Breville recommends safety first
•Do not exceed maximum fill level. Some foods expand during pressure cooking such as rice, diced vegetables, do not fill removable cooking pan over ½ full. Over filling may cause a risk of clogging pressure release valve and pressure indicator valve and develop excess pressure.
•Do not use a damaged removable cooking bowl. Replace before using.
•Ensure that lid is properly closed before operating. (see step 4 page
•Do not use Breville Fast Slow Cooker for other than it’s intended use. Do not attempt to operate Breville Fast Slow Cooker by any method other than those described in this book.
•Some foods to avoid when pressure cooking are; apple sauce, cranberries, pearl barley, oatmeal and other cereals, noodles and pasta, and rhubarb; these foods can foam, froth and splatter and clog the pressure release valve and pressure indicator valve.
•Removable cooking bowl can be extremely heavy when full of ingredients, care should be taken when lifting from Breville Fast Slow Cooker base.
•Always check pressure release valve and pressure indicator valve for clogging before use and clean if necessary. Check to make sure the pressure indicator rod moves freely from under the lid.
•Extreme caution must be used when appliance contains hot food and liquids and/or is under pressure. Improper use may result in injury. When using this appliance for any function except sauté, make sure the lid is properly locked before operating.
•Do not use the lid handle to carry appliance when in use and after use.
•Do not attempt to open Breville Fast Slow Cooker lid after pressure cooking until all internal pressure has been released and is slightly cooled. If the lid will not turn to unlock, this indicates that appliance is still under pressure – do not force lid open. Any pressure remaining can be hazardous. See operating instructions for STEAM RELEASE directions in this instruction book. (see step
