    • Do not fill the appliance over 2/3 full. When cooking foods that expand during cooking such as rice or dried vegetables, do not fill the appliance over 1/2 full. Overfilling may cause a risk of clogging the vent pipe and developing excess pressure. See the “Prepare For Cooking” section.
    • Do not open the appliance until the appliance has cooled and all internal pressure has been released. If the float valve is still up and/or the lid is difficult to open, this indicates that the appliance is still pressurized – do not force it open. Any pressure in the appliance can be hazardous. Please see the “Safely Open the Lid” section for instructions to safely remove lid.

    • CAUTION: Risk of electric shock. Cook only in removable container.
    • This appliance is not intended for deep frying foods.
    • This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
  • WARNING
    Observe instructions

    • If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agentor similarly qualified per sons in order to avoid a hazard.
    • The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or a separate remote-control system.
    • Do not tamper with any of the safety systems beyond the maintenance instructions specified in the instructions for use. Only use the manufacturer’s spare parts by the relevant model. In particular, use a body and a lid from the same manufacturer indicated as being compatible.
    • Be aware that certain foods, such as applesauce, cranberries, pearl barley, oatmeal or other cereals, split peas, noodles, macaroni, rhubarb, or spaghetti can foam, froth, and sputter, and clog the pressure release device (steam vent). These foods should not be cooked in a pressure cooker.
    • When the normal operating pressure is reached, turn the heat down so all the liquid, which creates the steam, does not evaporate.
