Safety Valve: Located under the lid handle. The safety valve is activated in

case of an excess pressure build-up. The pressure cooker cannot be opened

if there is still pressure inside the cooker.

Thermo Heat Conductive Base: Since the objective of a pressure cooker

is rapid cooking, the bottom of the pressure cooker pot has a thermo

heat conductive base, comprised of three layers of metal. The first layer is

stainless steel, which is safe for contact with food. In view of the fact that

aluminum should not be in contact with food and it does not have magnetic

properties, the aluminum middle layer is sandwiched between the two

outer layers. Aluminum is the best heat conductor and therefore provides

faster and more even heat distribution. The last layer is stainless steel with

magnetic properties, making the pressure cooker compatible with induction

cooking.

10. Pressure Indicator: The pressure indicator is the red tipped rod, located on

top of the lid handle. It indicates whether there is pressure inside the cooker.

As the pressure cooker heats and pressure builds, the pressure indicator will

rise automatically producing a slight amount of steam that escapes from the

pressure valve. If the pressure indicator is raised, there is pressure inside the

cooker and the pressure cooker cannot be opened. The pressure lock on

the lid will be blocked and will not slide to the open position. If the pressure

indicator is not raised, there is no pressure inside the cooker, and you can

safely open the lid.
