1. Pressure Regulator Knob: Turn the regulator knob to the "Pressure"
position when using the PRESSURE COOK, GRAINS, EGGS and
DESSERT functions. Turn the knob to the "Steam" position to release the
pressure after using those functions and when using the SLOW COOK,
YOGURT, STEAM, SIMMER and KEEP WARM functions.
2. Self-Locking Pin: The lid will lock automatically when it is properly
aligned and closed. While cooking under pressure you will not be able to
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 easy 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. Silicone Gasket: Creates an airtight seal needed for the cooker to
build pressure. Check the silicone gasket for any tears or cracks before
using the multi-cooker. To order a new gasket, please contact a Fagor
Representative at 1-800-207-0806 or purchase it directly on the Fagor
website at www.fagoramerica.com.
6. Safety Pressure Valve: The safety pressure valve allows excess
pressure to escape from the cooker when it is 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 liquid in the reservoir after cooking, simply 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 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. Steamer Basket with Trivet: Needs to be placed inside the cooking
pot to steam delicate foods and vegetables.
13. LCD Panel: The easy to navigate interactive screen allows you to
select different programs with the touch of a finger. Main functions are:
Pressure Cook, Slow Cook, Steam, Brown, Sauté, Simmer, Yogurt, Grains,
Eggs and Dessert. In addition, each of the main functions has a selection
of settings with preset cooking times and temperatures/pressure levels.

Select the desired cooking function and setting. Adjust the time if needed.
Press TIME DELAY and use the dial to adjust the delay time. Press the
START/STOP button to confirm. The multi-cooker will begin cooking after the
time delay has elapsed.
For Example: It is 8:00 am and you want your dinner to be ready at 6:00 pm.
You use a recipe that calls for a SLOW COOK function and the Beans setting
(which is 8 hours preset cooking time). Turn the pressure regulator knob to
"Steam". Turn a dial until the SLOW COOK function is selected and confirm
it by pressing the dial. From the settings shown to the right, select the Beans
setting and confirm it by pressing the dial. To program your delay time, press
the TIME DELAY button and adjust the time so the screen displays 2 hours.
Press the START/STOP button to confirm and you are all set! The unit will
start cooking at 10:00 am and your dinner will be ready around 6:00 pm.
Please note that exact cooking time may vary since the unit needs to build
the temperature and/or pressure.
CAUTION: DO NOT LEAVE PERISHABLE FOODS SUCH AS MEAT, POULTRY,
FISH, CHEESE AND DAIRY PRODUCTS AT ROOM TEMPERATURE FOR
MORE THAN 2 HOURS (OR MORE THAN 1 HOUR WHEN THE ROOM
TEMPERATURE IS ABOVE 90°F). WHEN COOKING WITH THESE FOODS,
DO NOT SET THE DELAY FUNCTION FOR MORE THAN 1-2 HOURS.
KEEP WARM – Used for keeping cooked food warm up to 12 hours or
reheating it.
After the cooking time is finished, the unit will automatically switch to the
KEEP WARM function (at a temperature of 165°F) for up to 12 hours. Press
the START/STOP button to cancel the KEEP WARM program.
