DO NOT use the unit
for anything other than its intended use.
DO NOT alter the
safety mechanisms or attempt to repair the pressure cooker as this will void the warranty. Please refer to the Care & Maintenance section on page 26 on how to properly maintain the pressure cooker.
DO NOT place the unit
close to ammable
materials, heating units, or wet environments.
• In case of overheating, immediately turn

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

• This pressure cooker should not be used for any medical purposes. It is not designed to reach the required temperature for sterilization.
Use & Care Guidlelines
DO NOT operate the pressure cooker if the cord or plug is damaged, if the unit malfunctions, or if the unit has been damaged in any manner. If the unit is malfunctioning, please contact customer support.
• Always check the pressure release valve
and oat valve for any
clogging before use.
• Make sure all parts of the pressure release
valve and oat valve
are clean and properly assembled before each use.
• Using other accessories that are not compatible with the pressure cooker is not recommended. Doing so may damage the unit or cause injury and will void your warranty.
• The pressure cooker is intended for indoor use only.
• To disconnect the unit
from a power source, press ‘Stop/Cancel’, then remove plug from the outlet.
• It is extremely
important to ll the
pressure cooker with liquid prior to operation. Never cook without liquid; doing so can cause the unit to overheat and damage the safety mechanisms.
DO NOT place frozen
meats or sh into the
pressure cooker; always make sure meat and
sh are thawed before
cooking.
• If you cook meat with a casing, such as sausage, swelling can occur when cooked under pressure. Piercing the skin after cooking can lead to bursts of hot liquid.
• The silicone sealing ring creates a pressure seal between the lid and the pot. Keep the sealing ring completely clean and free from any cracks or deterioration.
DO NOT break the silicone sealing ring. Do not replace it with other rubber sealing rings or use a tension belt to make the pressure cooker seal.
6
• Check and wash anti-
clog lter and pressure
release valve regularly to avoid any blockage.
DO NOT attempt to
open the lid while the
oat valve is still up.
DO NOT put anything
on or use other objects to replace the pressure release valve.
• Never use a towel to clog the gap between the lid and edge of the housing.
• The bottom of the inner pot and heating plate should be kept clean. Do not put the inner pot on other heat sources. Do not replace the inner pot with other containers.
DO NOT attempt to move the pressure cooker while it is cooking; wait until it cools down to move it. Move the unit using the built-in handle; do not try to hold the pressure cooker from the lid handles.
DO NOT disassemble the unit on your own or use replacement parts
from dierent brands.
• Make sure pressure completely discharges after cooking has
nished and before
opening the lid.
• Clean and properly place the water collection cup before each use.
• You may experience some smoke coming out the unit during the
rst few uses due to
the initial heating of the materials; this is normal.
• Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow it to cool before putting
on or taking o parts.
DO NOT let power cord hang over the edges of tables or counters, or touch hot surfaces.
• A short power supply cord is provided to reduce injuries resulting from entanglement and tripping. If an extension cord is used, the electrical rating of the cord must be at least 120V/20A. The extension cord must be arranged so that it will not hang over the edge of a table or counter where it can be pulled or accidentally tripped over.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
DO NOT use any other lid.
DO NOT touch the lid or stainless
steel surface while heating or
cooking.
When moving the unit, hold the
pressure cooker by its handles.
Keep out of reach of infants and
young children.
NOTE:
This appliance has a three-
prong grounding plug. To reduce the risk of electric
shock, this plug will only t one
way into a grounded electrical outlet that is easily accessible. DO NOT attempt to modify the plug in anyway if it does
not t into the outlet.

2. Place ingredients into the inner pot. Ingredients and water/
liquid should not exceed ⅘
height of the inner pot. If the ingredients expand easily in water, then the total amount
should not exceed ⅗ height of
the inner pot.
PREPARING TO COOK
NOTE:
• Thoroughly wash the inner pot before each use.
• The minimum amount of ingredients needed to cook in the
pressure cooker is ⅕ of the capacity
of the inner pot.
• The minimum amount of liquid needed for cooking is 4 cups/1000 mL. (This may vary depending on the recipe you are following.)
3. Place the inner pot into the housing; make sure the bottom of the pot is dry.
4. Make sure the silicone sealing ring is secured. Place the lid back onto the pressure cooker, and turn it clockwise to lock it in place.
