Care and Cleaning
Cleaning should only be carried out when the
Pressure Cooker is switched off and the plug
removed from the socket. Allow the unit to
completely cool before cleaning.
Do not use the removable cooking pan on
the stovetop, inside a microwave oven or
inside an oven. Use the pan only inside the
Pressure Cooker unit.
Wash the sealing gasket and lid by hand in
warm, soapy water. Dry all parts thoroughly.
Cooking Pan
To remove food that is cooked onto the
bottom of the removable cooking pan, soak
the pan in warm water before cleaning. Wash
the removable cooking pan by hand in warm,
soapy water. Dry thoroughly before replacing
the pan in the unit.
Exterior
Wipe the exterior of the Pressure Cooker with
a damp cloth and polish dry. DO NOT use
harsh abrasives, scourers or chemicals as
these will damage the surfaces. To prevent
damage to the unit do not use alkaline
cleaning agents when cleaning, use a soft
cloth and mild detergent.
Condensation Collector
Empty the condensation collection of water
after each use. Wash in warm, soapy water.
Lid and Sealing Gasket
Always examine the gasket before each use.
The silicon sealing gasket on the inside of
your pressure cooker lid may deteriorate
over time. Remove and replace the sealing
gasket for cleaning as per Figure 1 below.
Hand clean using warm, soapy water and dry
thoroughly. Leave the lid upturned for storage
as this will also extend the life of the gasket.
Sealing gaskets will need to be replaced
every 1 – 2 years depending on regular
use. Contact your nearest Sunbeam Service
Centre.
