Using The Pressure Cooker For The First Time - Kuhn Rikon DUROMATIC COMFORT Mode D'emploi

4. Using the pressure cooker for the first time

Before using the pressure cooker the first time, wash the pan, lid and
gasket with hot, soapy water.
On electric cookers, the diameter of the pressure cooker base should match
that of the hotplate or ring. The compatible hob diameter is etched into
outside of the base of the pan. (See section 13).
On some induction cookers noise may be generated whilst cooking under
certain conditions on account of cookware oscillation caused by the magnetic
field. Unfortunately this cannot be prevented when using this cookware.
.
If you cook on gas, never allow the gas flame to lick the sides of the pan. If you
do, the exterior of the pan will become discoloured and the grips (or handles)
will become unnecessarily hot. We recommend using a SWISS
ENERGYSAVER. (See section 16).
4.1 Using your non-stick DUROMATIC pressure cooker for the first time
After washing out the pressure cooker thoroughly with warm water to
which washing-up liquid has been added, place a few drops of cooking
oil into the pressure cooker prior to its first use and then wipe out with a
paper kitchen towel.
