Euro-Pro PC104 manual Releasing Pressure, Starting to Cook, Timing

RELEASING PRESSURE

Combination Method:

Turn heat off. Remove pressure cooker from burner. Allow the pressure cooker to cool off and the pressure to naturally decrease for the amount of time indicated on the recipe (standing time). Release the remaining pressure by using either the Natural Steaming-Off method or the Quick-release Method.

Quick-Release Method:

Caution must be exercised when using this method as a large volume of steam will escape from pressure selector dial and may cause a scalding injury if your face or any other part of the body is in front of this valve when steam is being released.

When using the Quick Release Method, you must be prepared for a loud hissing sound. This sound is normal and only occurs when you use this method of steam release.

You can either release the pressure on the stove or take it to the pressure cooker to the sink or counter. When removing the pressure cooker from

the stove, use two hands and only touch the Stay cool handles.

Slowly turn the pressure setting to “0” . You should momentarily stop at each interim pressure setting before reaching zero. Once all of the steam had escaped, you can remove the lid by opening it away from your face or body.

DO NOT USE QUICK RELEASE METHOD WITH FOODS LIKE LEGUMES, GRAIN OR OTHER FOODS THAT FROTH OR WHEN COOKER IS VERY FULL.

Never put any part of your body in front of the Quick Release Valve.

Never force the lid open.

Never open the lid towards your face.

STARTING TO COOK

To begin cooking, set the Pressure Selector on “I” low, “II” Medium or “III” High. Bring the cooker up to pressure at high heat.

TIMING

Timing for most recipes begins after the desired pressure is reached. However, some recipes indicate that timing starts immediately upon closure of lid. If this is the case, do not wait for the red pressure indicator dot to appear before timing.

Be aware that it can take the pressure cooker up to 15 minutes to achieve full pressure if it is full and the contents are cold. If practical, some ingredients (water, stock, etc.), can be pre-heated before adding them to the pressure cooker.

WHEN THE PRESSURE SELECTOR IS SET AT “0” - No pressure - the pot will act as a normal stockpot, without any pressure and may be used with the tempered glass cover.

RELEASING PRESSURE & REMOVING THE LID

NEVER FORCE THE LID OPEN.

NEVER OPEN THE LID TOWARDS YOUR FACE. NEVER OPEN THE PRESSURE COOKER ABRUPTLY. NEVER OPEN THE PRESSURE COOKER WITH THE LID TOWARDS YOU.

After the cooking time ends, you can use either the quick-release method, the natural steaming-off method or the combination method to release the pressure from the pressure cooker. See cooking chart on page 3 for the recommended pressure release method for the type of food that you are preparing. Once the pressure is fully released, you may then remove the lid. For safety reasons, the lid will not open if there is any pressure whatsoever in the pot. Never force the lid open.

To open the lid after all of the pressure is released, unlock the lid by pulling the handle and lifting the lid up.
