Regulating the stove
Never heat the opened pressure cooker when empty or with only oil for
more than 2 minutes at the highest energy setting, as overheating can
damage the base.
Hot plate/glass ceramic (radiation/halogen):
The stovetop should be the same diameter as the bottom of the pot or
smaller.
Gas stove:
Place the cookware in the center and avoid flames going up the side of the
pot, as this will damage the plastic handles.
Induction:
Always place the cookware in the center of the burner. The size of the
base of the pan should match or be larger than the burner size, otherwise
the burner may not respond to the base of the pan.
Special instructions for induction cookers:
To avoid overheating and damage to the cookware due to the high
performance of induction, never heat it unattended or while empty.
Also observe the instructions provided by the stove manufacturer.
A buzzing sound may be heard during use. This noise is due to technical
reasons and is not a sign of a defect in the stove or cookware.
Energy saving tips
• When cooking on the gentle or fast cook setting, regulate the stove so
that the cooking indicator does not rise above the respective cooking
setting and the pressure regulator does not start to release steam.
• Use a burner of the appropriate size (see specifications above).
• Select the cookware size according to the amount being cooked.
• Use the stored heat of the base. Switch off the stove before the end of
the cooking time to take advantage of the cooling time.

Preparation
Add the ingredients to the pressure cooker according to the recipe.
Observe the specified filling quantities (chapter 5).
Then put the lid on and close the pot.
If the locking indicator (Fig. A-8) in the lid handle is green, the pot is ready
(chapter 4).
Selecting a cooking setting
See Figure N
Your Vitaquick® allows you to select between two cooking settings: Gentle
cooking (1st ring) and fast cooking (2nd ring).
Cooking setting 1 (1st ring), approx. 109°C/228°F (gentle cooking)
(40 kPa operating pressure)
For very delicate dishes such as fish and vegetables
Cooking setting 2 (2nd ring), approx. 117°C/243°F (express cooking)
(80 kPa operating pressure)
for all other dishes such as meat dishes and stews
Parboiling and venting
Heat the pressure cooker on the highest energy level.
Steam will escape from under the lid handle (Fig. A-6) and with it the
oxygen in the air that is harmful to vitamins.
This process may take a few minutes. As soon as the Euromatic closes and
no more steam escapes, the pressure will begin to build. Shortly thereafter
the cooking indicator (Fig. A-5) will start to rise.
