USE AND OPERATION
Before using the pressure cooker for the first time
• Read this instruction manual carefully before first time use for safety. Especially the Safety rules.
• Fill the pressure cooker with ½ water, close the lid and heat the cooker until steam emitted from the pressure control valve. Keep heating for 10 minutes after
steam emitted from the pressure control valve. This will remove the smell of new cooker.
• Open the lid after cooled, pour the water, wash and wipe this new pressure cooker and dry it completely.
Normal operations
1) Make sure the vent pipe is not blocked. If there is a jam clean it by using a small stick. Make sure the safety valve is clean. The sealing ring must be put on
correct position.
2) The cooker must be filled with at least 1/4 L water or other liquids to make steam when using the pressure cooker. The capacity of foods together with liquid
should not more than 2/3 of the cooker's. If the food is easy to spume, it must be less than 1/2 of the cooker's capacity.
3) Close the lid: place the lid onto the cooker body and put the crossbeam under the ear of the body with same direction
in one line. Turn the turning knob clockwise till it can not be turned tight anymore. The lid is well closed (Picture 9).
