at least 0.25 litre of liquid, so that sufficient
steam can be produced and the pan doesn't
overheat.
6. Fill the base with water or stock.
7. Place the lid 2 on the
base 12, taking care to
position it so thatthe round
mark on the lid is lined up
with the arrow on the base
handle 10.
8. Turn the lid until the lid handle 9 and the
base handle 10 are aligned and audibly
click into place.
6.2 Cooking
1. Choose the desired cooking setting on the
pressure regulator 6:
I: Steam cooking:
II: Fast cooking:
Please note: Steam cooking uses 0.6 bar
(600 hPa) and fast cooking uses 1.1 bar
(1000 hPa) pressure.
2. Place the pressure cooker on a hob which is
a similar size to the base of the pressure
cooker.
Caution! The hob should
not be bigger than the
base
of
the
cooker.
Otherwise
could lead to too much heat rising up the
sides of the base, thereby damaging the
plastic handles.
3. Turn the hob onto the highest setting.

pressure

As soon as there is pressure in the base, the
red safety valve 4 will move upwards
thereby locking the lid.
Please note: At the beginning of the
cooking time, a little steam may emerge from
the safety valve.
4. As soon as steam starts to come out of the
pressure regulator 6, lower the temperature
of the hob to around 1/3 so that only a small
amount of steam comes out.
This is when the "cooking time" starts.
Note: When there is hardly any steam
coming out, the pressure cooker is cooking
the food quickly and saving energy.
6.3 Steam cooking
The gentlest way to prepare food, especially
vegetables, is by using the steam cooking setting.
When food is cooked using this method it only
comes into contact with hot steam and scarcely
with the liquid water. This prevents minerals,
vitamins and other important elements in the food
from being lost during cooking.
Steam cooked vegetables also have a more
intensive taste than when they are cooked using
the normal method.
1. Pour in at least 0.25 l water
2. Place the food to be cooked in the base.
3. Continue with cooking as explained in
"6.2 Cooking" on page 23.
