Several safety systems ensure that your
pressure cooker will function safely,
even in the event of a technical fault.
The pressure regulator 3 ensures the
pressure remains constant within the
pressure cooker. It is possible that some
steam may continuously escape during
use. The safety valve 5 releases any ex-
cess pressure if the pressure regulator 3
malfunctions. If the pressure regulator 3
and the safety valve 5 both malfunction,
excess pressure will escape through
the safety opening 2, which arches the
gasket and thereby creating an open-
ing. The lock 6 can only be slid forwards
to open the pot when the pressure has
been equalised and the red safety valve
5 drops down as a result.
General safety advice
─
Be sure to check before every use that
the pressure regulator 3 and the safety
valve 5 are manoeuvrable and not
blocked up (see section "Instructions for
use").
─
Always ensure that the pressure cooker
is closed correctly before putting it on
the hob (see section "Instructions for
use").
─
The pressure regulator 3 should never
be covered by any objects.
Always ensure the safety opening 2 is
─
facing away from you during use and
that it is not facing where others may
pass by. In the event of a fault, a lot of
steam will escape.
─
Should steam escape from the safety
valve 5 or the safety opening 2, im-
mediately turn off the heat supply as
the pressure inside the pressure cooker
is too high. Do not continue to use the
pressure cooker until the problem has
been corrected (see section "Trouble-
shooting").
─
To avoid damaging the pressure cooker,
you should ensure that the pot always
contains at least 0.25 litres of liquid, so
that sufficient steam can be produced
and the pressure cooker doesn't over-
heat and boil dry.
─
WARNING: Repairs to the pressure
cooker may only be made by an author-
ised professional.
Good to know
─
The pressure cooker is suitable for use
on all types of hobs, including induction
hobs.
─
The pressure cooker can be used as a
traditional pot (without the lid) to brown
food before pressure cooking.
─
By placing the pressure cooker on a hob
with the same or a smaller diameter you
can save energy.
─
Always lift the pressure cooker when
moving it on a glass ceramic hob to
avoid the risk of scratching the hob.
─
Bear in mind that the pressure cooker
gets hot during use. Always handle with
pot holders.
─
Never let the pressure cooker boil dry,
this would seriously damage it.
─
The pressure cooker is designed ex-
clusively for cooking, not for storing
food. Food that is stored in the pressure
cooker for a longer period may affect the
surface and take on the taste of metal.
─
When the pressure cooker is used on a
gas hob make certain the flames do not
touch the handles.
5. Instructions for use
Before each use
Before cooking with the pressure cooker,
you should check all the safety functions to
avoid causing any damage to the pressure
cooker.
1. Check that the openings for the pressure
regulator 3 on the inside of the lid are
clean.
2. Should this not be the case, clean
the pressure regulator 3 (see section
"Cleaning and storing").
3. Check that the safety valve 5 is movable
and not stuck.
4. Check that the gasket 8 is not damaged
in any way, i.e. that it is not split.
Note! Over time the gasket can become
hard and will therefore no longer provide
an air-tight seal. This will lead to steam
escaping from the rim of the lid and the
gasket will therefore require replacing.
For replacement gaskets, please contact
your nearest IKEA Store/ Customer ser-
vice or visit www.ikea.com.
