2. Cold Water Release Method:

this method is used to release

pressure as quickly as possible,

and is primarily used for vegetables,

seafood and other tender foods

that can quickly overcook. To use

this method, remove the pressure

cooker from the burner, place in the

sink and run cold tap water gently

over the lid until steam dissipates

and the pressure indicator is

lowered (Fig 12). When putting the

cooker in the sink, tilt it so the

cold water will run down the sides

of the cooker. Once the pressure

has been released completely and

the pressure indicator has dropped,

go to step # 4 in this section.

NEVER IMMERSE THE PRESSURE

COOKER IN WATER.

3. Automatic Release Method: When

using the automatic release method,

turn the dial on the operating valve

to the steam release position (steam

drawing position, fig. 7), and the

steam will be released automatically.

Once the steam has totally been

released and the pressure indicator

has dropped, go to #4 in this section

(below).

4. After all the pressure has been released

and the yellow pressure indicator has

dropped, slide the pressure cooker

lock down towards the end of the

handle (fig. 4). Hold the pot handle

with your left hand and slide the lid

handle to the right with your right

hand. Even though you have already

released the pressure, never open

the pressure cooker towards your

face since there may be intense

cooking steam still inside the unit.

To avoid the risk of scalding, let the

droplets of condensed water drip

back from the lid into the cooker.

5. Opening during cooking. If you should

need to open the pressure cooker

during the cooking process, it must

be depressurized first as described

in this section. We recommend using

the automatic release method for

this purpose, as this method will

cool down your pressure cooker the

least, hence aiding to build pressure

again faster to continue cooking. The

lid will be hot, so be careful when

opening and closing it; to reduce

the risk of burns, only touch the

handles. Remember that you are

interrupting the cooking process

by opening the cooker; when you

continue cooking, you must adjust

the remaining cooking time and set

the timer accordingly.

6. Never force the cooker open. It

may only be opened if the pressure

indicator has dropped into its socket

completely and no more steam

escapes when the safety lock is

moved to the open position.
