FISSLER MAGIC COMFORT / INTENSA
3. The safety systems of the
Magic Comfort and Intensa
pressure cookers
• Automatic control valve:
1. with cooking setting selection
2. with pressure limitation function: if the pres-
sure exceeds the selected cooking setting pres-
sure, the control valve automatically opens to
release steam (at max. 1.5 bar).
• Fissler Euromatic:
1. for the automatic depressurisation of the
cooker
2. as residual pressure block: when the safety
slide is under pressure, it is blocked by the
valve gate and the pressure cooker cannot be
opened. The cooker can only be opened when
all pressure has been released.
3. with safety function if the lid has not been
properly closed: the valve ensures that the
opening in the lid is not sealed, so that no pres-
sure can be built up.
4. with pressure limitation function: in the event
of a defect in the safety valve of the main con-
trol valve, the Euromatic is automatically
opened to release the pressure.
• Pressure indicator with marks for Gentle Setting
I and Speed Setting II
• Rubber gasket
• Safety slide in the lid handle (in conjunction with
the Euromatic):
1. to release the pressure by releasing steam
2. to unlock the lid so that it can be opened.
• Bayonet locking system: ensures secure closure
under pressure
• Reach-through safety handle for safe handling
4. Main features of your pres-
sure cooker
The Magic Comfort or Intensa pressure cooker
makes perfect cooking results easy. Thanks to the
high temperatures that are reached in pressure
cookers, food is cooked more quickly, while valu-
able vitamins and minerals are preserved. You
save up to 70% of the usual cooking time, and up
to 50% of energy.
The markings on the safety slide ensure simple
handling of the pressure cooker: To cook with
pressure, set the safely slide to the “closed”
position. Only in this position can pressure build
up. For conventional cooking, set the safety slide
to the “open” position.
During the heating-up process, the Fissler
Euromatic system ensures that the air is expelled
from the pressure cooker. This means that the
oxygen in the air, which is responsible for the
destruction of vitamins and flavours during the
cooking process is not present in the cooker.
If vegetables are cooked in the perforated inset,
they are not immersed in water but cooked by
steam, so that most water-soluble vitamins are
preserved.
Control valve: allows for the selection of the cook-
ing setting (Gentle Setting I or Speed Setting II).
At Gentle Setting I for vegetables and other deli-
cate food, the temperature does not exceed
approx. 109 °C (0.4 bar). At Speed Setting II used
for stews and meat dishes, the maximum tempera-
ture is approx. 116 °C (0.8 bar). If the operating
pressure of the chosen setting is exceeded, steam is
released as soon as a pressure of 1.5 bar is
reached.
