For models with a non-stick coating: do not use whisks or sharp
utensils made of metal. Do not tap the rim of the pan to remove
food from utensils, as it could damage it and cause leaks.
Steadily turn the operating valve (A) to adjust the
decompression speed, and finish opposite the pictogram mark
liquid starts to spurt out, return the operating valve (A) to the
"Pressure Cooking" position, then carry out fast decompression
in cold water - (refer to the "End of cooking in 'Pressure Cooking'
mode" section.).
If the pressure indicator (D) does not go down, carry out fast
decompression in cold water - (refer to the "End of cooking in
'Pressure Cooking' mode" section).
Never interfere with the pressure indicator.
For foodstuffs that expand and/or foam during cooking, such
as rice, pulses, dehydrated vegetables, stewed fruit, pumpkin,
courgettes, carrots, potatoes, fillets of fish, etc. Let your pressure
cooker cool down for a few minutes, and then carry out fast
decompression in cold water - (refer to the section 'End of
AFTER
COOKING
cooking in pressure Cooker mode'). Methodically and gently
shake the pressure cooker each time before opening, after
having checked that the pressure indicator has gone down to
the lowered position, to prevent bubbles of steam from
overflowing and burning you. This operation is particularly
important when steam is released quickly or after cooling down
under tap water.
Always be very careful when moving your pressure cooker under
pressure. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use oven mitts when
necessary. Lift using both of the handles.
For soups, we recommend that you do a fast decompression in
cold water (refer to the "End of cooking in 'Pressure Cooking'
mode" section).
Make sure the operating valve (A) is in the steam release
position before opening the pressure cooker. The pressure
indicator (D) should be in the lowered position.
Never use force to open your pressure cooker. Make sure the
internal pressure has been released. The pressure indicator (D)
should be in the lowered position. (See "Safety" section).
