Meaning of cooking levels:
Cooking level 1
Gentle cooking at a low
cooking pressure (0.4 bar).
Cooking level 1 is reached as soon as the first
red line on the pressure indicator stem is visible.
The first red line should always be visible during
the entire cooking time.
Cooking level 2
Rapid cooking at a high cooking pressure (0.8 bar).
Cooking level 2 is reached when both red lines on
the pressure indicator stem are visible. The second
red line should always be visible during the entire
cooking time.
To maintain the desired cooking level, the amount of heat applied to the pressure cooker
needs to be reduced accordingly.
A hissing sound accompanied by the escape of steam means that the maximum operating
pressure of 1.2 bar has been reached. Reduce the heat and/or remove the pressure cooker
from hob for a short time until the second red line is just visible.
Vegetables are cooked especially gently in the steamer insert or on
the trivet. Colour, flavour, vitamins and nutrients are retained.

After cooking mash-type foods (like grains or pulses) or foods with a
high fat content, shake the cooker gently before opening the lid.
This will prevent the contents spitting when the lid is opened.
The pressure cooker can only be opened when there is no pressure inside it. This is a safe-
ty feature. Reduce the pressure in one of the following ways:
