WHEN USING THE ULTRAPOT PRESSURE COOKER,
BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED.

The UltraPot cooks under pressure. Improper use may result in scalding injury
to your body if exposed to steam.

KEEP AWAY from the steam when releasing pressure or when opening the lid.

DO NOT open the pressure cooker until the unit has cooled and all internal

pressure has been released. If the handles are difcult to push apart, this
indicates that the cooker is still pressurized – do not open it by force. Any
pressure in the cooker can be hazardous.

The appliance is for household and noncommercial use ONLY. Keep away from
children.

For countertop use ONLY. DO NOT place on or near a hot gas or electric
burner, or in a heated oven, and DO NOT move it while working.

Never use it without the INNER POT. Make sure the contact surface between
the Inner Pot and the Electronic Heater is always clean.

Turn the lid counterclockwise until you reach Close Lid position. A clamping
sound should be heard.
ALWAYS check if the lid is locked in place before pressure cooking.

COOKING POT / INNER POT MAKINGS

Inside the removable cooking pot, there are two sets of markings. Side, marked with "2/3
MAX PRESSURE COOK", indicates the maximum ll line when cooking any food, other

than rice in the pressure cooker. The other marking is MAX RICE CUP and is used when
cooking rice. When pressure cooking rice, never ll the pressure cooker with water past the
6 cup marking.

To start cooking your food, open the lid, remove
cooking pot from pressure cooker and add food
and liquids.

NOTE: The total volume of food and liquid must
not exceed 2/3 of the capacity of the cooking pot.

The total volume, for foods such as dried vegeta­bles, beans, or rice and grains, must not exceed
1/2 the capacity.

Overlling may clog the pressure limit valve, which
can cause excess pressure to develop. Always use at
least ½ cup liquid when pressure cooking.

WARNING: To avoid a serious burn injury when

cooking foods other than rice, never exceed the 2/3
MAX PRESSURE COOK mark of the combined

volume of liquids and solids. Be certain the inner
receptacle, where the heating plate is located, is
clean and dry before inserting the Inner Pot into the
pressure cooker and adjust the pot left and right to
ensure optimal contact between the Inner Pot and
the heating plate.

SEAFOOD

• Cooking times may vary according to the type of seafood being cooked.

• Cook seafood on a cooking rack with a trivet on the bottom of the pot (if avail-

able), and add at least 3/4 cup of liquid. Lightly grease cooking rack with vegeta­ble oil when cooking sh.

VEGETABLE

• Always cook with at least 1-2 cups of liquid.

• Add 1-2 additional minutes to cooking time when preparing frozen vegetables.

• Use the quick release method at the end of cooking cycle to avoid over-cooking.

*Split peas, applesauce, cranberries and rhubarb can foam, froth, and sputter, and can
clog the pressure release device (steam vent). These foods should not be cooked in a
pressure cooker.

RISE & GRAINS

Before cooking, soak certain grains, such as wheat berries and pearl barley in four times their
volume of lukewarm water for at least four (4) hours or overnight if required. Do not soak rice. Do
not add salt to water, since it may toughen the grains and inhibit hydration. Rice and grains are
best slightly undercooked if they are to be added to soups or casseroles. Oil or butter must be
added to prevent foaming.

*Pear barleyy, oatmeal or other cereals can foam, froth, and sputter and can cog the pressure
release device (steam vent). These foods should not be cooked in a pressure cooker.

*Cups referenced are with the included "rice measuring cup."

Rice

Use this method for cooking long-grain or basmati rice. The texture will be more moist and slightly
stickier than stovetop rice, more like rice from a rice cooker or Asian restaurants. The butter or oil
are to prevent foaming. Salt is optional to taste (you may wish to omit salt completely if using a
purchased broth).

White rice is cooked by selecting the RICE function and using Natural Release.

DRIED BEANS

AND OTHER LEGUMES

• Before cooking dried beans, pick over and discard any broken or shriveled beans or bits of

dirt and debris. Rinse beans and drain.

• Beans may be soaked overnight, but the pressure cooker allows you to cook beans without

presoaking.

• Onions, garlic, celery, springs of fresh herbs or a bay leaf may be added for additional

avoring. Do not salt before cooking as salt inhibits cooking.

• Never cook more than 2 cups of beans per batch (2 cups of beans + 8 cups of water +

seasonings + onion, garlic, herbs to taste + 4 tsp oil).

• Add 2 tsp oil per cup of beans to prevent foaming.

• After cooking beans, clean lid, gasket, pressure limiting valve, and oat valve carefully.

• Use natural pressure release when cooking beans.

• Cooking times may vary according to the quality of the beans or other legumes (this is

partially dependent on the age of the dried beans, something you have no control over). If still
hard after recommended cooking times, continue cooking uncovered. Add additional water, if
necessary.
