REGULATING AND SAFETY VALVES:
Place the pressure regulating valve (3) in position ,
remove all pieces and clean each piece (FIG. 7e) as
instructed. This valve contains 4 pieces: the upper cap,
the spring, the silicone cylinder cover and the inner
plastic limit. For cleaning them you have to dismantle
the 4 pieces, wash them with warm water and mild
washing soap. Dry and assemble the pressure valve
again. For assembling, take the upper cap, put the spring
just in the inner inside, introduce the upper edge of the
spring in the wide plastic base and finally fit the silicone
cylinder cover. Push smoothly the central plastic limit to
check that the system flex correctly.
Loose the Safety valve (7) with an appropriate tool
(FIG. 7f) and clean as instructed, return all pieces to
the pressure cooker, without forgetting any small
parts.
ATTENTION:
DUE TO USE, THE PRESSURE COOKER STARTS LOSING STEAM AND
DOES NOT REACH ENOUGH PRESSURE. FOR BETTER RESULTS,THE
RUBBER GASKET SHOULD BE REPLACED APROXIMATELY EVERY TWO
YEARS.
ATTENTION:
COOKER IN THE DISHWASHER.
Never remove stains or baked-in marks with abrasive tools such as knives, steel, wool or
copper cloths. Instead, soak it with hot water with a little bit of detergent until stains can
be easily removed with a soft brush, sponge or cloth.
Do not use any corrosive agents like bleach (not even dilute in water) for cleaning.
Remove obstinate calcium stains (white spots) with a few drops of vinegar or lemon juice.
If it is difficult to turn the lid for closing, then apply a light film of cooking oil to the rubber gasket.
When storing, DO NOT LOCK THE LID IN PLACE. Simply place the lid upside-down on
the pot, so that the rubber gasket inside the lid remains unstressed and free of deformation.
THE RUBBER GASKET IS CONSIDERED WORN WHEN,
DO NOT CLEAN ANY PART OF THE PRESSURE
