Pressure Regulator Valve
with Steam Vent Tube
This Valve serves as a manual pressure regulator. By
adjusting this Lever you will be able to switch from
PRESSURE to STEAM to CLEAN or from PRESSURE
to STEAM RELEASE to release pressure in short
bursts. This Pressure Regulator Valve has been factory calibrated to
release steam from your Pressure Cooker when it reaches its factory
determined maximum pressure capacity (15 psi).
Remove the Pressure Regulator Valve and rinse under lukewarm water for
easy cleaning. (See Important Safety Information section of this Use and Care
Guide for removal instructions.) If this Valve is worn it MUST be replaced.
CAUTION: Never disassemble Pressure Regulator Valve or clean the
Steam Vent Tube when Pressure Cooker is in use.
Pressure Indicator Safety Valve
with Pressure Lift Pin
This visual safety device indicates if the Pressure Cooker Pan is under
pressure or if all pressure has been released from the inside of the Pan.
When the Pressure Lift Pin is in the UP position, you will know the
Pressure Cooker Pan is pressurized. In this position you will not be able
to remove the Pressure Cooker Lid. It also acts a Pressure Relief Valve,
exhausting excess pressure. The Pressure Lift Pin Gasket should fit
snugly around the Pin.
If the Pressure Lift Pin is clogged or unclean, it may not function
properly. If the Pressure Lift Pin does not drop when expected, gently
slide the Lid Lock Button towards you to see if the Pressure Lift Pin
drops. If it still does not drop, wait until all steam has been released.
If this Valve becomes clogged it can easily be cleaned by gently
removing excess food particles from the Valve located on the underside
of the Pressure Cooker Lid. (See Important Safety Information section
of this Use and Care Guide.)
Safety Valves
When pressure builds, excess steam or pressure may begin to
escape through these automatic Valves. This is normal and so is the
audible hissing sound coming from these Valves.
If these Valves become clogged, they can easily be cleaned by gently
removing excess food particles from the Valves located on the underside
of the Pressure Cooker Lid. (See Important Safety Information section of
this Use and Care Guide.)
Safety Steam Vent: In case of a high-pressure build-up, steam will be
released through the Safety Vent Cutout located in the rim of the
Pressure Cooker Lid.

For Your Safety
Locking Lid with Easy-Grip Handle
The large, easy-to-handle Lid Lock Button effortlessly locks or unlocks
the Pressure Cooker Lid. To close, place the Lid onto the top of the
Pressure Cooker Pan so that the Lid Handle is slightly to the right of
the Pressure Cooker Pan Handle. Turn the Lid Handle clockwise until
the two Handles are together and facing you. The Lid Lock Button
locks the Lid in place. Make sure the Lid falls below the rim of the
Pressure Cooker Pan and is securely attached onto the Pan.
To remove the Pressure Cooker Lid, pressure must be released before
opening. When pressure is completely reduced, slide the Lid Lock
Button towards you, twist the Lid counter-clockwise until the Lid can
be removed easily. Always tilt the Lid away from you to avoid the steam.
(See Operating Instructions Section in this Use and Care Guide.)
Gasket
The Gasket provides a tight seal for your Pressure Cooker. Never use
the Lid without making sure that the Gasket is properly positioned. Do
not use the Lid if the Gasket appears to be cracked, worn or torn. In
this case, you must replace the Gasket. You can prolong the life of your
Gasket by lightly coating it with a small amount of vegetable oil after
each use.
