• When cooking foods under pressure, at least 1 cup (8 oz) of liquid should
be used.

• Foods such as apple sauce, cranberries, pearl barley, oatmeal or other

blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one
way, as a safety feature. Reverse the plug if the plug does not fit fully in the
