Cooking time
Cooking timen
The cooking time commences when
the required cooking ring position
1
is reached (see cooking times chart).

Make sure that the cooking ring stays
in position. Regulate the heat cor-
respondingly.
Opening the lidn

cooking takes longer.
If the cooking indicator

higher than the 2 nd orange ring, too
much pressure of steam builds up
which escapes audibly through the
I
main valve 3 in the handle of the
lid. Remove from the hob immedia-
tely and wait until the cooking indi-
cator has sunk to the 2
ring, turning down the heat.
Final phase of cooking
Turn off the heat when the food
has cooked or shortly before and
remove the cooker from the hob.
There is enough residual heat to
last until the food is cooked.
Cooking times can differ with the
same food because amount, shape
and consistency of the food can vary.
The cooking times given are as a
guide. Your own taste and how you
like your food cooked are more
important.
Remember that food can be easily
cooked for longer but you cannot
do anything about food that has been
overcooked. It is preferable to choose
shorter cooking times.
Vegetables cooked at the given
times are firm.
The cooking temperature is
109° C for the 1 st orange ring and
117°C for the 2 nd orange ring.
Opening the pressure cooker
The lid must only be opened and
removed when the cooker is not

indicator must have completely

rises

Slight pressure on the cooking indi-
cator with your finger will show you
whether there is any pressure left.
The residual pressure safety indica-
tor ensures that the cooker can
only be opened when the pressure
nd orange has been released completely.
This is only the case then the yellow
pressure ring on the cooking indi-
cator 1 is no longer visible
(Picture I).
If the residual pressure safety indi-
cator has responded, please release
it by giving the regulator 7
push forwards to »zu/locked«.
Shake the pressure cooker
before opening so that pockets of
steam in the food disperse.

The 3 ways of reducing
pressure in the cooker
a a The easiest way is to put the
cooker to one side and to wait until
the cooking indicator
into the handle of the lid comple-
tely. The yellow pressure indicator
ring is then no longer visible.
(Picture I)
This is recommended especially
with food that needs cooking for a
long time.
b b With food needing short cooking
times (e.g. vegetables) you can slowly
push the regulator
in order to prevent overcooking
(Picture A).
The steam escapes
Open the cooker only when
pressure is fully reduced and the
cooking indicator
red into the handle of the lid. The
yellow pressure indicator ring
is then no longer
c c If you find the escaping steam
unpleasant, place the cooker in the
a short sink and let cold water run over the
lid (Picture
indicator 1 has disappeared into
the handle of the lid. The yellow
pressure indicator ring is then no
longer visible (Picture
Caution:
When cooking food (e.g. pulses,
broth, cereals) that froths up you
should not reduce pressure with
the regulator or under running
water. Potatoes in their skins
burst if pressure is reduced by
means of method b or c.
Cleaning

clean in water (Picture
Remove the sealing ring
the lid and wash by hand. Lid, pot
and inserts can be washed in the
dishwasher.
Storage
To reduce wear and tear on the
sealing ring, after cleaning, place
