the pressure cooker. When

pressure begins to build, the

grey pressure indicator will begin

to rise and simultaneously the

pressure gauge will also begin

to rise from resting position.

If you have selected pressure

setting 1 on the Operating

Valve, you will see the entire

black line on the gauge as

soon as the pressure cooker

has reached complete LOW

pressure. If you have selected

pressure setting number2, the

gauge will continue to rise until

both black lines are visible,

indicating you have reached

complete HIGH pressure

within the pressure cooker.

12. Thermo Heat Conductive

Base: Since the objective of

a pressure cooker is rapid

cooking, the bottom of the

pressure cooker pot has a

thermo heat conductive base,

comprised of three layers of

metal. The first layer is stainless

steel, which is safe for contact

with food. In view of the fact

that aluminum should not be in

contact with food and it does

not have magnetic properties,

the aluminum middle layer

is sandwiched between the

two outer layers. Aluminum is

the best heat conductor and

therefore provides faster and

more even heat distribution. The

last layer is stainless steel with

magnetic properties, making

the pressure cooker compatible

with induction cooking.

13. Safety Vent: In case of high

pressure buildup, steam will be

released through the safety vent

cutout located in the rim of the

lid. The cutout in the handle

of the pressure cooker is an

emergency pressure release

mechanism that should never

become operative under normal

use. If both pressure release

valves become blocked due

to over filling, for example, the

pressure will tear the gasket

and escape through this hole.

WARNING: Excess steam escaping

through the hole will be very hot

and might cause serious injuries.

In the event the safety vent is

triggered to release excess pressure,

always place the pressure cooker

on the stove in such a position

that the Safety Vent is not facing

towards you or towards anything

that could get damaged by the

steam and sputtering liquid.

14. Timer: The Fagor Chef comes

with a built-in removable timer

that allows you to time your

meal up for to 99 minutes. To

remove the timer from the unit,

simply pull the tab on the corner

of the timer and lift. To start the

timer, begin by holding down

the START/STOP button for

3 seconds the digital screen

should turn on and 00.00 should

appear in the window (Fig. 5).

If there is time on the clock,

you can reset the screen by

simultaneously holding down the

MIN and SEC buttons on the

timer (Fig. 6). To set the timer,

you can independently select

the minutes by pressing the

MIN button and the seconds

by pressing the SEC button

to the specified cooking time

(Fig 7). To begin timing, press

the START/STOP button (Fig

8). The clock on the timer will

decrease until it reaches 00.00

when it is done. At the end

of the cooking time, the alarm

will ring letting you know your

meal is ready. The alarm will

continue to ring until you press

the START/STOP button to shut

off. The alarm will not stop the

pressure cooker from cooking

your meal; you will need to shut

off the heat to finish cooking.
