a low pressure is ideal for economic cooking of meals, for example for cooking vegetables, fruits,
fi sh, etc. (Fig. L).
2. If you wish to cook at
a high pressure is quicker and uses a higher temperature. It is suitable in particular for cooking
meat and meals that require longer thermal treatment (Fig. M).
3. Place the correctly fi lled and closed pressure cooker with the selected pressure onto a cooker set
to the highest output.
4. The red pressure indicator placed in the lid grip
the minimum pressure has been generated in the vessel and the pressure cooker can no longer be
opened - steam will begin to escape from the aperture in the pressure regulator after a while (Fig. N).
5. When steam begins to escape from the aperture in the pressure regulator, reduce the heat output

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 pressure regulator of the operating valve has slipped up to the steam release position - push
the pressure regulator downwards and 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.

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 .
Set the pressure cooker aside for a while to allow the temperature and pressure in the pressure cooker
to drop suffi ciently.
Then push the steam release button and hold it until all steam has escaped from the pressure
cooker (Fig. O). The pressure indicator will slip down automatically after the steam has been entirely
released and the pressure dropped; the pressure cooker can be opened now.
