COOKING PREPARATION
1. Open the lid cover in a counter clockwise rotation until the arrow on the lid is in line with the arrow on the
base. Then lift the cover.
2. Ensure that all the parts on the lid are mounted properly including the float valve, exhaust valve, rubber
gasket, and anti-block shield. Check the float valve and exhaust valve for any obstructions. The rubber gasket
should be firmly inside its holding rack and the float valve should be able to move up and down easily.
3. Take the stainless steel inner pot out of the base and fill with the
food and liquid you want to cook. The total amount of food and
liquid should NEVER exceed the maximum level marked on the inner
pot. It is recommended to not fill the inner pot over
foods that expand when they are cooked like rice, beans, or dried
vegetables, should not fill more than ½ of the inner pot. Over filling
may cause the vent pipes to clog which develops excess pressure
that could lead to spillage, damaging the unit, or personal injury.
(Refer to Figure 8.)
4. Remove any foreign objects from the multicooker and wipe the
inner pot and inside of the multicooker with a dry cloth. Place the
inner pot inside the multicooker and rotate slightly to ensure it has
good contact with the heating element. (Refer to Figure 9.)
5. If your desired cooking preset requires, place the lid on the multicooker (see the Preset Guidelines below).
Hold the handle and rotate the handle 30° clockwise until it locks into place, making a sound, and aligning
the arrows on the lid and base so it is the
light up under the Magic Chef name. (Refer to Figure 10.)
6. For presets requiring a lid, position the exhaust valve in the correct position. When the silver float valve is up,
there is pressure inside the cooker. When it is down, there is no pressure inside the cooker. The exhaust valve can
be in two positions. The "Sealing" position maintains airtight cooking conditions and is used for most presets. The
"Venting" position allows steam to be constantly released. This position can also be used for a quick release to
allow the pressure to escape immediately, which can be helpful once cooking is complete so you don't have to
wait for the pressure to release. See below for information on the exhaust valve position. (Refer to Figure 11 and 12.)
