3 stages when pressure cooking: 1. Pre-Heating and Pressurization The cooker
waits 10 seconds to ensure you have finished inputting your selections, then
displays On to indicate it has begun pre-heating. While the cooker pre-heats,
it vaporizes liquid in the inner pot to create steam. Once enough steam has
built up inside the inner pot, the float valve pops up and locks the lid of
the cooker in place for safe pressure cooking. When the float valve pops up,
the silicone cap attached to the bottom of the float valve (on the underside
of the lid) seals the steam inside the cooking chamber (the inner pot) and
allows the pressure to rise even higher. A higher pressure means a higher
cooking temperature. While it is normal to see some steam escaping through the
float valve during Pre-Heating, if you see steam escaping from around the
sides of the lid, press Cancel and refer to Troubleshooting. Note: The time it
takes your cooker to pressurize is determined by a variety of factors,
including food and liquid volume. 2. Cooking After the float valve pops up,
the cooker needs a few minutes to finish building pressure. When the required
pressure level is reached, cooking begins. The display switches from On to the
cooking countdown timer, displayed in HH:MM (hours : minutes) format. Smart
Program settings (e.g., cooking time, temperature and/or pressure level, and
whether Keep Warm will come on automatically or not) can be adjusted at any
time during cooking. Refer to Smart Program Settings for details.

Cooking with the Viva
3. Depressurization After pressure cooking completes, follow your recipe
instructions for depressurizing the cooker.
If automatic Keep Warm is on after cooking completes, the timer counts up from
00:00 to indicate the elapsed time up to 10 hours. If not, the cooker returns
to Standby and displays End.
Note: The cooker cools and depressurizes faster if automatic Keep Warm is off.
See Depressurizing the Cooker (Venting Methods) for information on releasing
pressure after cooking.
DANGER
While the float valve is up, contents of cooker are under extreme pressure. Do not attempt to remove the lid while the float valve is still up. All pressure must be released, and float valve must be down before attempting to remove the lid. Never attempt to force the lid open. Failure to follow the instructions may result in property damage and/or personal injury.
30
Depressurizing the Cooker (Venting Methods)
Always follow recipe instructions for depressurizing the cooker.
Seal Position
Vent Position
Natural Release (NR)
Leave the quick release button in the popped-up Seal position. As the
temperature within the cooker drops, the cooker depressurizes naturally over
time.
Depressurization time varies based upon the volume and type of food and liquid. When the cooker has completely depressurized, the float valve drops into the lid.
NOTICE
Use NR to depressurize the cooker after cooking high-starch foods (e.g., soups, stews, chilis, pasta, oatmeal and congee) or after cooking foods that expand when cooked (e.g., beans and grains).
Quick Release (QR)
Press the quick release button down until it clicks and locks into the Vent
position.
When depressed, a stream of steam releases through the top of the steam release valve.
CAUTION
Steam ejected from the steam release valve is hot. Do not place hands, face, or any exposed skin over the steam release valve when releasing pressure.
Note: Steam may range in opacity but is always loud! When the cooker has completely depressurized, the float valve drops into the lid.
31
Depressurizing the Cooker (Venting Methods)
If continuous spatter occurs while venting, set the cooker back to Seal by
flicking the quick release button. The button pops back up to indicate that it
is sealed and stops the depressurization process. Wait a few minutes before
trying to QR again. If spatter continues, use NR to safely release remaining
pressure.
NOTICE
Do not use QR when cooking high-starch foods (e.g., stews, chilis, pasta and congee) or when cooking foods that expand when cooked (e.g., beans and grains).
10-Minute NR
Leave the quick release button in the popped-up Seal position for 10 minutes
after cooking has completed, then press the quick release button down until it
clicks and locks into the Vent position. When depressed, a stream of steam
releases through the top of the steam release valve.
If continuous spatter occurs while venting, set the cooker back to Seal by
flicking the quick release button. Wait an additional 5 minutes before trying
to QR again. If spatter continues, use NR to safely release remaining
pressure.
DANGER
While the float valve is up, contents of cooker are under extreme pressure. Do not attempt to remove the lid while the float valve is still up. All pressure must be released, and float valve must be down before attempting to remove the lid. Never attempt to force the lid open. Failure to follow the instructions may result in property damage and/or personal injury.

Do not overfill the inner pot. Ensure that total contents (water and food pouches) leave at least 2 inches of space between the brim of the inner pot and the water line.
16. Once complete, the display indicates End. Open cooker and carefully
remove the pouches from water.
17. Remove contents from pouches and use a thermometer to check for doneness.
Follow a recipe or refer to the Sous Vide Cooking Guidelines.
Reverse Searing Searing your meat after cooking, rather than before, is a
great way to boost flavors. After sous vide cooking, remove the meat from the
cooking pouch and gently pat it dry. Then, sear it lightly in the inner pot
with the Sauté Smart Program, or use a pan, browning torch, or grill.
Ingredients and Seasonings · Use high quality, fresh ingredients when cooking
sous vide to ensure the best possible flavor.
· When seasoning with salt, it is better to use less than you might add
normally, especially with meats, poultry, and fish. Instead, salt to taste
after cooking.
· Use garlic powder rather than raw garlic. Raw garlic can become bitter and
overpowering when cooked sous vide. Pure and high-quality garlic powder
provides the best results.
Note: Do not use garlic salt in place of garlic powder!
Storing Cooked Food If your dish is not going to be consumed immediately,
plunge pouches into ice water to reduce temperature quickly, then keep
refrigerated.
