Place the lid on the pan as shown.
The positioning triangle on the lid must be aligned with the triangle on the pan handle.
Turn the lid in a clockwise direction until the
handle of the lid is over the handle of the pan.
Check: The pressure cooker is correctly closed if the handle on the lid is positioned
directly over the handle on the pan.
9. Cooking under pressure
Only hold the hot pressure cooker by its grips or handles. Always
handle the pressure cooker with extreme care, especially if it is filled
with hot liquid. If your pan has metallic handles, the use of oven
gloves may be necessary.
To avoid damage to the appliance, never allow the pressure
cooker to boil dry.
Never leave an empty pressure cooker on a hot hob.
This cooker is not suitable for the preparation of apple compote,
cranberries, porridge (oat flakes), barley or other cereals (except those
listed section 18), peas, pasta, macaroni or rhubarb. These foods
tend to foam and froth and could block the valve.
In the case of problems during cooking: remove the pressure cooker
from the heat source and allow it to cool.
Place the properly closed cooker on a heat source commensurate with the size of the pres-
sure cooker base. See underside of cooker base for correct size (see section 14). Next turn
the heat source up to full power.
As food begins to boil, any air present in the pressure cooker firstly escapes through the
valve. The valve cap will then move up. Now, the pressure indicator stem rises with increa-
sing pressure inside the pressure cooker. Please observe: after a short while the first red
(pressure indication) line will become visible indicating that cooking level 1 has been rea-
ched.
The cooking time begins (see the cooking time table in section 18)
once the desired cooking level has been reached.
