The mechanism design prevents the lid from being opened when any pressure exists inside of the unit. 1 USING FOR THE FIRST TIME Please read these instructions carefully before using the cookware for the first time. • Before first use, wash the pressure cooker and lightly oil the seal ring. • Put at least 1 1/2 cups of water/ liquid in the pot with the food. Never fill the pot more than two- thirds full. • Lock the lid. • Turn pressure selector to the desired pressure: (I) Low, ( II) Medium, (III) High. See cooking chart on page 3 for guidance. • Turn the heat source to high until the pressure reaches the desired setting. Once the cooker has reached its intended pressure, a red dot will appear in the pressure indicator window. As pressure builds up, it is normal for a small amount of steam to be released from around the edges of the cooker and handles. Also at this time, you may hear a hissing sound. This is normal. Reduce the heat to the minimum required to maintain pressure. • Set a timer for precise timing. See cooking chart on page 3 as a guide. • When the cooking time is complete, release the pressure by using either of the methods described on page 6 in this manual. • Slowly and carefully turn the pressure selector dial “in steps” to the “Open” position (0) and unlock the lid by pulling the handle and lifting the lid up. Open the lid away from you. • NEVER USE FORCE TO OPEN THE COOKER. NEVER OPEN THE LID TOWARDS YOUR FACE. • After use, wash, rinse and dry all parts. Lightly oil the seal. Store the lid upside down on the pot. • All components of the pressure cooker set are dishwasher safe EXCEPT the pressure cooker lid.
