COOKING WITH YOUR PROGRAMMABLE
ELECTRIC PRESSURE COOKER
WARMING
This MODE reheats or keeps cooked food warm for an indefinite period of
time. This program can either be used on its own or in conjunction with
COOK MODE: STEAM or PRESSURE MODE: HIGH or LOW to keep food
warm after cooking.
1. Place cooked food in the Removable Cooking Pot. Press KEEP WARM
Button. The red KEEP WARM Indicator Light will be lit. To start program,
press START/STOP Button. The green START Indicator Light will
illuminate and the red KEEP WARM Indicator Light will flash.
2. If you would like to keep food warm after steaming or cooking with
pressure, select COOK MODE: STEAM or PRESSURE MODE: HIGH
or LOW. Set COOK TIME, then press the KEEP WARM Button. Press
the START/STOP Button to begin the cooking process. The red KEEP
WARM Indicator Light will flash as the appliance automatically goes
into the KEEP WARM MODE after cooking. To end program or to reset,
press and hold the START/STOP Button until it beeps and the red
STOP Indicator Light illuminates.
BROWNING
Braised foods often taste better when browned before cooking in
liquid. The CEPC660 Programmable Pressure Cooker has a built-in
BROWN MODE.
For best results, food should be patted dry with paper towels and cut into
small, uniform pieces. Brown or sauté food in small batches.
1. Place the Removable Cooking Pot into the Housing. Add the
appropriate amount of oil as called for in the recipe. With the Lid off,
press the COOK MODE Button for BROWN. The red Indicator Light
next to BROWN will be lit.
2. Press the START/STOP Button. The green START Indicator Light will
illuminate and the BROWN MODE red Indicator Light will begin to flash.
After approximately one minute of preheating, add food and
begin browning.
WARNING: Extreme caution should be used when browning with hot
oil. Keep hands and face away from the Cooking Pot especially
when adding new ingredients, as hot oil may spatter.
3. During the BROWN MODE, the Pressure Cooker will beep
3 times every 10 minutes as a warning that this is a high temperature
setting.
4. There is no time setting for the BROWN MODE. When desired
browning is complete, press the START/STOP Button until it beeps
and the red STOP Indicator Light illuminates.
WARNING: Do not leave the Pressure Cooker unattended while
browning foods.
