Troubleshooting The Duromatic - Kuhn Rikon DUROMATIC COMFORT Mode D'emploi

10.2 Additional cleaning and care instructions for the
DUROMATIC non-stick coating
Apart from the general cleaning and care information in section 10, attention is
to be paid to the following:
Do not use any abrasive cleaning agents or SWISS CLEANER to clean
the hard titanium base non-stick coating.
Wash the coating immediately after use, i.e. when the pan is still warm, with
warm water and washing-up liquid so that no residues become hardened. This
also retains the non-stick effect and prevents any residual oils or fats from
being burnt on.

11. Troubleshooting the DUROMATIC

If you are worried about the control valve and the safety devices, do not
use the pressure cooker for cooking under pressure and contact your
dealer or KUHN RIKON. (See section 13)
IIs the pressure cooker leaking?
- Check that the rubber gasket is positioned correctly (see section 7);
- Lubricate the gasket lightly with cooking/vegetable oil or moisten with a
little water;
- Or, if necessary, replace.
If a great deal of effort is required to open or close the lid even after the
gasket has been lubricated with a little cooking oil (possible cause:
deformed lid or pan), the pressure cooker must be taken to a KUHN
RIKON Service Center for inspection.
(See section 13)
If the SI valve (main safety device) releases steam while cooking, the control
valve is not functioning. Dismantle, clean and check the main valve as
described in section 10.
If the pressure indicator stem does not move freely, then disassemble, clean
and check the main valve. (See section 10). If this does not solve the
problem, the lid needs repairing. (See section 13)
