Aperture in the rim of the lid
If the operating valve and the safety valve become clogged at once and the pressure cooker is not removed
from the heat in time, the pressure in the pressure cooker pushes the silicone seal through the aperture in
the rim of the lid, which causes an immediate drop in pressure and steam release.
Warning! When cooking with the pressure cooker, make sure that the aperture in the rim of
the lid is not directed towards individuals coming near the pressure cooker.
IF THE SILICONE SEAL IS PUSHED THROUGH THE APERTURE IN THE RIM OF THE LID, DO NOT REPAIR THE
PRESSURE COOKER YOURSELF; INSTEAD BRING IT IN FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICING.
Lock against accidental opening
Prevents accidental opening of the pressure cooker until all steam has escaped from the vessel and pressure
drops entirely.
GREEN CONTROL pressure indicator
The GREEN CONTROL pressure intensity indicator uses white and green rings to show the current pressure
in the vessel. If the indicator is inserted in the handle of the lid, there is no operating pressure in the vessel.
If the pressure intensity indicator shows a red ring, the operating pressure in the vessel is higher than
permitted; in that case, immediately reduce the heat output to minimum and if the red ring remains in the
upper position even after reducing the heat output, immediately turn off the heat source and remove the
pressure cooker from the heat.

PRACTICAL HINTS

ALWAYS USE AN APPROPRIATE SIZE OF COOKING RANGE OR FLAME FOR COOKING.
The diameter of the cooking range must be identical or smaller than the diameter of the bottom of the
pressure cooker! Flame must never expand beyond the bottom of the pressure cooker. Use the dispenser
net or cooking range when cooking on gas.
Make use of the heat retaining properties of the three-layer sandwich bottom. Switch the heat off in
advance before the end of cooking. Thanks to the three-layer sandwich bottom, the accumulated heat
energy is transferred into the pressure cooker even after the heat has been switched off .
The vessel of the pressure cooker may also be used without the lid as a traditional pot for cooking meals
on the cooking range.
STORAGE, MAINTENANCE and CLEANING
Lid
DO NOT WASH THE LID OF THE PRESSURE COOKER IN A DISHWASHER.
Clean the operating valve aperture by fl ushing it with running water or clean it using a suitable object.
Clean the safety valve by repeatedly pushing on the centre and lightly pulling the entire valve upwards
under running water.
Do not disassemble the operating valve, the safety valve, the grips or any other parts of the lid.
ALWAYS STORE THE PRESSURE COOKER WITH THE LID UNATTACHED.
Vessel
THE VESSEL OF THE PRESSURE COOKER IS DISHWASHER SAFE.
Should white stains due to scale formation appear inside the pressure cooker, use vinegar, lemon drops or
