Pressure cooking is an ideal way to create quick, flavorful meals. Pressure cooking is a method of cooking food in liquid
(water, stock, wine, etc.) in a sealed Cooking Pot. The sealed Multi-Cooker retains steam and builds pressure, raising the
temperature of the liquid inside the pot above boiling point. The increased temperature of the liquid and the steam results in
reduced cooking times.
HIGH Pressure Setting is 6.5 - 10 PSI (45 - 70 kPa). It is suitable for a wide range of foods.
LOW Pressure Setting is 3.3 - 6.5 PSI (23 - 45 kPa). It is more suited to delicate foods like chicken fillet, fish and some
vegetables.
KEEP WARM Setting: When cooking time is completed, the Multi-Cooker automatically switches to the KEEP WARM
setting to prevent overcooking and to keep your cooked food warm until serving - perfect for busy families, those on the
run and those who need flexible meal times. This setting is not hot enough to cook and should only be used to keep warm,
cooked food for serving.
Ideal Meals to Pressure Cook: Soups, stocks, casseroles, sauces (e.g. pasta sauces), meat, rice, firm vegetables (beetroot,
potatoes) and desserts (e.g., pudding).
Capacity: Never fill the Cooking Pot above the MAX line. Foods that expand during cooking should never go above the
1/2 mark. The Multi-Cooker cannot pressure cook without liquid. Ensure a minimum of 250ml of liquid is used inside the
removable Cooking Pot.
This function allows the user to select their own pressure cooking time ranging from 1 minute to 2 hours, with a temperature
selection of Low or High. This is particularly suitable for those users who would like to pressure cook food items not covered
by our other cooking functions. This also gives the user greater scope for sourcing recipes from a wide range of sources.
Please follow our guidelines for Pressure Cooking on page 9.
USING THE PRESSURE COOKING FUNCTIONS
Place the Multi-Cooker on a flat, level surface.
Place Cooking Pot inside Heating Base. Plug the Multi-Cooker into a wall outlet. The Multi-Cooker will beep, and the
Display Screen will illuminate with four dashes (- - - -).
1.
Place your food and liquid inside the removable Cooking Pot.
2.
Place the Lid onto the Multi-Cooker and align
3.
Using the finger tab, rotate the Steam Release Valve to the "Seal" position.
4.
Select the desired cooking function
5.
Adjust the cooking time and pressure if necessary.
Note: See the Cooking Guide on page 182 to find the possible time and pressure adjustments
6.
Once you have made the desired adjustments, if any, press START/STOP.
7.
The Multi-Cooker needs to gain pressure before pressure cooking can begin. When the Multi-Cooker is gaining
pressure, "HEAt" will appear on the Display Screen and the time will not count down. The amount of time the Multi-
Cooker takes to gain pressure varies according to humidity and water temperature, but average pressurization time is
5-30 minutes. When pressure has been reached, "HEAt" will disappear on the Display Screen, and the time will begin
to count down.
8.
After the set cooking time has elapsed, the Multi-Cooker will beep and will automatically switch to the KEEP WARM
setting. The Display Screen will therefore change from the cook time to a new timer that will count up to 4:00 (4
hours) or until you press the START/STOP button. After 4 hours in the KEEP WARM setting, the Multi-Cooker will go
into stand-by mode, and the Display Screen will illuminate with four dashes (----).
TIP:
1. The pressure cooking settings are in the Cooking Guide table on page 182.
2. If the lid is not shut correctly or if the Steam Release Valve is not in the "Seal" position, the Multi-Cooker cannot gain
pressure and an ERROR message will appear in the Display Screen. Ensure that the Sealing Gasket is placed evenly in
the lid. See the ERROR CODES chart on page 17.
