• Close the cooker.
• Select the steaming setting and build pressure.
• No pressure is built up, and the traffic light indicator does not rise.
• You will know that the water is boiling and the right temperature has been reached by the fact that steam is
expelled around the lid handle and/or control valve.
• Turn down the energy source.
• A slight release of steam during the cooking process is normal.
• Make sure that the liquid in the cooker does not boil off completely!
• The cooking times for steaming are approximately the same as for normal cooking
(though they tend to be a little longer).
The steaming setting can also be used without the inset for conventional cooking without pressure.
Note:
When cooking with the steaming setting, you can open the cooker at any time to stir or season the food. If the ener-
gy source is too high, the cooker may become locked for reasons of safety and the release button cannot be pressed
in to open the cooker. If this should happen, remove the cooker from the stove,, wait just a moment, and you will be
able to open the cooker again.
