NOTE: The rubber gasket must always be properly positioned on the
underside of the lid. Check periodically to make sure that it is clean,
flexible, and not cracked or torn. (See pg. 3 “Before First Use”, #3.)
6. If the rubber gasket is damaged, do not use the appliance and
contact the customer service department at 1-800-336-4822.
7. In order to maintain good performance of your pressure cooker,
the bottom of the removable cooking pot, in the area of the
sensor pad, must be cleaned after each use. Wipe with a soft
damp cloth and be sure to dry thoroughly.
8. Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads to clean any of
the parts.
NOTE: Store the pressure cooker with the lid resting upside down on
the removable cooking pot. This will protect the valves, knobs and
pressure regulator on the top of the lid. If the pressure cooker is
stored with the lid sealed, stale odors may form inside.
Cleaning the Pressure Regular Knob
Check that the pressure regulator knob and the pressure safety valves
are in good working order before each use.
1. After the unit has cooled, remove the lid.
2. Press down, turn the pressure regulator knob counter clockwise
past the STEAM to the CLEAN setting and carefully remove.
3. Turn the lid over and place on a table top. Pull out the anti-
locking case. Using a brush, check and remove any food or
foreign particles that may be lodged in the floating valve.
Replace the anti-locking case.
4. Replace the pressure regulator knob by lining the notches up to
the inside wall of the pressure regulator chamber in the lid and
turn clockwise.
1. Press the DELAY TIME button for the delayed time setting.
2. Select the desired cooking mode and time by pressing the
cooking mode button until you reach the appropriate time.
3. Press the START/STOP button. The appliance will begin cooking
after the set time has elapsed.
NOTE: Do not use the delayed time function when cooking foods
that might spoil if left out at room temperature.
Cleaning/Maintenance
Do not wash any parts of the pressure cooker in the dishwasher.
Always wash the pressure cooker thoroughly after every use, or if it
has not been used for an extended period of time.
1. Unplug and let the unit cool before cleaning.
2. Wash the removable cooking pot with warm soapy water. Rinse
and dry thoroughly.
3. Wipe the outer housing with a clean damp cloth. Do not
submerge in water.
4. Remove the condensation reservoir by pulling down. Clean with
warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Replace by
pushing up.
5. Turn the lid upside down, grasp the rubber gasket on either side
and pull up. Clean the rubber gasket in warm soapy water. Rinse
and dry thoroughly. Replace the gasket by pushing it down
inside the edge of the lid. Make sure the groove in the center of
the gasket is positioned around the metal ring on the inside
edge of the lid. Note: If the gasket is not positioned properly,
the unit will not work.
