4. After all the pressure has been
released and you see the pressure
indicator has lowered, slide the
pressure lock towards you and slide
the lid handle to the right holding the
base handle with your left hand. Even
though you have already released the
pressure, be sure to open the
pressure cooker lid away from your
face since there may be intense
cooking steam inside the unit and
very hot water condensation
collected in the lid.
CARE AND CLEANING
1. The uCook Pressure cooker set is
made of high-quality, heavy gauge,
18/10 stainless steel.
2. All components should be washed
with warm water,mild, dish-washing
soap and a non-abrasive cleaning
pad, since stainless steel can
discolor in a dishwasher. Since the
exterior of the pressure cooker pots
and lid have a mirror finish, do not
clean with metal scouring pads or
abrasive cleaners, which will scratch
and ruin the finish. Wash the lid with
water and towel dry.
3. To remove stubborn stains and any
discoloration in the interior of the
pressure cooker, try adding the juice
of half a lemon and 1 to 2 cups of
water to the pressure cooker pot.
Cook at high pressure for 15 minutes,
then remove from heat. Let pressure
release naturally, then wash as usual.
4. After cleaning, towel dry with a clean,
soft kitchen cloth to retain the
polished mirror finish.
5. In order to extend the life of the
silicone gasket, remove after each
use and wash with warm water and
mild, dish-washing soap. Rinse and
dry well, then cover with a thin coat of
vegetable oil before replacing.
6. To store, DO NOT LOCK THE LID IN
PLACE. Simply place the lid
upside-down on top of the pressure
cooker pot.
