Note: Automatic Keep Warm cannot be turned on for the Sauté Smart Program.
Deglazing the Inner Pot (Pressure Cooking After Sauté)
Sautéing meat and vegetables before pressure cooking is the perfect way
to boost flavors, as sugars caramelize from the high heat of the Sauté Smart
Programme.
To pressure cook after using Sauté, deglaze the inner pot to ensure food items
do not scorch.
To deglaze: remove food items from the inner pot and add a thin liquid
(e.g., water, broth, wine) to the hot surface. Use a wooden or silicone scraper
to loosen anything that may be stuck to the bottom of the inner pot.
The Sauté Smart Programme reaches high temperatures. If unmonitored, food may

burn on this setting. Do not use the lid and do not leave your cooker unattended
while using Sauté.
