SMART SETTINGS

The Fast Slow Pro™ features 6 Smart Settings;
Pressure Cook, Slow Cook, Steam, Sear, Sauté,
and Reduce. Pressure and slow cook settings
have a list of commonly used food types with
preset cooking times and temperatures/
pressure levels to give the best results;
however, we suggest experimenting with these
depending on the recipe, amount of food being
cooked, and your personal taste. Alternatively,
you can use the CUSTOM setting to select
your own cooking times and temperatures/
pressure levels.

Your CUSTOM setting will remain in the
memory of the cooker, even after the cooker
is unplugged. To reset to the factory setting,
unplug cooker from the power outlet and
press and hold the START/SELECT dial while
plugging it back in. The letter 'd' and a number
will briefly appear on the screen, confirming
the reset to factory settings.

HANDS-FREE VARIABLE
STEAM RELEASE

The Fast Slow Pro™ features 3 steam
release methods:

Auto Quick

Pressure is released quickly to minimize
overcooking of foods or recipes with short
cook times.

Auto Pulse

Pressure is released in bursts to reduce
disturbance to the food inside, as well as
prevent foam from starchy foods from spraying
out of the release valve.

Natural

Pressure subsides naturally without releasing
steam through the pressure release valve to
prevent the churning up or breaking apart of
sensitive ingredients like stocks and beans
during pressure release.

The desired steam release method can
be selected using the RELEASE button
on the control panel.

The selected steam release method will
automatically start at the end of the
PRESSURE COOK cycle.

Pressing and holding the RELEASE button
while the unit is pressurized will open the
pressure release valve for 30 seconds.

KEEP WARM

The KEEP WARM function maintains hot
foods at safe serving temperature (140°F/60°C
or above) until you are ready to serve. The
default KEEP WARM time is 2 hours and it can
be adjusted up to a maximum of 4 hours.
Turn the TIME dial to adjust the programmed
KEEP WARM time. After the time is set the
LCD screen will continue counting up.

To use KEEP WARM as a standalone
function, press the KEEP WARM button
on the control panel while in the main settings
menu. The LCD screen will display ‘KEEP
WARM’ and the timer will start counting up.

The KEEP WARM function will automatically
switch on after any SLOW COOK cycle;
however it can be toggled on and off in both
PRESSURE COOK and SLOW COOK using
the KEEP WARM button on the control panel.

12

STOP/CANCEL BUTTON AND
STANDBY MODE

Pressing the STOP/CANCEL button during
any cooking cycle will pause the cycle for up to
5 minutes. If the cycle is not restarted during
this time, the cooker will go into standby mode.

Pressing the STOP/CANCEL button during
setup or while the cooker is paused will return
to the previous screen.

Pressing the STOP/CANCEL button from the
main settings menu will switch the cooker to
standby mode.

Press and hold the STOP/CANCEL button for
2 seconds at any time to enter standby mode.
If there is pressure inside the cooker when it
switches to standby mode, it will instead switch
to pressure release mode with Natural release
selected. Press the RELEASE button to switch
to a different release method or press and hold
the RELEASE button for an extended release.

ALTITUDE ADJUST

At higher altitudes, the temperature at which
water boils decreases as a result of the drop
in air pressure. This lower air pressure creates
very different conditions for cooking with a
pressure cooker.

In order to maintain consistent cooking results
at various altitudes, the Fast Slow Pro™ has an
Altitude Adjust feature that adjusts the settings
based on the altitude of your current location.

1. To enter Altitude Adjust mode, press and
hold STOP/CANCEL to activate standby
mode. The button backlight will go out and
the LCD screen will no longer illuminate.

2. Once in standby, press and hold both the
KEEP WARM and RELEASE buttons for
2 seconds. 'ALt' will appear on the screen.

3. Turn the TIME dial to enter the altitude
of your current location. Altitude can be
adjusted from 1,000 ft to 6,000 ft in
1,000 ft increments. The pressure cooker
should not be used above 6,500 ft.

4. Press the START/SELECT dial to confirm.

5. The cooker’s settings have now been
adjusted for your current altitude. To reset
to the factory setting (sea level), unplug
cooker from the power outlet and press
and hold START/SELECT while plugging
it back in. The letter 'd' and a number will
briefly appear on the screen, confirming the
reset to factory settings.

PRESSURE COOK

MINIMUM

1QUART

COMBINED

FOOD & LIQUID

The PRESSURE COOK setting is a great
option for cooking succulent meats, richly
flavored stews, delicious soups and even
desserts in a fraction of the time and energy
taken by conventional cooking methods.

Pressure cooking is a method of cooking food
and a small amount of liquid in a gasket­sealed vessel. All the steam from cooking
gets retained inside the vessel, building
pressure. This increase in pressure raises the
temperature of the liquid and steam inside to
well above boiling point, allowing food to be
cooked up to 70% faster.

1. Turn the START/SELECT dial until the
indicator reaches the PRESSURE COOK
setting. Press the START/SELECT dial
to confirm.

2. Turn the START/SELECT dial until the
indicator on the right hand side of the LCD
reaches the desired setting.
