This program quickly brings cooking liquid to a boil for steaming food or cooking rice.

1.Position the removable cooking pot in the pressure cooker.

2.Place a small, heat-resistant rack or basket (not included) in the bottom of the removable cooking pot.

3.Add at least 8 oz. of water so that the bottom of the rack is above the liquid.

4.Add the food. Do not fill the pot more than two-thirds full. Note: If steaming rice, put the rice in a 8” or smaller oven-safe bowl and place on the rack.

5.Place the self-locking lid onto the removable cooking pot and turn the pressure regulator knob to STEAM.

6.Press the STEAM button. The light on the button will flash and the digital display will read 01. (This equals 1 minute cooking time.)

(No longer than 1 hour when the room temperature is above 90°F.) When cooking these foods, do not set the delay time function for more than 1-2 hours.
