While cooking

Be sure to monitor the pressure cooker if there are children present.
• Set cooking times according to the "cooking guide" included in the
instructions book (Cooking times will vary depending on the size and
thickness of the food. Adjust cooking times, as needed, to make sure
foods are thoroughly cooked).
• A light steaming leaving through the operating valve while using the
cooker in the cooking process is considered as normal.
• While pressure cooking, verify that a little bit of steam leaves regularly
through the operating valve. If this does not occur, increase the heat
source lightly in order to maintain the pressure inside. If the opposite
occurs, if a large amount of steam leaves, lower the heat source.
• When the cooking time has finished, turn off the stove.
If one of the safety systems starts operating:
• Immediately turn off the heat source.
• Let the pressure cooker cool down.
• Verify the operating valve (for safety reasons, perform this cooker
depressurization process before carrying out the verifications).
If the steam leaves through the edges of the pressure cooker's lid,
verify that:
• The cooker is properly closed.
• The silicone gasket is in good conditions and replace it if necessary.
• The silicone gasket is correctly positioned under the pressure cooker
lid.
• That the lid, the safety valve and the operating valve are clean.
• The edges of the pressure cooker body are not damaged.

Cooking times (guidance)
The cooking times must be counted from the moment that the pressure
cooker reaches the selected pressure, which is occurs when the working valve
indicator reaches the desired cooking pressure and the steaming begins.
