HINTS AND TIPS ABOUT YOUR DIGITAL COOKER

To ensure the best cooking performance when pressure cooking, always make sure the recipe calls for at least 1 cup of water or other liquid so enough steam can be generated to create pressure.

After a period of time the rubber gasket may shrink, harden, or otherwise become distorted under normal use. When this happens or other damage occurs, do not use the appliance. The rubber gasket should be replaced. Contact the Customer Satisfaction Department (800-288-4545).

When using the HIGH or LOW pressure settings, the timer will not start counting ‘down’ until sufficient steam pressure is generated.

When pressure cooking, if you are not sure how much cooking time is necessary, it is better to ‘under’ cook. Then use the “quick release” method, remove Lid and check for doneness.

Never fill the removable cooking pot more than half full with food or 4/5 full with liquid.

Make sure this appliance is plugged into a separate 120 volt electrical outlet. A circuit overload may occur if used with another appliance at the same time.

Tougher, less expensive cuts of meats are better suited for your digital pressure cooker because the steam pressure helps break down the tough fibers in the meat making them more tender and flavorful.

Fresh fruit should be cooked under low pressure.

When pressure cooking beans, add a teaspoon of oil to the water to reduce the amount of foaming.

Any liquid such as oils, oil-based marinades and dressings should not be used pressure cooking.

Liquids that contain water can be used when pressure cooking. These include wine, beer, stocks, tomato and other vegetable and fruit juices. Wine must be mixed with an equivalent amount of water because it evaporates quickly during cooking.

Frozen foods can be cooked if meat is one-inch or less in thickness, do not alter the cooking times, appliance will begin the timer after set internal temperature is reached.

During the pressure building process, you may notice steam escaping from the pressure regulating valve. Carefully adjust the valve by moving it gently or turning it side to side gently using tongs or similar utensil until it seals properly.

If steam is escaping around the lid, it means that the rubber gasket may not be sealed. Cancel the cooking process, release pressure manually or naturally, remove the lid and check the rubber gasket for damage or incorrectly installed. Re-install after examination and start cooking process.

NOTE: The boiling point of water decreases as the altitude increases, and this changes your appliance performance. When pressure cooking at higher altitudes, the following will apply: Add 5% to the cooking time for every 1,000 feet above the first 2,000 feet. Example: At 3,000 feet add 5%; 4,000 feet add 10%; 5,000 feet add 15%; etc..
