This appliance cooks under pressure. Im
proper use may result in a scalding injury.
Make certain the unit is properly closed before operating. See “Standard Operating Procedure”.
Do not ll the unit over 2/3 full. When cook-
•
ing foods that expand during cooking such
as rice or dried vegetables, do not ll the
unit over 1/2 full. Over lling may cause a
risk of clogging the vent pipe and developing excess pressure. See “General Pressure
Cooking Guidelines”.
Do not use this pressure cooker for pressure
•
frying with oil.
When the normal operating pressure is
•
reached, turn the heat down so all the liquid,
which creates the steam, does not evaporate.
•

• Do not lift the unit with cover handle, use
side handles only.
The pressure cooker must never be used
•
without liquid.
• Always check the pressure release devices
for clogging before use.
• Do not open the pressure cooker until the
unit has cooled and all internal pressure has
been released. If the handles are difcult to
push apart, this indicates that the cooker is
still pressurized – do not force it open. Any
pressure in the cooker can be hazardous. See
“Standard Operating Procedure”.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
CAUTION!
•
A short detachable power-supply cord should be
used to reduce the risks resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Longer detachable power-supply cords or
•
extension cords are available and may be
used if care is exercised in their use.
7
7
•
If a longer detachable power-supply cord or
extension cord is used:
• The marked electrical rating of the cord set
or extension cord should be at least as great
as the electrical rating of the appliance. Us-
ing different voltage may result in a re or
other accident, causing the device damage
or shorting the circuit.
• The cord should be arranged so that it will
not drape over the countertop or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or

I. PRIOR TO FIRST USE
Carefully unpack the device, remove all packaging and stickers except the
one with the unit’s serial number. The absence of the serial number will
deprive you of your warranty benets. Wipe all interior and exterior surfaces of the appliance with a soft, damp cloth. Wash the bowl in warm
soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Odor on rst use of the appliance
is normal. In such a case, clean the device.
CAUTION! Do not use the appliance in case of any malfunctions.
After transporting or storing at low temperatures allow the appliance to
stay at room temperature for at least 2 hours before using
II. OPERATING THE ELECTRIC PRESSURE
COOKER
Before Use
Place the device on a at, stable, and hard surface away from wallpaper,
decorative coatings, or any other objects or cabinets that could be damaged by steam, humidity, or high temperatures.
Before operating, make sure that the outer and inner parts of the Electric
Pressure Cooker have no dents, cracks or any other visible damages. There
should not be any obstructions between the heating element and the
bowl.
Opening/Closing the Lid
The removable lid hermetically seals the device which is extremely important for proper operation.
Holding the lid by the handle, place it on the device ensuring that the
steam release valve is on the opposite side of the display.
Without pushing the lid, gently rotate it counterclockwise, holding it by
the handle, until it slides into the corresponding slots on the housing (by
20-30°). The lid must be positioned evenly.
Secure the lid by turning it rmly counterclockwise.

Caution! Do not try to force the lid open. The lid locks automatically when
pressure builds up inside the chamber. If the appliance is difcult to open,
adjust the steam release valve to reduce the pressure.
It is recommended to saute foods with an open lid. If the recipe calls for
the closed lid, simply cover the appliance with the lid, without locking it.
Steam Release Valve
The steam release valve is located on the lid. Select one of the 2 positions
depending on the desired method. If the valve is in:
• CLOSE position – the appliance cooks under high pressure (pressure
cooker mode);
OPEN position – the appliance cooks under normal pressure
•
(multicooker mode).
When cooking dishes that do not require a lot of liquid (rice, stews, etc.),
the steam release valve can be opened right after the cycle is complete.
When pressure cooking liquids (soup, puree, etc.) let the device cool down
for 5-10 minutes before opening the valve to avoid contents venting
through the steam outlet.
CAUTION! Opening the steam release valve during or after use may cause
a powerful vertical burst of steam. Please, be careful!
General Pressure Cooking Guidelines
The closed position of the steam release valve causes the device to form a
hermetic airtight environment where high pressure is being built up and maintained. The device automatically locks the lid when the pressure rises. The Electric Pressure Cooker REDMOND RMC-PM4506A is equipped with a multilevel
safety protection system. In case the temperature or pressure inside the chamber exceeds the safety limits, the system automatically interrupts the process.
When characteristics get back to normal the cooking process is resumed. In
case the pressure or temperature do not normalize within a certain time period,
a special safety feature disconnects the power and stops the operation.
Caution! Use at least 2 measuring cups of water or other liquid when
pressure cooking.
Do not fry food with oil under pressure. Instead, sauté chopped vegetables
in a small amount of oil with the open lid.
Do not ll the appliance with foods and liquids over 2/3 full. When
cooking foods that can foam or expand during cooking (pasta, rice, beans,
spinach, etc.) — over 1/2 full.
TIME DELAY Function
The function enables the appliance to delay a program for a period of time
30 minutes to 24 hours in 30 minute intervals.

2. A few seconds after the settings are entered the timer starts to count
down.
3. Press REHEAT/CANCEL to cancel the settings.
4.
When setting the TIME DELAY function, remember that a program and
the countdown start only after the device reaches the required pressure
and temperature.
Do not use the TIME DELAY function for perishable food, such as eggs,
milk, meat, cheese, sh, etc.
The SAUTE program cannot be delayed.
KEEP WARM Function
The function keeps the cooked dish warm at 140–175°F (60–80°С) for up
to 8 hours. When the cooking cycle is complete, the device produces an
audible signal, the REHEAT/CANCEL button indicator lights up. The device
automatically switches to KEEP WARM displaying progress in 1 minute
increments. Press REHEAT/CANCEL to disable the function. The button
indicator goes off and the appliance enters standby.
