First use
Before using the pressure cooker for the first time, we recommend
cleaning all the parts with hot water, soap and a soft scouring pad. Do
not wash the lid in the dishwasher.
Fill the pot with water up to 2/3 of its height
• Close the pressure cooker (see previous page: Close).
• Place the cooker on the stove at maximum level.
• When the pressure cooker reaches the cooking pressure and the
steaming begins to be released, you can reduce the heat to medium
low level to maintain a steady level of pressure.
• When 20 minutes have passed since the previous point occur, turn off
the heat completely.
• To depressurize the pressure cooker, press gradually the pressure
releasing device

. Be careful to keep your hands away from the steam release area
during this process.
• To reduce the pressure quicker, you can cool down the pressure cooker
by pouring a small stream of cold water on the lid (only on the edge, in
order to avoid water getting inside the pressure cooker).
• Once the steam is completely released, the lid is ready to be removed.
• Wash and dry the cooker lid and body.
