 BASIC SAFETY 

PRECAUTIONS 

»  Use a suitable size hotplate or gas burner equal 

to, or smaller than, the pan base. Overheating 

may blacken the stainless steel or result in 

brown or blue stains. These stains will disap-

pear with normal cleaning.

»  Never use the pressure cooker without fi rst 

adding water as this could seriously damage 

your appliance.

»  This appliance cooks food under high pressure. 

Incorrect use may result in burns. Ensure that 

the cooker is properly closed before heating. 

See section “how to use the pressure cooker”.

»  Never fi ll the pan to more than 2/3 of its capac-

ity. When cooking elements that expand, such 

as rice and pulses, never fi ll the pan to more 

than halfway.

»  Before each use, check that the valves are not 

obstructed. See section “maintenance”.

»  Keep these instructions for future reference.
