Parts (pie for reference only)

Before the First Use

Before the first use, please take out all accessories from the package and read this manual carefully. Please wash the inside of the lid and the inner pot with warm soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. Clean the outside of the cooker base with a clean damp cloth.

Never immerse the cooker base in water or any other liquid.

Never clean the cooker base in the dishwasher. The lid and sealing ring can be washed in the dishwasher. Make sure water is fully drained after washing. Inspect the lid to ensure that there is no food debris blocking the valves.

Install the Condensation Collector.

To install the condensation collector, slide it into the slot on the cooker base. Follow the reverse order to remove it for cleaning.

Remove and Install the Sealing Ring.

The sealing ring can be removed by pulling it outward, section by section. To reinstall the sealing ring, press it down into the holes section by section. The sealing ring can be installed with either side facing up.

Please note the following

• Prior to each use, inspect to make sure the sealing ring is well seated.
• After use, remove any food debris from the sealing ring.
• Keep the sealing ring clean to avoid odor. Washing the sealing ring in warm soapy water or dishwasher can remove odor. However, it is normal for the sealing ring to absorb the smell of certain acidic foods. It is recommended to have more than one sealing ring at home.
• Never pull the sealing ring by force, as the force may deform the sealing ring and affect the pressure sealing function.
• A sealing ring with cracks, cuts, or other damages should be replaced immediately.

Safe Lid Opening

Make sure the pressure cooking program has ended or press “Keep-Warm/Cancel” to stop the program.

1. Release pressure by one of the following approaches:
   a ) Quick Release: Turn the pressure release handle to the “Venting” position to let out steam until the float valve drops
   Caution:

   • Please keep hands and face away from the opening on the top of the pressure release handle when using Quick Release. The escaping steam is hot and can cause scalds.
   • Never pull out the pressure release handle when it is letting out steam.
   • Please be aware that Quick Release is not suitable for food with large liquid volume or high starch content (e.g. porridge, congee, sticky liquids, soup, etc.). Food content may splatter out from the pressure release. Use Natural Release instead.
     b ) Natural Release: Allow the cooker to cool down naturally until the float valve drops down.
     This maitake 10 to 15 minutes or longer, depending on the amount of food inside. After cooking is finished, the cooker will be in Keep Warm mode. Hint: Place a wet towel on the lid to speed up cooling.

2. 0pen the lid: To avoid vacuum suction on the lid, turn the pressure release to “Venting” position to let in air when lifting the lid. Hold the lid handle, turn the lid counterclockwise to the open position, and lift the lid up to open.

Caution

• Do not open the lid until pressure inside the pot is completely released. As a safety feature. the lid will not open until the float valve drops down.
• If the float valve is stuck due to food debris or sticky liquid, you can push it down with a pen or chopstick after you are certain that the pressure has been released completely by moving the pressure release handle to the venting position.
• To avoid personal injuries, never attempt to force down the float valve to open the lid. DO NOT open the lid until after the pressure is completely released naturally or manually by opening the pressure release valve.

Cooking Preparation

1. Open the lid: Pick up the lid handle, rotate approximately 30 degrees counterclockwise until the  mark on the lid is aligned with the “Open” mark on the cooker base.

2. Check whether all parts on the lid are assembled properly: Check the float valve and pressure release valve for obstructions. Make sure that the sealing ring is well seated. And the float valve can move up and down easily.

3. Take out the inner pot and add food and liquid: For all pressure cooking programs, the total amount of precooked food and liquid should NEVER pass 2/3 of the inner pot capacity. When cooking food that expands during cooking such as rice, beans, or dried vegetables, do not fill pass 1/2 of the inner pot capacity. Over filling may risk clogging the pressure release valve and developing excess pressure. This may also cause leakage, personal injuries, or damage to the unit.
   For non-pressure cooking programs, Do not exceed the MAX line.

4. Place the inner pot inside the cooker base: Be sure to remove any food debris. Wipe dry the outside of the inner pot and the heating plate inside the cooker base. After putting the inner pot inside the cooker base, rotate the inner pot slightly to ensure good contact between the inner pot and the heating element.

5. Close the lid completely: Pick up the lid and put the lid on the cooker with the ‘Y mark on the lid and the .A. “Open” mark on the cooker base aligned. Rotate the lid clockwise approximately 30 degrees until the ‘Y mark on the lid is aligned with the .A. “Close” mark on the cooker base rim.
   When using “soup”, “meat/stew”, “bean/Chili”, “poultry”, “rice”, “multigrain”, “porridge”, “steam”&” Canning”, the lid must be completely closed. If the lid is not placed correct, the display will flash “Lid”. For “Slow cook”& “Yogurt”, the lid can be closed or not. For “Saute”, the lid must be open. If it is closed, the display will flash “Lid”.

6. Position the pressure release handle properly:
   Please note that it is perfectly normal and necessary for the pressure release handle to be loose. It works by weight and simply rests on top of the pressure release outlet. It can also be cleaned and removed by pulling it straight out if necessary. When running any of the programs except “Keep-Warm”, “Saute”, “Slow Cook” or “Yogurt”, align the pointed end of the pressure release handle to “Sealing” position, indicating that the pressure cooker is in the sealed position. The “Saute” function must be used without the lid. The “Slow Cook”, “Yogurt” and “Keep-Warm” functions can operate with or without the lid. Caution: When the lid is closed while initiating the “Keep Warm”, “Yogurt” or “Slow Cook” program, the pressure release valve must be in the ‘Venting’ position.
