Brown Setting
This program allows you to brown your food before cooking it under
pressure. Brown your meat or poultry for the best flavor and texture,
unless otherwise indicated in the recipe. Food should be patted dry
with a paper towel before browning. For best results, make sure the
oil is hot before adding your meat or poultry. Brown in batches to
keep the correct temperature.

pressure level is reached, the cooking time will be displayed
and the timer will start to count down.
11. When cooking is finished, the unit will beep 3 times. Let the
pressure drop on its own (also called the natural release feature),
or release immediately by turning the pressure regulator knob
towards STEAM in short bursts (also called the quick release
method) until the pressure is reduced. CAUTION: When turning
the knob to release pressure, hot steam/liquid will be ejected.
NOTE: Press the “Start/Stop” button when cooking time is complete,
or to cancel and reset. Otherwise, the pressure cooker will
automatically switch to warm for 8 minutes.
WARNING: Do not hold the pressure regulator knob. Hot steam/
liquid will be ejected. Keep hands and face away from steam
vents, use pot holders when removing the inner pot or touching
any hot items, and never force the lid open. The lid will only
open once the pressure is released. Remove the lid by lifting
it away from you to avoid being burned by the steam.
