Pressure indicator
The pressure intensity indicator uses white and grey rings to show the current pressure in the vessel. If the
indicator is inserted inside the operating valve, there is no operating pressure in the vessel. If the pressure
intensity indicator shows a red ring, the operating pressure in the vessel is higher than permitted; in this
case, immediately reduce the heat output to minimum and if the red ring remains in the upper position
even after reducing the heat output, immediately turn off the heat source and remove the pressure cooker
from the heat.
PRACTICAL HINTS
ALWAYS USE AN APPROPRIATE SIZE OF COOKING RANGE OR FLAME FOR COOKING.
The diameter of the cooking range must be identical or smaller than the diameter of the bottom of the
pressure cooker! Flames must never expand beyond the bottom of the pressure cooker. Use the dispenser
net or cooking range when cooking on gas.
Make use of the heat retaining properties of the three-layer sandwich bottom. Switch the heat off in
advance before the end of cooking. Thanks to the three-layer sandwich bottom, the accumulated heat
energy is transferred into the pressure cooker even after the heat has been switched off .
The vessel of the pressure cooker may also be used without the lid as a traditional pot for cooking meals
on the cooking range.
NOTICE
If a large amount of steam escapes from the pressure cooker at the beginning of the cooking process, the
pressure cooker has not been correctly closed. Incorrect closing is usually due to the following:
a) The lid is attached incorrectly - close the pressure cooker again.
b) The pressure regulator is set in the steam release position – adjust it to one of the positions for cooking.
c) The silicone seal is incorrectly positioned in the lid - check its position.
d) The silicone seal is faulty - replace it with a new original Tescoma seal.
STORAGE, MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Lid
DO NOT WASH THE LID OF THE PRESSURE COOKER IN DISHWASHER.
Clean the operating valve apertures by fl ushing them with running water or clean them using a suitable object.
Clean the safety valve by repeatedly pushing on the centre and lightly pulling the entire valve upwards
under running water.
Do not dismount the safety valve, the folding handle, the clamp-type closure, the grips or other parts of the lid.
ALWAYS STORE THE PRESSURE COOKER WITH THE LID UNATTACHED.
Vessel
THE VESSEL OF THE PRESSURE COOKER IS DISHWASHER SAFE.
Should white stains due to scale formation appear inside the pressure cooker, use vinegar, drops of
lemon or the special stainless steel cleaning agent CLINOX to clean them. The white stains do not aff ect
functioning of the cookware and are not hazardous to health. As such they do not represent a fault and
cannot be claimed. When the pressure cooker is overheated, purple to brown stains might appear on the
