4 Using the electric pressure cooker

Before using the electric pressure cooker to cook food, you need to follow below preparations:

1 Hold the lid handle and turn it clockwise until the top lid cannot move any more, then lift up the top lid.
2 Take out the inner pot from the electric pressure cooker and put the prewashed food in the inner pot.
3 Put the inner pot back into the electric pressure cooker.
4 Place the top lid onto the electric pressure cooker and turn it anti- clockwise. You will hear a “click” sound when the top lid is properly locked.
5 Turn the pressure control valve to the “Cooking with pressure” position ( Cozinhar com pressão ).

Note

• To braise, fry or bake food, turn the pressure control valve to the “Cooking without pressure” position ( Cozinhar sem pressão ).

• Make sure the sealing ring is properly assembled around the inside of the top lid.

• Make sure the pressure regulator valve and floating valve are clean and not blocked.

• Make sure the outside of the inner pot is dry and clean, and that there is no foreign residue on the heating element or the magnetic switch.

• Make sure the inner pot is in proper contact with the heating element.

Cooking food

Note

• Do not fill the inner pot with less than 1/3 or more than 2/3 full of food and liquid.
• For food that expands during cooking, do not fill the inner pot with more than 1/2 full of food and liquid.
• For rice cooking, follow the water level indications on the inside of the inner pot. You can adjust the water level for different types of rice and your own preference. Do not exceed the quantities indicated on the inside of the inner pot.
• Make sure the floater falls down before cooking.

1 Follow the preparation steps in “Using the electric pressure cooker”.
2 Put the plug in the power socket.
The “Heating” indicator ( Aquecimento ) lights up.
The electric pressure cooker starts heating and pressurizing.
3 Turn the control knob clockwise to choose the pressure keeping time.
4 When the electric pressure cooker reaches the working pressure, the Heating indicator ( Aquecimento ) turns off and the Keep Pressure/Keep warm indicator ( ) lights up in the color of orange.
The electric pressure cooker enters pressure keeping mode.
5 When the pressure keeping time has elapsed, the control knob will be at the Off position ( Desligado ), and the electric pressure cooker automatically switches to keep warm mode.
The Keep pressure/Keep warm indicator ( ) changes its color from orange to green.
6 Turn the pressure regulator valve to the “Release pressure” position ( ).
The electric pressure cooker starts releasing pressure.
The floater drops when the pressure is released sufficiently.
7 Hold the top lid handle and turn the lid clockwise until it cannot move any more, then lift it up.

Note

• When cooking soup or viscous liquid, do not release pressure by turning the pressure regulator valve to the steam vent position, otherwise liquid might spurt from the pressure control valve. Wait until the pressure is naturally released and the floater has dropped to open the top lid.
• Once the pressure cooker is on, turn the control knob and set the pressure keeping time. This is to avoid the pressure cooker to automatically switch to keep warm mode after heating.
• The pressure keeping timer will start counting when the working pressure is reached.
• After the cooking is finished and the pressure is released, unplug the electric pressure cooker to turn off the keep warm function or when not in use.

Tip

• Choose the desired pressure keeping time according to the time indications on the control panel. You can also adjust the pressure keeping time for different types of food and your preference.
