How to Use

To assure the very best results every time, carefully follow these step-by-step instructions for pressure cooking. You may find it helpful to refer back to Fig. C on page 3.

1.Prepare ingredients according to the directions in the pressure cooking recipe you have selected. Recipes in this book were developed for use in a 4-quart pressure cooker. If you have a 6-quart pressure cooker, you may increase the ingredients by ½. If you have an 8-quart pressure cooker, you may double the ingredients. Be sure not to overfill the pressure cooker (see pages 5 and 6 for guidance on filling).

Pour liquid into the cooker body, as specified in the recipe or timetable. This liquid is usually water. However, some recipes will call for other liquids, such as wine.

2.Place the cooking rack into the cooker, if called for in the recipe (see Helpful Hints on page 8 for guidance on when to use).

3.IMPORTANT: Look through the vent pipe to make certain that it is clear

(Fig. E) before placing cover on cooker body. See safety information on page 6.

Holding the body handle with your left hand and the cover handle with your right hand, align the V (or ) mark on the cover with the

mark on the body handle and place the cover on the cooker body

(Fig. F). Aluminum cookers have a V mark on the cover and stainless steel cookers have a mark on the cover.

4.After placing the cover on the cooker body, place one hand on the cover opposite the body handle and apply a slight downward pressure. Place the thumb of your other hand on the side of the body handle and wrap your fingers around the cover handle (Fig. G). Then rotate the cover clockwise until the cover handle lines up with the body handle. The pressure cooker is completely closed when the cover handle is directly above the body handle (Fig. H).

5.Place the pressure regulator on the vent pipe (Fig. I). The pressure regulator will fit loosely on the vent pipe. It will not touch the top of the pressure cooker cover.

6.Using a high heat setting on your stove, heat the pressure cooker until the pressure regulator attains a gentle rocking motion.

NOTE: The air vent/cover lock may move up and down a few times when cooking first begins as it automatically exhausts air from the pressure cooker. Steam will be noticeable. This is normal. When pressure
