- When finished Sauteing, press Cancel to end the cooking process, or simply wait until Saute is complete. The LCD will display OFF, indicating that the cooker is in standby mode. As a safety precaution, the cooker automatically enters standby mode after 30 minutes.
- Carefully remove your ingredients from the Inner Pot, or add additional ingredients if you are still cooking.
Reminder: Minimum amount of liquid needed for cooking is 2 cups (160ml/cup) unless otherwise directed by the recipe.
SLOW COOK
This function allows you to cook various recipes slowly (range 30 minutes to 20 hours at temperatures ranging from 198-208 °F).
- Add ingredients to the Inner Pot and place the Inner Pot into the Cooker Base. Lock the Lid in place and make sure the Steam Release Handle is in the ‘Venting” position.
- Plug in the pressure cooker. The LCD displays OFF, indicating that the cooker is in standby mode.
- Press the “Slow Cook” function and press “Slow Cook” repeatedly to adjust the temperature between Less, Normal (default), and More modes. Press and adjust the cooking time from 30 minutes to 20 hours. (The default cooking time is 4 hours.) The set time will show on the display screen.

If it is already active, simply press the Cancel button to stop the program. You can still turn this setting on as a standalone program to warm up pre-cooked food.
PRESSURE RELEASE METHODS (MANUAL)
QUICK RELEASE
This method releases pressure in the form of steam in just a couple of minutes. When cooking has finished, you can release the built-up pressure manually by turning the Steam Release Handle to the “Venting” position. Always be cautious, protective gloves or a long utensil as a stream of hot steam will shoot out of the valves. Once steam no longer escapes from the vent and the Float Valve has dropped, you can now carefully open the Lid away from you. Be mindful of any remaining steam, water, or oil as these may cause bums.
NATURAL RELEASE
This method is much slower than the quick-release method. When cooking has finished, let the built-up pressure release on its own without turning the Steam Release Handle. This may take 10-40 minutes, or longer, depending on the amount of food in the cooker and the settings used. You may wish to leave the Cooker on the Keep Warm setting while pressure is released, or you can turn it off or unplug it so the contents will cool faster. Once the Float Valve drops down, you can now carefully open the Lid away from you. As a precaution, you can turn the Steam Release Handle to Venting to make sure all pressure has been completely released. Typically, using the quick release method after 10-15 minutes of natural release will have allowed enough time to pass so as not to affect the end result of the recipe.
