3) Compared with other type of products, this cooker is safer cooking tool. It is equipped
with some protective devices:
- Cover protective device: If the contact of the pot cover and the inner pot is not good
enough, the inner pot will not form high pressure; under high pressure, the pot cover will
be unable to be opened.
- Pressure regulator: if the pressure (temperature) control circuit fails and the pressure
inside the pot exceeds the maximum allowable value, the relief valve will automatically
start to ensure the safety of the device.
- Discharge pressure component: if the pressure regulator has a fault and the pressure
inside the pot exceeds the maximum allowable value, this component will discharge air
along the edge of the pot cover to reduce the pressure and prevent exploding.
- Temperature limit component: if the inner pot is empty, or the temperature exceeds
the limit in the course of cooking, the pressure cooker will automatically turn off.
Instructions for use
1. Open the pot cover. Hold the handle, rotate it clockwise and then lift the pot cover
(figure 1).
2. Before using, use warm water to clean the inner pot. The total volume of food and
water in the pot should not exceed 3/5 of the height of the inner pot. If you want to use
more hard food (chicken or mutton) with less water, the total volume should not exceed
4/5 of the height of the inner pot. The minimum volume of food should not be less than
1/5 of the height of the inner pot (figure 2).
When steaming rice, the amount of rice should not exceed 12 cups of rice. Under normal
conditions, when steaming rice, one cup of rice should be matched with one cup of wa-
ter. The ratio can be adjusted according to personal preference.
3. Before cooking, clean up the inner pot and heating plate to ensure that they have no
dirt. Slightly rotate the inner pot to make it fit the heating plate (figure 3).
4. Cover the lid. Ensure that the silicone gasket on the pressure cooker has no damage
and ensure that the internal aluminum plate can rotate freely. Cover the lid, and turn the
handle anticlockwise until you can hear the sound of jamming (figure 4).
5. Tear off the silver label attached on the discharge pressure valve to ensure that the
valve can be put down and is able to move freely (figure 5).
