
and injury to persons, do not immerse
cord, plugs, or the pressure cooker
housing in water or other liquid.
3. Do not touch hot surfaces. Always
use handles or knobs.
4. Close supervision is necessary when
any appliance is used by or near
children.
5. Do not let cord hang over edge of
table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a
damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance malfunctions or has been
dropped or damaged in any manner.
Return appliance to EURO-PRO
Operating LLC for examination, repair
or adjustment.
7. The use of accessory attachments not
recommended by the appliance
manufacturer may result in fire, electric
shock or injury to persons.
8. Do not place on or near a hot gas or
electric burner or in a heated oven.
9. To avoid possible steam damage,
place pressure cooker away from walls
or cabinets during use.
10. Unplug from outlet when not in use and
before cleaning. Allow the appliance to
cool before putting on or taking off
parts, and before cleaning.
11. To disconnect, press the “Cancel”
button, then remove the plug from
electrical outlet. Always hold the plug,
and never pull the cord.
12. Extreme caution must be used when
moving an appliance containing hot oil
or other hot liquids.
13. Oversized foods, metal foil packages,
or utensils must not be inserted in the
appliance, as they may involve a risk of
fire or electric shock.
14. This appliance cooks under pressure.
Improper use may result in scalding
injury. Make certain unit is properly
closed before operating. See
“Operating Instructions”.
15. A fire may occur if the appliance is
covered or touching flammable
material, including curtains, draperies,
walls and the like when in operation.
16. Do not attempt to dislodge food when
appliance is plugged in.
17. Always check the pressure release
devices for clogging before use.
18. Do not fill the unit over 2/3 full.
When cooking foods that expand
during cooking such as rice or dried
vegetables, do not fill the unit over 1/2
full. See “Tips for Cooking with your
Pressure Cooker”.
19. Do not cook foods such as
applesauce, cranberries, pearl barley,
oatmeal or other cereals, split peas,
noodles, macaroni, rhubarb, or
spaghetti. These foods tend to foam,
froth and sputter, and may block the
steam release valve.
20. Do not attempt to open cover until
internal pressure has been reduced.
21. Do not use this pressure cooker for
pressure frying with oil or shortening.
22. Never operate the pressure cooker
without any liquid inside. Do not allow
the pressure cooker to boil dry.
23. Always wear protective, insulated oven
mitts when opening the pressure
release valve.
24. Do not use this appliance outdoors.
25. Do not use this appliance for other
than intended use.
26. Keep hands and face away from steam
release valve when releasing pressure.
27. Caution: To reduce the risk of electric
shock, cook only in the removable
cooking pot. Never place anything into
the housing.
28. Do not use without the removable
cooking pot in place.
29. Do not cover the pressure release
valve with anything or lock it in place
as an explosion may occur.
30. Use extreme caution when removing
the cover after cooking. Serious burns
can result from steam inside. Always
lift and tilt the cover away from you and
allow water to drip into the unit.
31. Never remove the cover while the
pressure cooker is in operation.
32. Let the pressure cooker cool before
removing the cover.
33. Do not use with foods that can
overcook easily and quickly.
WARNING: Danger of Scalding. Please use caution when using the
pressure cooker. The steam emitted from this appliance is very hot.

This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric
shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
1. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord that
has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on
the appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord should be equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.
OR
2. Do not use an extension cord. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the appliance.
Please Note:
1. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.
3. If a long cord or extension cord is used, (1) the marked electrical rating of the
cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of
the appliance, (2) the extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and (3)
the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or
tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over accidentally.
Grounding Instructions
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult with a
qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to
whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the appliance - if it will not fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has
a grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug illustrated
at right. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet
having the same configuration as the plug. No adaptor should
be used with this appliance.
