During cooking
• Once the operating valve (A) starts to continually release steam and a regular hissing sound can be heard, cooking has started. Reduce the heat setting.
• Set a timer for the cooking time stated in your recipe.
• Once the cooking time is up, turn off the heat.
Finishing cooking
To release the steam
• Once the heat is turned off, you have two options:
• Slow pressure release: gradually turn the operating valve
(A) to the position. Make sure that the cooker is positioned so that the steam is directed away from you. Once the pressure indicator (D) drops down: your pressure cooker is no longer under pressure. This is used for stews, ve-
• getables, meat joints and fish dishes.
Fast pressure release:
place your pressure cooker under cold running water, directing the flow onto the metal part of the lid. Once the pressure indicator (D) drops down: your pressure cooker is no longer under pressure. Turn the operating valve (A) to the position. This is used for soups, rice, pasta, milk puddings, egg custards, cake and pudding mixes, recipes containing rice or pasta and recipes with a high liquid content. If in doubt, use the fast pressure release method.
• Now you can open it.
If food or liquid starts to spray out from from the valve while you are releasing the steam, turn it back to position and switch off the heat, wait a few minutes and then gradually turn the operating valve to the position, making sure nothing else spurts out.
Cleaning and maintenance
Browning and scratching that may appear following long periods of use are normal and will not affect the performance of the pressure cooker

Safety
Your pressure cooker is provided with a number of safety mechanisms:
•
Closure safety:
- If the appliance is not properly closed, the pressure indicator cannot rise and therefore the pressure cooker will never come up to pressure.
•
Opening safety:
- While the pressure cooker is under pressure, the opening knob cannot be activated. Never force the pressure cooker open. Never tamper with the pressure indicator. Always make sure that the pressure inside the pressure cooker has been released.
• Two excess pressure safety features:
- First feature: the safety valve (C) releases pressure and the steam will escape horizontally from the top of the lid
- Fig 13
- Second feature: the seal (I) lets steam escape vertically from the side of the lid
- Fig 14
If one of the two excess pressure safety systems is triggered:
• Turn off the heat.
• Allow the pressure cooker to cool down completely.
• Open it.
• Check and clean the operating valve (A), the operating valve seat and pipe (B), the safety valve (C) and the seal
(I).

Golden rules when pressure cooking
(for UK Consumers)
• The minimum quantity of liquid required for normal cooking is 250 ml (½ pint) for the first ¼ hour cooking. For each additional ¼ hour, or part of ¼ hour, add a further 150 ml (¼ pint) of liquid. For example, 45 minutes cooking requires 600 ml (1 pint) of liquid. Note: This is only a general guide. Certain foods, such as rice, pulses, steamed puddings and Christmas puddings may require extra water (see text below).
• When steaming foods in the basket use a minimum of 750 ml (1¼ pint) water in the cooker.
• Always use a liquid that gives off steam when boiled e.g. water stock, wine, beer, cider, or milk. Never use oil or fat. All pressure cooking requires some liquid.
• Whatever the size of pressure cooker, the maximum filling level when all the ingredients and liquid have been added are:
Solid foods e.g. vegetables, meat joints: no more than two-thirds full
Liquids and cereals e.g. soups, stews, rice, cereal and pasta: no more than half full
Pulses e.g. dried beans and dried peas: no more than one-third full
• When cooking pulses they swell up and tend to froth up. Use 1.2 litres (2 pints) water for every 450 g (1 lb) pre-soaked weight of pulses. Remember all dried peas and dried beans, must be soaked in boiling water for 1 hour before cooking. Drain, rinse thoroughly and cook in fresh water. Never eat uncooked beans or peas. Soaking is not necessary for red lentils. The high temperatures achieved in the pressure cooker ensure that any natural toxins in the pulses are destroyed. Canned beans and pulses can simply be drained and rinsed before adding to the pressure cooker.
• For steamed suet puddings, sponge puddings or Christmas puddings, a short pre-steaming time is best to enable the raising agent to activate and prevent a heavy, close texture. Extra liquid is required so use a minimum of 1½ pint/900 ml of boiling water for a combined steaming and cooking time of up to 1 hour. For each additional ¼ hour of cooking, or part of ¼ hour, add a further ¼ pint/150 ml of boiling water. Pre-steaming is done with the operating valve in the steam release position on a low heat for the required time. Then turn the operating valve to either 1 or 2, and increase the heat to bring to full pressure. Lower the heat and pressure cook for the required time. Pressure 1 operates at 7 lb (7 psi) and pressure 2 at 12 lb (12 psi)
• Never cook dumplings with the lid tightly closed, as they could rise up and block the safety devices. Cook the stew and at the end of cooking, release the steam and cook gently for about 10 - 15 minutes without the lid on.
• Pressure cooking times vary according to the size of individual pieces or thickness of the food, not the weight.
• To prevent discolouration of the interior, caused by mineral deposits in hard water areas, add a tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar.
• Cooking containers must withstand temperatures of 130°C (250°F). Any covering on containers, e.g. foil, greaseproof paper or cling film, must be securely tied otherwise they could block the safety devices. Do not use plastic lids as they prevent steam from being in contact with the food. Also, they could distort and come off during cooking which could block the safety outlets.
• Accurate timing is essential when pressure cooking to prevent overcooking, especially with vegetables, fruit and fish.
