Components and Features

1.Pressure Cooker Pot: Made of high-quality,heavy-gauge, stainless steel. All cooking takes place in the pressure cooker pot.

2.Lid: Made of high-quality, heavy- gauge stainless steel. The lid must be properly locked in position in order to build sufficient pressure for cooking. The raised indentation on top of the lid, located to the left of the handle, allows you to easily align the lid to the

cutout on top of the base handle when closing the pressure cooker (Fig. 6)

WARNING: NEVER FORCE THE PRESSURE COOKER OPEN

3.Pot Handle: Besides being used to move and carry the pressure cooker, the pot handle interlocks with the lid handle when the lid is turned clockwise. (Fig. 6)

4.Lid Handle: Used to remove the lid from the pressure cooker, the lid handle contains important components vital to the use of the pressure cooker.

To reduce the risk of burns or spills, the lid and pot handle should be positioned so that it is turned inward towards the back of the stove, and does not extend over adjacent surface units or overhang over the edge of the stove top.

5.Support Grip Handle: The support grip handle provides greater stability when moving or carrying the pressure cooker.

6.Operating Valve: This operating valve features a pressure setting (either 1 or 2), a steam release position (with a picture of steam), and an unlock position (picture of a circle with a line through it) (Figures 8-9-10-15). Note that the operating valve will not simply turn to the unlock position. See the Care and Cleaning section of this manual for instructions on how to turn the valve to the unlock position to remove it.
