Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a Fagor Pressure Cooker. We appreciate the confidence you have placed in our company by selecting one of our many pressure cookers, and we are confident that it will give you many years of excellent service.

Surrounded by endless myths, pressure cookers are probably the least understood of cookware. This is unfortunate since pressure cookers provide many advantages over traditional cooking. First and foremost, most foods can be cooked in a fraction of the time it normally would take, in most cases, cooking in up to one third of the time. Since the food is being cooked for such a shorter period, it is less likely to lose its color and flavor, as well as many of vital minerals and vitamins that are normally washed away when cooking in large quantities of water in an open pot, for longer periods of time.

Made from high-quality, heavy-gauge, 18/10 stainless steel, Fagor pressure cookers are manufactured and designed

with a concern for function and safety, meeting all international safety standards.

Fagor’s easy-to-use pressure regulators make it simpler than ever to determine the proper amount of pressure and how to maintain it. The pressure release valves signal when to lower or raise the burner heat in order to maintain the level of pressure desired.

We know that once you begin using your Fagor Pressure Cooker, you’ll understand why it is the single most important piece of cookware you’ll ever own.

Before you begin cooking, it is important that you read this detailed user’s manual and make sure you understand how to operate, care and maintain your Fagor Pressure Cooker so that you will be able to enjoy many years of use.
