Maintenance & Cleaning Instructions

9. Store the pressure cooker with the

cover upside down over the main

housing. DO NOT store with the

cover closed to avoid compressing

the sealing gasket for long periods

of time.

6. Use a sponge or a non-metallic soft

brush to clean the diffuser.

7. The pressure release valve does

not have to be cleaned after each

use unless it has become clogged.

8. The sealant washer may need to be

cleaned. Remove it from the safety

floating valve and clean with warm,

soapy water. To replace, hold the

safety float valve with your finger

and push it in. (Fig. 12)

Operating Instructions

Note: Since overcooked food cannot be

corrected, it is almost better to err on the

undercooked side by cooking an unfamiliar

food for a shorter period of time than you

may think necessary.

Using the “Keep Warm” Feature

This function can keep cooked foods warm

for up to 24 hours. The pressure cooker

will go into “Standby” mode for one minute

and then the “Keep Warm” mode will

automatically be engaged after the

cooking process has been completed.

The “Keep Warm” light will illuminate

when this feature is engaged. (Fig. 10)

Tips for Cooking in Your New Pressure Cooker

Meats & Poultry

When adapting recipes for braised

meats, allow 20 minutes cooking time

per pound of meat. Use 1 cup liquid for

the first pound and 1/2 cup for each

additional pound.

For steam-roasting poultry and meats,

brown first in oil for better appearance.

Rice

When cooking rice and grains, add 1

Tbs. butter or oil per cup to reduce

foaming and clogging the pressure

valve.

Since rice doubles in size when

cooked, be sure to use only half as

much uncooked rice as the cooker’s

capacity allows. For example, never

cook more than 1 3/4 cups raw rice in

the 3 1/2 qt. pressure pan and no more

than 4 cups raw rice in the 8 qt.

pressure pan.

Because rice will be slightly sticky

when cooked in a pressure cooker, it is

best to use a slow release method. For

example, allow cooling naturally or else

slowly releasing pressure one level at a

time.

To prevent burning, use a heat diffuser

if available, or bring to pressure on a

medium-high heat setting.

Beans

Although it is not necessary to pre-soak

beans for pressure-cooking, there are

some advantages. Since the gas-

inducing properties of beans are water

soluble, soaking reduces their effects.

Always drain the soaking water from

the beans and cook with fresh water.

Soaking also cuts down the cooking

time and keeps the bean skins from

separating from the flesh.

If you don’t have time to soak the

beans overnight, use the Hot Soaking

Method: Use 5 cups water for every 8

oz. dried beans, pressure cook on low

pressure for 3 minutes, remove from

heat source and let stand 1-4 hours.

Always use at least 2 Tsp. of oil when

cooking beans to reduce sputtering.

Always use the natural or slow release

method to reduce pressure.

Clean lid and vents thoroughly after

cooking rice or beans.

Desserts

Many desserts can be pressure-

cooked, especially those that use

eggs/and or are cooked over a hot

water bath, such as custards, bread

puddings and cheesecakes.

Use a dish that easily fits inside

pressure cooker allowing 1 inch of

space around the edge. The larger

pressure cooker works best for this.

Seal the dish completely with foil to

keep liquid from seeping into the

dessert. Soak up any moisture on top

of foil before removal.

For easy removal, place dish inside

steamer basket or make a sling out of

aluminum foil.
