EN IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

For your safety, this device complies with the applicable standards and regulations:

-Pressure vessel appliance

-Materials in contact with food

-Environment

•This product has been designed for domestic use only.

•Any commercial use, inappropriate use or failure to comply with the instructions, the manufacturer accepts no responsibility and the guarantee will not apply.

•Take time to read all of the instructions and always refer back to the “User's Guide”.

•As with any cooking appliance, ensure close supervision if you are using the pressure cooker with children nearby.

•Do not put your pressure cooker into a hot oven.

•When the pressure cooker is under pressure, take great care when moving it. Do not touch the hot surfaces. Use the handles and knobs. Wear gloves if necessary.

•Regularly check that the pan handles are fixed properly. Tighten if necessary.

•Do not use your pressure cooker for any purpose other than that for which it is designed.

•Your pressure cooker cooks under pressure. Burns could result from boiling over if not used properly. Make sure that the pressure cooker is properly closed before bringing it up to pressure. Refer to section “Closing”.

•Always make sure that the valve is in the decompression position before opening your pressure cooker.

•Never force the pressure cooker open. Make sure that the internal pressure has returned to normal. Refer to section “Safety”.

•Never use your pressure cooker without liquid: this could cause serious damage. Always make sure that there is enough liquid in it during cooking.

•Use heat source(s) that are compatible with your pressure cooker, in line with the instructions for use.

•Never make milk-based recipes (such as rice pudding, semolina pudding ...) in your pressure cooker.

•Do not use rock salt in your pressure cooker, but rather add table salt when the cooking is nearly finished.

•Never fill your pressure cooker more than two-thirds full (maximum fill mark).

•For food that expands during cooking, like rice or dried vegetables or stewed fruit, etc., never fill your pressure cooker more than half full. For certain soups like pumpkin or courgette, give your pressure cooker a few minutes to cool down, then cool it down fully by placing it under cold running water.

•After cooking meat which has an outer layer of skin (such as ox tongue), which could swell due to the effects of pressure, do not pierce the skin after cooking if it appears swollen: you could get burnt. Pierce it before cooking.

•When cooking food with a thick texture (chick peas, rhubarb, stewed fruit, etc.) the pressure cooker should be shaken slightly before opening to ensure that the food does not spurt out.

•Always check that valves are clear before use. Refer to section “Before cooking”.

•Do not use the pressure cooker to fry under pressure using oil.

•Do not interfere with the safety systems, except for cleaning and maintenance in accordance with instructions.

•Use only original TEFAL spare parts suitable for your model. Particularly, use a TEFAL pan and lid.

•Alcohol vapours are flammable. Bring to a boil for about 2 minutes before placing the lid. Watch your appliance when preparing alcohol-based recipes.

•Do not use your pressure cooker to store acidic or salty food before and after cooking to avoid damaging your pan.

•You can use the pan to cook food without the lid. Do not use the lid if you do not intend the food to be cooked under pressure.
