Illustrated instructions on how to close and open the Futura
are given on page 3 and page 4. Closing and opening is easy once you
have understood it and practiced it a few times.
The stated volume of all pressure cookers is that of the cooker body.
Cooking capacity in a pressure cooker is less than its full volume. The
pressure cooker body should never be filled more than two-thirds its
capacity. This is to safeguard against blocking the steam vent and to
leave enough space to allow steam to circulate. Certain foods, however
– liquid foods such as soups and foods such as lentils, beans, and rice
which expand during cooking and/or froth – should not be loaded more
than half the capacity of the cooker body. Any food which froths
excessively and sprouts out of the cooker – such as soybeans and Indian
lentils (especially tuvar dal and moong dal) – should not be loaded more
than one-third the capacity of the cooker; if sprouting still occurs,
reduce quantity further suitably until sprouting stops. The two-third
and half levels are indicated inside the cooker body as ‘Maximum Food
Level’ and ‘Maximum Food Level for Certain Foods’ respectively.
The volumes of the two-thirds, half and one-third capacities for each
size of Futura pressure cooker are given in a chart on page 29.
The cooker body comes fitted with a body handle screwed on to a
body handle bracket attached to the cooker body. There is a short
body handle (except for 2 Liter and 3 Liter models) attached to the
cooker body, which helps carry the cooker when it is loaded.
The lid comes assembled with the detachable pressure regulator
and sealing ring. The pressure regulator automatically maintains the
cooking pressure of about 15 pounds per square inch/psi (1 kg per square
cm) and can be used for pressure release by fingertip control. The
pressure regulator has a light spring clip strong enough to prevent it
falling off should the lid be inverted. To remove the pressure regulator
from a hot lid: invert the lid; grasp the narrow end which drops lower
than the handle with the fingertips and gently twist off.
