Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a Fagor Pressure
Cooker. We appreciate the confidence you
have placed in our company by selecting
one of our many pressure cookers. We are
confident that the pressure cooker will give
you many years of excellent service.
Surrounded by endless myths, pressure
cookers are probably the least understood
of cookware. This is unfortunate since
pressure cookers provide many advantages
over traditional cooking. First and foremost,
most foods can be cooked in a fraction of
the time, in most cases up to one third of
the time. Since the food is being cooked
for such a shorter period, it is less likely
to lose its color and flavor, as well as vital
minerals and vitamins that are normally
evaporated or diluted when cooking in
large quantities of water, for longer periods
of time. Made from high-quality, heavy-
gauge stainless steel, Fagor pressure
cookers are manufactured and designed
with a concern for function and safety,
meeting all international safety standards.
Fagor's easy-to-use pressure regulators
make it simpler than ever to determine
the proper amount of pressure and how
to maintain it. The pressure release valves
signal when to lower or raise the burner
heat in order to maintain the desired level
of pressure. We know that once you
begin using your Fagor Pressure Cooker,
you'll understand why it is the single most
important piece of cookware you'll ever
own.

Today people are more conscious of the
food and products they consume that
affect the environment. Fagor recognizes
consumer demand for more eco-friendly
products and manufacturing processes.
Fagor pressure cookers are made of
partially recycled stainless steel and are
polished using only mechanical procedures
instead of chemical. In addition to being
manufactured in a more environmentally
respectful way, pressure cookers save
you energy in the kitchen too. Compared
to traditional cooking methods, cooking
with a pressure cooker saves up to 70%
cooking time. And less time spent cooking
means less energy used, and less heat
produced in the kitchen. Also, cooking at
high temperatures and high speed retains
essential vitamins and nutrients, bringing
you healthier meals. Using Fagor pressure
cookers will not only make a difference in
your health, but a difference in our world.
This may be the most efficient piece of
cookware in your kitchen.
Before you begin cooking, it is important
that you read this detailed user's manual

Pressure Cooker so that you will be able
