- Only use the heat sources permitted in this
instruction manual.
- When cooking meat with skin (e.g. ox tongue),
which may swell with the pressure, do not prick the
skin while it is swollen. You may suffer burns.
CAUTION:
The pressure cooker generates internal pressure
and the liquids it contains have a boiling point of
below 120ºC. After boiling, especially when the
pressure is reduced rapidly, a large amount of
steam and liquid will be generated.
Water condensation may appear on the surfaces and
objects around this appliance.
Do not cook apple jam, maize, pulses, algae, oat
flakes or other foods which expand, in order to avoid
blocking the air outlet.
Do not boil soda water directly. Do not use an
excessive amount of oil or wine.
Do not use the pressure cooker to roast or fry foods
under pressure.
Do not direct the safety grille towards the user or
anywhere people may pass by.
Do not open the lid of the cooker when it is under
pressure. Before using it, make sure that the pressu-
re cooker is correctly closed for heating.
Liquids that are salted, alkaline or which contain
sugar or vinegar should not be kept in the cooker
for prolonged periods. Wash and dry the cooker
after use.
- It is recommended to replace the sealing ring once
per year.
- Any misuse or failure to follow the instructions for
use renders the guarantee and the manufacturer's
liability null and void.
Properties
1. This stainless steel pressure cooker has been
designed for domestic use. The double reinforced
compound metal bottom guarantees that the heat is
evenly transferred. The cooker is suitable for gas,
electric and vitro-ceramic hobs and induction plates.
2. The pressure cooker has a variety of safety
mechanisms:
• Pressure release selector valve: The valve can be
set between 60 kPa and 100 kPa. You can select
the working pressure you wish. This load valve is
stable and safe.
• Safety valve: When internal pressure is generated
in the pressure cooker, the locking pin rises. The red
pin on the valve indicates that the cooker is under
pressure. In the case of abnormal pressure or mal-
functioning of the pressure release selector valve,
steam is released through the safety valve. If the lid
is not properly closed, pressure is not generated in
the cooker and steam will be released constantly
between the handles and through the safety valve. In
this case, turn off the hob and close the lid correctly.
Do not open the pressure cooker until the valve pin

has descended.
• Sealing gasket/safety grille: In the case of a mal-
function in the pressure control and safety valves,
the sealing gasket will protrude through the grille
in order to reduce the internal pressure of the cooker.
There are various safety mechanisms for reducing
the pressure which guarantee that the pressure
cooker functions properly. (Fig. 3)
The four positions of the arrow (►) corres-
pond to the following functions:
Position for removing the pressure release
selector valve
Position for releasing air
Low pressure position (60 kPa)
High pressure position (100 kPa)
While the cooker is at low pressure, the pressure
release selector valve cannot be turned to the
"0" position.
Instructions for use
Before use:
- Read this instruction manual carefully, especially
the safety recommendations.
- Before using the product for the first time, clean
the parts that will come into contact with food in the
manner described in the cleaning section.
To eliminate possible odours from manufacturing,
you can half-fill the cooker with water, close the lid
and heat. Ten minutes after having decompressed
the air in the cooker using the pressure release
selector valve, remove the cooker from the heat
source.
Once cooled and with the pressure reduced, you can
remove the water and clean and dry the cooker.
Filling with water:
- Fill the receptacle taking care to observe the MAX
and MIN level (Fig. 2a)
Use:
This appliance can be used with ceramic hobs,
induction hobs, electric and gas cookers.
