HINTS AND TIPS ABOUT YOUR DIGITAL COOKER

• To ensure the best cooking performance when pressure cooking, always make sure the

recipe calls for at least 1 cup of water or other liquid so enough steam can be generated to

create pressure.

• After a period of time the rubber gasket may shrink, harden, or otherwise become

distorted under normal use. When this happens or other damage occurs, do not use the

appliance. The rubber gasket should be replaced. Contact the Customer Satisfaction

Department (800-288-4545).

• When using the HIGH or LOW pressure settings, the timer will not start counting ‘down’

until sufcient steam pressure is generated.

• When pressure cooking, if you are not sure how much cooking time is necessary, it is

better to ‘under’ cook. Then use the “quick release” method, remove Lid and check for

doneness.

• Never ll the removable cooking pot more than half full with food or 4/5 full with liquid.

• Make sure this appliance is plugged into a separate 120 volt electrical outlet. A circuit

overload may occur if used with another appliance at the same time.

• Tougher, less expensive cuts of meats are better suited for your digital pressure cooker

because the steam pressure helps break down the tough bers in the meat making them

more tender and avorful.

• Fresh fruit should be cooked under low pressure.

• When pressure cooking beans, add a teaspoon of oil to the water to reduce the amount of

foaming.

• Any liquid such as oils, oil-based marinades and dressings should not be used pressure

cooking.

• Liquids that contain water can be used when pressure cooking. These include wine,

beer, stocks, tomato and other vegetable and fruit juices. Wine must be mixed with an

equivalent amount of water because it evaporates quickly during cooking.

• Frozen foods can be cooked if meat is one-inch or less in thickness, do not alter the

cooking times, appliance will begin the timer after set internal temperature is reached.

• During the pressure building process, you may notice steam escaping from the pressure

regulating valve. Carefully adjust the valve by moving it gently or turning it side to side

gently using tongs or similar utensil until it seals properly.

• If steam is escaping around the lid, it means that the rubber gasket may not be sealed.

Cancel the cooking process, release pressure manually or naturally, remove the lid and

check the rubber gasket for damage or incorrectly installed. Re-install after examination

and start cooking process.

• NOTE: The boiling point of water decreases as the altitude increases, and this changes

your appliance performance. When pressure cooking at higher altitudes, the following

will apply: Add 5% to the cooking time for every 1,000 feet above the rst 2,000 feet.

Example: At 3,000 feet add 5%; 4,000 feet add 10%; 5,000 feet add 15%; etc..

English

Vegetables:

• When pressure cooking vegetables use HIGH pressure setting and QUICK RELEASE

for pressure release.

• Before pressure cooking fresh vegetables, add 1 cup water and place a steam rack into

removable cooking pot. Place a layer of vegetables on rack. Cover and lock lid in place.

Turn regulator knob to ‘SEAL’. Cook for time indicated below.

• Remove vegetables, add desired seasonings and serve. NOTE: Cooking times that

exceed 7 minutes, add an extra 1/2 C water for each additional 5 minutes cooking time

so appliance does not boil dry.

démonter les pièces ainsi qu’avant le nettoyage.

6. Ne pas faire fonctionner d’appareil dont la che ou le cordon est endommagé, qui a subi une

défaillance ou qui a été endommagé de quelque façon que ce soit. Retourner l’appareil à la division

des services de l’usine NESCO aux ns d’examen, de réparation ou d’ajustement.

7. Ne pas placer l’appareil dans un four chauffé, sur un brûleur à gaz ou électrique chaud, ni dans les environs.

8. N’utiliser que les accessoires recommandés par le fabricant.

9. Ne pas utiliser l’appareil à l’extérieur ou pour un usage autre que celui prévu.

10. Ne pas laisser le cordon suspendu sur le bord d’une table ou en contact avec des surfaces chaudes.

11. Operar aparato sólo cuando todas las partes participen plenamente y se aprieta.

12. Pour réduire le risque de décharge électrique, ne cuisinez que dans la marmite amovible.

13. Ne touchez pas les surfaces chaudes. Utilisez les poignées ou les boutons.

14. Branchez toujours la che dans l’appareil d’abord, ensuite branchez le cordon dans la

prise de courant. Pour débrancher, placez n’importe quel bouton de contrôle sur Off et

enlevez ensuite la che de la prise de courant.

15. Exercez la plus grande prudence lorsque vous déplacez un appareil qui contient de

l’huile chaude ou un autre liquide chaud.

16. MISE EN GARDE: ne faites jamais frire et n’utilisez jamais la pression pour frire des aliments dans

cet appareil. Cela est dangereux et pourrait causer des dommages ou des blessures graves.

17. Lorsque vous relâchez la pression, éloignez vos mains et votre visage de la soupape de régulation de pression.

18. Ne couvrez pas l’appareil et ne l’utilisez pas près de matériaux inammables, par

exemple les rideaux ou les murs.

19. Ne remplissez pas la marmite au-delà des 4/5. Lorsque vous cuisinez des aliments qui augmentent de

volume durant la cuisson, par exemple le riz ou les légumes séchés, ne remplissez pas l’unité au-delà de la

moitié. Si vous ne le faites pas, vous pourriez causer des blessures aux personnes et endommager l’appareil.

20. N’oubliez pas que certains aliments comme la purée de pomme, les canneberges, l’orge perlée, le

gruau, les pois cassés, les nouilles, les macaronis, la rhubarbe ou les spaghettis peuvent mousser,

former de l’écume et se répandre en obstruant le mécanisme de relâchement de la pression (volet

d’aération). Il ne faut pas cuisiner ces aliments dans une marmite à pression.

CONSERVER CES DIRECTIVES

Fiche polarisée : Cet appareil possède une che polarisée (une branche est plus large que l’autre). Pour

réduire le risque de choc électrique, la che est conçue pour entrer dans la prise polarisée d’une seule

façon. Si la che n’entre pas correctement dans la prise, retourner la che. Si elle n’entre toujours pas

correctement, communiquer avec un électricien qualié. Ne pas tenter de modier la che.

Directives relatives au cordon court : Un cordon d’alimentation court est fourni dans le but de

réduire le risque de s’y empêtrer ou de trébucher. Des rallonges peuvent convenir si elles sont utilisées

avec prudence. En cas d’utilisation d’une rallonge, les caractéristiques électriques indiquées sur le

cordon doivent être au moins celles inscrites sur l’appareil. Le cordon long ne doit pas s’étendre d’un

côté à l’autre du dessus de la table où les enfants pourraient le tirer ou quelqu’un pourrait trébucher

involontairement.
