The following safety measures should always be abided when using the pressure cooker:

2. Never place the pressure cooker on or near electric burners or gas, or in an oven while it is on.

3. Use on counter-tops only.

4. Only use the pressure cooker for its designated use.

5. Do not attempt to pressure fry or deep fry with oil in the pressure cooker.

6. Make sure that the cord does not touch hot surfaces or hang over the counter or table.

7. Only use the cooker in 110-120V~/60Hz electrical systems (for North America).

8. Never operate the cooker if the cord or plug is damaged. If the cooker is malfunctioning

or compromised in any way, do not use again until it is repaired.

9. Only open the cooker after it has cooled down and all the pressure has been released.
The float valve will drop, and the lid will turn easily when this happens. Never force the lid open.
Please refer to “Get Started,” on pages 11-13.

10. The amount of food and liquid in the inner pot should never pass the 2/3 line prior to
cooking. Beans, rice, vegetables or any other foods that expand during the cooking

process, should not be added past the 1/2 line. If overfilled, steam cannot be released

properly, and the cooker can become overly pressurized. This can damage the cooker

and cause burns and injuries to the user. Note that these fill level warnings only apply

to pressurized cooking programs.

11. For all pressure cooking programs, keep the steam release handle
in the Sealing position.

12. Not for use by or near children or by individuals with impairments which may limit their
ability to operate pressure cookers, or by those who have not been educated on their
proper use.

13. To avoid electrical shock, never immerse the cord, power plug, cooker base in any
liquid.

14. Connect the plug to the cooker before plugging the cable into the wall. To disconnect,
switch all controls OFF and then remove the plug from the wall. Keep the cooker
unplugged whenever you are not using it and during cleaning. Give the cooker time to
cool down prior to removing or putting parts on, and cleaning.

15. Do not use outside.

16. Use great caution if moving cooker with hot liquids inside.

17. Warning: Failure to follow instructions during use could result in serious burns. Always

ensure that the lid is securely closed before cooking. Only cook food in removable containers
to avoid electric shock. Refer to “Getting Started” on pages 11-13 for more information.

18. Utilizing accessories or replacement parts not branded or recommended by the Duopro
Plus ® company puts the cooker at risk of malfunctioning. Duopro Plus® inner pots
provide optimal results, whereas pots from other brands might not match up with

the heating element.

19. Particular foods, including cranberries, rhubarb, pearl barley, applesauce, oatmeal,
cereals, split peas and pasta can plug up the steam release valve. Avoid using pressure
cooking settings when cooking these foods except if directed to do so in Duopro
Plus® cooker recipes.

20. Inspect the steam release and float valves as well as the anti-block shield

before cooking to make sure they are not clogged.

Never place unprotected or bare skin over the steam release
valve when the cooker is operating or releasing pressure.

Never pick up or move the
cooker when it is on.

Wait until the float valve is DOWN before opening the lid. Never
force the lid open if the float valve is UP.

WARNING: Contact with spilled food can cause severe burns. Do not let children come near the
cooker or cord when in use. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the counter, connect it to
an extension cord or use an outlet that is under the counter.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR SPECIAL CORD SET

Under UL safety regulations, a power supply cord of 0.6m to 0.9m with a three-pronged
grounding plug is included with your cooker, to help minimize the risk of tripping and
entanglement. Plug the cord into a grounded electrical outlet that is easy to access, to reduce the
