-
Risk of Electric Shock. Cook only in the removable container.
-
This appliance cooks under pressure. Improper use may result in scalding injury. Make certain the unit is properly closed before operating. See “General Operating Instructions.”
-
Do not fill the unit over the MAX LINE marked in the inner pot. When cooking foods that expand during cooking such as rice, beans, or dried vegetables, do not fill the unit over 1/2 (half) full. See “General Operating Instructions”. Overfilling the pressure cooker may cause clogging, which builds up excess pressure inside and may be dangerous.
-
It is not recommended to cook foods such as applesauce, cranberries, pearl barley, oatmeal or other cereals, split peas, noodles, macaroni, rhubarb, or spaghetti. These foods tend to foam, froth and sputter and may block the pressure release device (exhaust vent). Recipes that use any of these ingredients must be carefully followed to avoid problems.
-
Always check the pressure release devices for clogging before use. Always make sure that the exhaust valve is installed correctly before use. Incorrect assembly may prevent the pressure cooker to build up pressure or allow steam to come out from the sides of the lid. See “Product Features” and “General Operating Instructions”.
-
Do not use this pressure cooker for pressure frying with oil.
-
DO NOT open the pressure cooker until it has cooled off and all internal pressure has been released. If the pressure cooker is difficult to open, this indicates that the pressure cooker is still pressurized.
-
NEVER force the pressure cooker open. Any pressure built up in the cooker can be hazardous. If you need to open the lid, refer to the instructions in section “Opening the Lid” and follow them carefully. Always and most importantly if you follow the Quick Pressure release method, protect your skin from any contact with escaping steam. Once all the pressure has been released, lift the lid carefully away from you in order to avoid skin contact with the remaining heat or steam.
-
This electric pressure cooker generates heat and escaping steam during use.
CAUTION HOT SURFACES. All necessary precautions should be followed to avoid fire, burns or other personal injury during its operation. Never use or place the unit near flammable materials such as dish towels, paper plates, napkins, curtains, paper towels, etc. Allow sufficient space around all sides of the unit, including top and bottom to ensure proper air flow. -

Before First Use
Before the first use, please take out all accessories from the package and read this Manual carefully. Pay particular attention to operational instructions and cautions to avoid any injury or property damage.
Prior to each use, inspect to make sure the seal and anti-block shield are mounted in the lid. After use, remove any foreign object from the seal and anti-block shield. Keep clean to avoid odors.
Never pull the seal by force, as pull deformation may affect sealing and pressure effect. A damaged seal should not be used, and unit shall be sent to the service center for replacement.
Safe Lid Opening
- Disconnect the power or the power plug.
- Releasing pressure:
- Quick opening (for non-fluid food):
- Slide the exhaust valve to the Release position.
- Put a wet towel on the lid to cool faster until the float valve falls fully.
- Normal opening: wait until the floating valve drops down, and then open the lid.
- Open the lid: Hold the lid handle, turn the lid clockwise to the unlock position and carefully lift the lid up to open.
- Do not open the lid until pressure inside the pot is completely released.
- Never pull out the Pressure Release Valve when it is releasing pressure.
- When a large quantity of food is cooked, do not try to release the pressure immediately after cooking
- For fluid foods (thin, thick, and sticky liquids), do not slide the Pressure Release Valve for releasing pressure when cooking is just finished. If you do that, the hot food fluid may spill from the Pressure Release Valve and cause bodily burn. Be sure to disconnect the power supply.
- It is recommended to let the food cool down for a while before releasing the pressure.
WARNING
Do not hold the pressure release valve. Hot steam/liquid may be ejected.
Keep hands and face away from steam vents, use potholders when removing the
inner pot or touching any hot items, and never force the lid open. The lid
will only open once the pressure is released. Remove the lid by lifting it
away from you to avoid being burned by the steam.
How to Use
The Electric Pressure Cooker uses a large and user-friendly control panel with
digital touch buttons. The convenient built-in cooking buttons allow you to
cook your favorite food with a simple touch of the button.
The general procedure for using the cooking functions is as follows:
-
Follow the steps detailed in this manual under the heading ìGeneral Operating Instructions.
-
Connect the power cord.
To ensure safety, it is recommended to connect the power cord to the cooker first and then connect the plug to the power outlet. -
Select a cooking method by pressing the corresponding button.
Once the button is pressed, the display will show the default pressure cooking time. Cooking times may vary depending on the different cooking program selections. Cooking time may vary slightly depending on the quantity of food and liquid and textures of food.
The cooking time shown below is for reference only. (e. g. food amount +water reaches scale between 1/5 to 3/5 inside the inner pot):
Cooking time = heating time + default pressure cooking time.
- Will change according to the amount of food. More food will imply more time needed to cook.
When you select a function and enter into the program, the display will show the default pressure cooking time (for rice is 8 minutes), and the pressure cooker starts to heat up. The default pressure cooking time shown on display will NOT start counting down until the food or liquid has heated up and the pressure cooker has started pressure cooking. Heating time normally takes more than 10 minutes depending on food quantity.
4. The menu indicator light will flash for 5 seconds before starting the
menu. After 5 seconds, the indicator light will stop flashing to indicate that
the cooking process has started.
During this 5-second interval you can change the default cooking time by
pressing the plus (+) or minus (-) button on the panel. At any time during the
process, the program can be canceled by pressing the Cancel/Keep Warm button.
The pressure cooker will then go into Standby mode.
5. As the pressure increases inside the cooker, the floating valve will pop
up. At this point pressure cooker begins. The lid is now locked and cannot be
opened.
CAUTION! NEVER ATTEMPT TO OPEN THE LID WHILE PRESSURE COOKING!
Note: The Pressure Active indicator will light up and indicate that the unit is under high pressure.
After cooking time has ended, the pressure cooker will automatically go into Keep Warm mode. The cooker makes an audible beep. The Keep Warm indicator light is on to show the cooker is in Keep Warm mode. The display will count up the elapsed minutes and let you know how long the cooker has been in Keep Warm mode. The Pressure Active indicator goes off automatically when the cooker goes into Keep Warm mode. Be aware that the cooker is still under high pressure at that moment. Do not attempt to open the lid. Release the pressure first.
Opening the Lid
When pressure cooking has come to an end, the cooker will go into Keep Warm mode. At this point you may choose to open the lid, but before, the pressure needs to be released. This can be done in two ways:
-
Quick pressure release: Move the Exhaust Valve to the VENT position. Steam will immediately begin to release through the valve. When pressure is fully released, the floating valve will sink. The lid will now be unlocked to open.
USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN OPENING THE COVER. SERIOUS BURNS CAN RESULT FROM STEAM INSIDE THE UNIT. CAUTION: KEEP HANDS AND FACE AWAY FROM THE VALVE WHILE VENTING.
Hot steam escaping from the valve may cause serious injuries if precautions are not followed. Use potholders, tongs, or other tools to adjust the valve. -
Natural pressure release is recommended when cooking foods that will not have the tendency to overcook, such as potatoes, beans, soups, and stews. When in Keep Warm mode, the pressure will begin to drop. This will take from 12 to 30 minutes. During this time cooking continues slightly. When pressure is fully released, the float valve will sink. The lid will be now unlocked to open.
CAUTION: KEEP HANDS AND FACE FROM THE VALVE WHILE VENTING.
Hot steam escaping from the valve may cause serious injuries if precautions are not followed. Use potholders, tongs, or other tools to adjust the valve.
USE POTHOLDERS WHEN REMOVING THE REMOVABLE COOKING POT. NEVER FORCE THE LID TO OPEN.
THE LID WILL ONLY OPEN WHEN ALL PRESSURE IS RELEASED.
REMOVE THE LID BY LIFTING IT AWAY FROM YOU TO AVOID INJURIES CAUSED BY HOT STEAM.

SAFETY AND COOKING TIPS
- EXTREME CAUTION should be taken when sliding the pressure release switch to the Venting position. Keep hands and face away from the pressure valve openings. Failure to comply may result in scalding or serious injury.
- DO NOT open the lid until pressure inside the cooker is completely released. As a safety mechanism, the lid will remain locked and cannot be opened until the floater valve drops.
- When opening the lid, the inner pot may stick to the lid. This is caused by vacuum due to cooling. To release the vacuum, slide the pressure release switch to the Venting position.
- If the floater valve is stuck, slide the pressure release switch to the Venting position. If all the steam has released, push the floater valve down with a pen or long stick.
- ALWAYS add at least 1 cup of water or other liquids so enough steam can be generated to cook under pressure. These include cooking sauces, wine, beer, stocks, juices of fruit and vegetables. Oils and oil- based sauces do not have enough water content and will not account for the required liquid volume.
- When cooking rice, DO NOT exceed 1 0 cups of uncooked rice in the 6 Quart model or 1 4 cups of uncooked rice in the 8 Quart model. Exceeding these recommendations may cause rice to be undercooked.
- The time to build pressure and cook will vary according to the temperature and quantity of the ingredients. Food that is cold or frozen will take longer to cook than food that is at room temperature.
- The Delay Timer is not recommended for porridge, oatmeal, or other foamy and thick liquids. Cooking progress should be monitored when cooking these foods.
