Getting Started - Zavor LUX EDGE Manuel D'utilisation

1. Pressure Regulating Knob: Turn the regulating knob to the "Pressure"
position when cooking under pressure or when any of the pressure cooking
functions (Rice*, Soup*, Beans, Meat, Poultry, Vegetable*, Pot Roast,
Dessert, Oats, Manual*). Turn the knob to the "Steam" position to release
the pressure after cooking. When slow cooking, using any of the slow cook
functions (Soup**, Chili, Manual**), Steam or Keep Warm functions, be sure
to turn the pressure regulating knob to the "Steam" position.
* this function houses a pressure setting in addition to others, be sure to use the
proper setting when using this function.
** this function houses a slow cook setting in addition to others, be sure to use
the proper setting when using this function.
2. Locking Pin: The lid automatically locks when it is correctly aligned and
closed. While cooking under the pressure function, you cannot open the lid
until all of the pressure is released.
3. Cool-Touch Handles: The cool to the touch handles of the multi-cooker
allow for safe handling and opening of the lid.
4. Floating Valve: The floating valve controls the amount of pressure inside the
cooker by allowing excess pressure to be released.
5. Y-Shaped Gasket Attachment: Sits on the underside of the lid and creates
an airtight seal needed for the cooker to build up pressure. Check the silicone
gasket for any tears or cracks before using any of the pressure cooking
functions. To remove the attachment, hold the center of the Y (not just the
silicone nub) and pull. The ring will detach making for more accessible gasket
removable and replacement. To reattached, place the silicone centerpiece
back on the steel tip and push down until correctly replaced. To order a
new gasket, please contact a ZAVOR Representative at 1-855-928-6748 or
purchase it directly on the ZAVOR website at www.zavoramerica.com.
6. Safety Pressure Valve: The safety pressure valve allows excess pressure
to escape from the cooker when being used for pressure cooking. It works
independently of the floating valve.
7. Anti-Blocking Case: Pull it towards yourself to release the pressure
regulator knob for cleaning.
8. Condensation Reservoir: Collects excess condensation during cooking. If
there is some liquid in the reservoir after cooking, empty it.
9. Heating Element and Temperature Sensor: Both elements regulate the
cooking temperature inside the pot.
10. Removable Cooking Pot: Stainless steel pot is dishwasher safe, but hand
washing is always recommended.
11. Stationary Pot: This pot cannot be removed from the electric multi-cooker
and should NEVER be used for cooking. Before cooking, make sure to place
the removable cooking pot into the stationary pot first. All ingredients should
be placed into the removable cooking pot ONLY.
12.Power Cord: The power cord comes detached from the base of the
stationary pot and needs to be fully inserted to ensure the multi-cooker
6
is properly powered. To fully insert the power cord, hold the grip of the plug
and firmly push the end into the base of the cooker until it is no longer visible.
13.Stainless Steel Rack: Used to keep food off the floor of the inner pot to
prevent them from sitting in their juices/fats. Allows for better steam flow/
distribution when pressure cooking or steaming foods. The handles make for
easy transporting of the rack.
NOTE: When cooking smaller sized foods, make sure they do not fall through
the grates on the rack.
14. Control Panel: The easy to use controls allow you to select the different
programs available with the touch of a finger. The panel is equipped with 4
icons that let you know which stage of the cooking process the multi-cooker
is at. Also, on the control panel you can find the HIGH and LOW indicator
lights which blink while pressure or temperature is building. These three
lights turn solid once the unit has reached proper pressure or temperature.

Getting Started:

Before First Use
Read the safety instructions found in this manual before plugging in and
operating the unit. Before using the multi-cooker for the first time, follow
these steps:
1. Remove all packing materials and literature from within the ZAVOR LUX™
EDGE Multi-Cooker. Lift out the removable cooking pot and remove any
pieces of paper from under it. Remove the plastic protection from the control
panel and any stickers from the lid or stainless steel housing.
2. Wash all the removable parts in warm soapy water, rinse, and dry all parts
thoroughly. Wipe the stainless steel outer housing with a clean damp cloth.
NEVER submerge the stainless steel outer housing in water or any other
liquid. Only the removable cooking pot is dishwasher safe.
3. To clean the pressure regulator knob, gently push the pressure regulator
knob down and at the same time turn the pressure regulator knob
counterclockwise past STEAM to the CLEAN setting. Once the white dot on
CLEAN is aligned with the white dot on the base of the pressure regulator,
you can lift the pressure regulator up and out of the lid. Look through the
holes of the pressure regulator to make sure nothing is obstructing, and then
clean the pressure regulator knob with warm soapy water, allowing the water
to run through the pressure regulator to remove all particles.
4. To put the pressure regulator back onto the lid, align the CLEAN setting with
the white dot on the base, gently push down on the pressure regulator and
turn the knob clockwise until it slides back into place.
5. Make sure the silicone gasket is seated correctly inside the lid or else the
cooker cannot function properly.
6. After thorough drying, place the removable cooking pot back into the multi-
cooker before cooking.
