WARNING: NEVER TRY TO FORCE THE LID OPEN WHILE YOU ARE
COOKING UNDER PRESSURE, THIS CAN RESULT IN A SERIOUS
ACCIDENT.
WARNING: NEVER DEEP FRY OR PRESSURE FRY IN THE MULTI-
COOKER. IT IS DANGEROUS AND MAY CAUSE A FIRE AND SERIOUS
DAMAGE.
9. When the cooking time ends, the unit will beep and switch to the KEEP

10. After the cooking time is up, release the pressure. You have two options
for releasing the pressure:
a. Quick Release Method: Release the pressure immediately by turning
the pressure regulator knob to STEAM.
CAUTION: THE STEAM COMING OUT OF THE COOKER WILL BE
HOT, AND MIGHT CONTAIN DROPLETS OF HOT LIQUID. BE SURE
TO USE POT HOLDERS, OVEN MITTS OR A KITCHEN TOWEL WHEN
RELEASING PRESSURE.
b. Natural Release Method: Release the pressure by shutting the unit
off completely. This allows the pressure to drop naturally without turning
the pressure regulator knob to STEAM. This will take several minutes,
during which the food inside will continue cooking. Some recipes (such
as quinoa) benefit from this extra cooking time. You will know when the
pressure has been released because the floating valve will drop and you
will be able to open the lid.
11. Once all the pressure is released, remove the lid by turning it clockwise,
lifting it up and tilting it away from yourself to avoid getting burnt by
any remaining steam or hot water condensation dripping from the inner
portion of the lid.
WARNING: AFTER COOKING, THE REMOVABLE COOKING POT WILL
BE HOT. USE POT HOLDERS, OVEN MITTS OR A KITCHEN TOWEL TO
HANDLE IT OR LET IT COOL DOWN BEFORE REMOVING.
