Impostare

1. Disimballaggio: Carefully remove all packaging materials. Retain packaging for potential future transport or storage.
2. Pulizia iniziale: Before first use, wash the pot, lid, and all accessories (basket, ecodose) with warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.
3. Installazione della guarnizione: Ensure the rubber gasket is correctly seated inside the lid rim. It should fit snugly and evenly.
4. Familiarizzazione: Practice opening and closing the lid without food or water to understand the locking mechanism.

Istruzioni per l'uso

1. Riempimento della pentola a pressione

• Add food and the required amount of liquid to the pot. Always use at least 1 cup (250ml) of liquid to generate steam.
• Do not exceed the maximum fill line (typically two-thirds full). For foods that expand, do not exceed the half-full line.
• If using the basket for steaming, place it on the trivet (if included) or directly into the pot with water below the basket level.

2. Chiusura del coperchio

1. Allineare il coperchio alla pentola.
2. Lower the lid onto the pot.
3. Rotate the main handle until it locks securely into place. The Leverblock mechanism will engage, preventing accidental opening.

3. Heating and Pressure Building

• Place the pressure cooker on a suitable heat source (gas, electric, induction).
• Heat on high until steam begins to escape steadily from the operating valve. This indicates that full pressure has been reached.
• Once steam is steadily escaping, reduce the heat to maintain a gentle, consistent steam release. This is the start of your cooking time.

4. Rilascioasing Pressione

Esistono generalmente due metodi per la releasinpressione g:

• Rilascio naturale: Remove the pressure cooker from the heat source and allow it to cool down naturally. Pressure will gradually decrease, and the operating valve will drop. This method is ideal for foods that benefit from continued cooking, such as stews and roasts.
• Sgancio rapido (sotto l'acqua fredda): For faster pressure release, carefully place the pressure cooker under a cold water tap, allowing water to run over the lid (avoiding the operating valve) until the operating valve drops. This method is suitable for delicate foods like vegetables. Attenzione: Do not immerse the entire cooker in water.

5. Apertura del coperchio

• Ensure all pressure has been released and the operating valve has dropped. The Leverblock mechanism will disengage.
• Rotate the main handle to unlock the lid.
• Sollevare con cautela il coperchio per evitare ustioni da vapore.

Manutenzione e pulizia

• Pulizia giornaliera: After each use, wash the pot, lid, and gasket with warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly. The pot and lid are dishwasher safe.
• Cura della guarnizione: Remove the gasket from the lid for cleaning. Inspect it for cracks or damage. Replace the gasket annually or if signs of wear are visible.
• Pulizia della valvola: Ensure the operating valve and safety valve are clear of food particles. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for specific valve disassembly and cleaning if necessary.
• Magazzinaggio: Conservare la pentola a pressione con il coperchio capovolto sulla pentola per consentire la circolazione dell'aria ed evitare che la guarnizione si comprima in modo permanente.
