OPERATING

INSTRUCTIONS

With the unit on and the LED displayed,

press the MENU button to select the

desired cooking function. The function

light will flash.

After Selecting Browning, Sauté,

or Simmer

Press START, and unit will begin to heat

up. When browning, sautéing or

simmering is complete, press START/

CANCEL to cancel and cover the cooker

as directed. Press MENU again and

select Low or High Pressure function.

After Selecting Low or High Pressure

Press TIME to select number of minutes

needed for pressure cooking. Time

increases in 1-minute increments up to

40 minutes. Time increases in 5-minute

increments from 40 to 99 minutes.

Once cooking time is programmed, press

START/CANCEL to start the cooking

process. As the unit heats up and

pressure builds, the red float will rise. The

amount of liquid and other ingredients in

the pressure cooker determines the

length of time needed for full pressure

to build – generally 5 to 40 minutes,

depending on the recipe. (A red blinking

dot on lower-right hand corner of LED

indicates the unit is on and heating up.)

Note: When full pressure is reached,

red light in the lower right-hand

corner of the LED will stop flashing

and remain lit. Pressure cooking will

begin, and the timer will start to

count down.

The raised red float indicates you are

cooking under pressure. The lid is

double-locked and cannot be opened.

YOU SHOULD NEVER ATTEMPT TO

OPEN THE LID WHILE PRESSURE

COOKING.

Automatic Keep Warm Feature

When LED display reaches

, the

pressure cooker automatically shifts to

Keep Warm temperature. The Keep Warm

light will turn on and unit will beep to

indicate cooking is complete.

NOTE: The Keep Warm setting should not

be used for more than 12 hours. The

quality or texture of the food will begin to

change after 1 hour on Keep Warm. In the

Keep Warm setting, a little condensation

in the upper ring is normal.

To Reset or Cancel

Users can reset the function or cancel the

timing setup anytime by pressing the

START/CANCEL button.

To Remove Lid

When pressure cooking cycle is finished,

the unit will automatically switch to the

Keep Warm setting. At this point you may

choose to release pressure in one

of three ways – Natural Pressure Release,

Quick Pressure Release, or a combination

of both. The choice will be dictated by

the particular food being cooked and

indications in the recipe. If adapting your

own recipe for pressure cooking, find a

similar recipe in our recipe booklet and

use that as a guide.

1. Natural Pressure Release – Following

pressure cooking, allow the unit to

remain on Keep Warm. The pressure

will begin to drop – time for pressure

to drop will depend on the amount of

liquid in the pressure cooker and the

length of time that pressure was

maintained. Natural Pressure Release

will take from 12 to 30 minutes.

During this time cooking continues,

so it is recommended for certain cuts

of meats and some desserts. When

pressure is fully released, the float

(pressure indicator) will drop and the

lid will unlock to open.

2. Quick Pressure Release – Following

pressure cooking you will hear a

series of beeps indicating the

process is finished. Turn off and pull

the handle of the pressure limit valve

forward (see figures 6 and 6a). Do not

touch with your hand. Use tongs or

another tool.
