Quick Release – This method uses the
Steam Release Button. Depress in short
bursts until all steam has been released.
IMPORTANT
Steam Release Button will be hot if
pressed for prolonged period.
Slow Release –If the Steam release button
is not depressed when cooking is fi nished,
the steam will automatically vent out of the
Pressure Release Valve slowly. This method
is recommended for recipes containing
larger quantities of liquid such as soups
and casseroles to prevent liquid being
forced out with the steam. The Slow release
method is also used to fi nish off recipes
such as risottos and puddings.
NOTE
Release steam by using method
recommended in recipe.
