8. Gasket: In order to provide an
air-tight seal, a silicone gasket is
positioned around the underside
of the lid (Fig. 2). Never use
the pressure cooker without
the silicone gasket properly
positioned. Do not use the
pressure cooker with a worn
or torn gasket, which should
be replaced immediately. We
recommend that you replace
your gasket every 12-18 months,
depending on the frequency of
use. Contact the Fagor Customer
Service Department at: 1-800-
207-0806 or email at: info@
fagoramerica.com. You can
also purchase a gasket online
at www.fagoramerica.com.

Chef Pressure Cooker
Components and Features
1. Pressure Cooker Pot: Made of
high-quality, heavy-gauge, 18/10
stainless steel. All cooking takes
place in the pressure cooker pot.
2. Lid: Made of high-quality,
heavy-gauge stainless steel,
the lid must be properly locked
in position in order to build
sufficient pressure for cooking.
The raised indentation on top
of the lid, located to the left of
the handle, allows you to easily
align the lid to the cutout on
top of the base handle when
closing the pressure cooker.
3. Pot Handle: Besides being used
to move and carry the pressure
cooker, the pot handle interlocks
with the lid handle when the lid
is turned clockwise. The grey
triangle on the pot handle is to
assist you in properly aligning
your lid together for closure.
4. Lid Handle: Used to remove
the lid from the pressure
cooker, the lid handle contains
important components vital to
the use of the pressure cooker.
To reduce the risk of burns or
spills, the lid and pot handle
should be positioned so that
they do not extend over adjacent
surface units or overhang over
the edge of the stove top.
5. Support Grip: The support
grip provides greater stability
when moving or carrying
the pressure cooker.
6. Operating Valve: This operating
valve features 2 pressure
settings a steam release position
and an unlock position.
7. Pressure Lock: The grey
pressure lock is used to lock and
unlock the pressure cooker. The
Chef pressure cooker has an
automatic locking mechanism,
which means that by aligning the
lid handle with the pot handle
and sliding the lid handle to the
left the pressure cooker will lock
by itself. For safety reasons, the
unit will not build pressure if the
pressure lock has not clicked into
place. This measure guarantees
that the cooker will never open
while it’s under pressure. To
unlock, slide the pressure lock
down towards you and slide the
lid handle to the right (Fig.1).
WARNING: NEVER FORCE THE
PRESSURE COOKER OPEN
