5. Reduce heat output so that only a small amount of steam escapes
from the operating valve. A low heat output will usually be enough.
6. We do not recommend changing the low / high pressure setting while
cooking. If this is necessary, use a suitable tool to change the pressure
such as a fork or oven mitten.
Warning! A minute amount of steam may also escape from the aperture of the safety
valve under the handle during the cooking process.
WARNING
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 operating valve is set to the steam release position - set it to the low
or high pressure cooking position.
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.
Cooking termination (Fig. L)
ALWAYS RELEASE STEAM ONLY AFTER REMOVING THE PRESSURE COOKER FROM
HEAT!
After the time required for cooking your meal elapses, remove the pressure cooker
from the heat source even if the latter has already been switched off.
Leave the pressure cooker aside for a while to allow the temperature and pressure
in the pressure cooker to drop spontaneously.
Turn the operating valve to the steam release position ( ) and release steam from
the pressure cooker (Fig. L).
The safety lock against accidental opening slips in after the steam is released and the
pressure cooker can be opened (Fig. E).
If the safety lock against accidental opening is in the upper position and the pres-
sure cooker cannot be opened, pressure still remains in the vessel. Make sure
that the operating valve is set to the steam release position. If the pressure cooker
still cannot be opened, put it into the sink and cool the lid with a small amount of
slowly running water until the red safety lock against accidental opening slips
in automatically.
NEVER COOL THE PRESSURE COOKER ABRUPTLY, DO NOT LET WATER RUN ONTO
PLASTIC PARTS AND DO NOT IMMERSE THE ENTIRE PRESSURE COOKER IN WATER.
DO NOT APPLY INAPPROPRIATE FORCE WHEN OPENING THE PRESSURE COOKER.
SAFETY SYSTEMS
THREE INDEPENDENT SAFETY CUT-OUTS AND A LOCK AGAINST ACCIDENTAL
OPENING.
Operating valve
The operating valve controls low and high pressure, continuously releases exces-
sive steam and releases all steam from the pressure cooker after the cooking process
fi nishes.
