» Read all the instructions.
» Keep a strict watch if the pressure cooker is
used near children.
» Do not place the pressure cooker in a hot
oven.
» Be extremely careful when moving your pres-
sure cooker. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use
handles and lid pommel. If necessary use glo-
ves.
» Do not use the pressure cooker for anything other
than its intended purpose. Never force the pressure
cooker open. Ensure that the inside pressure has
dropped completely.
» After cooking meat whose skin may swell un-
der pressure (e.G. Ox tongue), do not prick the
meat while the skin remains swollen as it may
scald.
» Always shake the pan gently before opening
when cooking doughy substances to avoid
spattering.
» Never use the pressure cooker to fry with oil
under pressure.
» Do not interfere with the safety systems except
as described in the maintenance instructions in
this users’ manual.
» Use only original spare parts for the correspon-
ding model.
» Never use abrasive detergents.
» Use a suitable size hotplate or gas burner equal
to, or smaller than, the pan base. Overheating
may blacken the stainless steel or result in bro-
wn or blue stains. These stains will disappear with
normal cleaning.
» Keep these instructions for future reference.
