1 Warning: To avoid accidents, never open your TRAMONTINA VÂLENCIA BLACK
PRESSURE COOKER without first releasing all the pressure inside.
2 Place food inside the cooker first and never fill the cooker beyond the water levels
indicated inside the pot.
3 Due to the condensation of excess steam, water drops might form on the lid and the
handles.
4 Check on the cooker regularly while in use, especially the pressure indicator system.
5 Do not bang the edge of your cooker with kitchen utensils as this might damage the
ceramic finish and weaken the cooker's perfect seal.
6 The pressure cooker should never be used without water, as this may damage the
silicone ring and break the safety valves. In addition, overheating the pot can damage
the cooker's bottom, interfering with its operation. Use of the cooker under these
conditions is not recommended.
7 After taking the pressure cooker off the stovetop, do not force open the lid. Check the
cooling procedure according to page 24.
8 When storing your pressure cooker, place the lid upside down on the pot. Do not store
with the lid closed.
9 Do not rub the locking tabs on the lid excessively to avoid wearing them out.
10 During use, screws might come loose due to changes in temperature. If this happens,
retighten them with a Phillips screwdriver.
11 Do not use the cooker if any parts are damaged.
12 Avoid accidents by using Tramontina original parts when replacing valves and other
parts of your cooker. The use of non-original parts or parts for other models will result
in loss of the warranty as well as causing the product to function incorrectly, which
can result in accidents.
