IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using pressure cookers, basic safety precautions should always be

followed :

1. Read all instructions.

2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.

3. Close supervision is necessary when the pressure cooker is used near

children.

4. Do not place the pressure cooker in a heated oven.

5. Extreme caution must be used when moving a pressure cooker containing

hot liquids.

6. Only use the pressure cooker for the intended use.

7. This appliance cooks under pressure. Improper use may result in a scalding

injury. Make certain unit is properly closed before operating. See “Operating

Instructions”.

8. Do not ﬁll the unit over 2/3 full. When cooking foods that expand during

cooking such as rice or dried vegetables, do not ﬁll the unit over 1/3 full.

Overﬁlling may cause a risk of clogging the vent pipe and developing excess

pressure. See “Food Preparation Instructions”.

9. Be aware that certain foods, such as applesauce, cranberries, pearl

barley, oatmeal or other cereals, split peas, noodles, macaroni, rhubarb, or

spaghetti can foam, froth, and sputter, and clog the pressure release device

(steam vent). These foods should not be cooked in a pressure cooker.

10. Always check the pressure release devices for clogging before use.

11. Do not open the pressure cooker until the unit has cooled and all internal

pressure has been released. If the handles are difﬁcult to push apart, this

indicates that the cooker is still pressurized – do not force it open. Any

pressure in the cooker can be hazardous. See “Operating Instructions”.

12. Do not use this pressure cooker for pressure frying with oil.

13. When the normal operating pressure is reached, turn the heat down so that

all the liquid, which creates the steam, does not evaporate.

14. Always pour a minimum amount of at least 2 L (64 oz) of liquid in the unit.

See «Operating Instructions.

15. For food that expands during cooking, such as rice, dried vegetables or fruit

compotes, never ﬁll your pressure cooker over one third. For some soups, like

pumpkin or courgette, leave your pressure cooker to cool down for a few

minutes, then cool it down entirely by placing it in a bowl of cold water.

16. Always be aware that certain foods, such as cranberries, spelt, millet,

currants, etc., can create moss and squirt, clogging the pressure-relief device

(vent). These foods should not be cooked in a pressure cooker.

17. Never make a recipe with animal milk in your pressure cooker.

18. Do not use rock salt in your pressure cooker, but rather add table salt when

the cooking is nearly ﬁnished.

19. When cooking large pieces of meat and food with a surface skin layer

2

(whole sausages, tongue, poultry, etc.) : we recommend that you prick the

skin using a knife or fork before cooking. During cooking, boiling liquid could

become trapped under the skin and create spatters.

20. Alcohol vapors are ﬂammable. Bring to a boil for about 2 minutes before

placing the lid. Watch your appliance when preparing alcoholbased recipes.

21. Never use aluminium foil unsecured on a container in your pressure cooker.

Always secure with string. Never use cling ﬁlm in your pressure cooker.

22. Do not leave your pressure cooker unsupervised when heating oil or fats.

Continuing to heat a smoking oil will degrade it and may increase the

temperature of the oil enough for ﬂames to appear.

23. Regularly check that the handles of the pressure cooker are ﬁtted correctly.

Tighten them if necessary

24. If during use you notice that any part of your pressure cooker is broken or

cracked, do not attempt to open it under any circumstances; turn off the

heat and leave on the hob to cool down completely before moving it or

opening the lid. Do not use it again and take it to a T-FAL Approved Service

Center for repair.

During cooking

• When the operating valve (A) releases steam in a continuous manner, giving

off a regular sound (PSSSCHT), lower the heat - Fig. 12, adjust the output

of your heat source so that the needle of the pressure gauge remains in the

green zone that corresponds to the valve position: 1, 2 or 3.

• Set a timer to the cooking time listed in the recipe.

• Once the cooking time is over, turn off the heat.

End of cooking

To release the steam:

• Once the heat source has been switched off gradually, turn the operating

valve (A) to position . Make sure that the cooker is positioned so that the

steam is directed away from you. When the pressure

indicator (C) drops : your pressure cooker is no longer under pressure.

• Open the pressure cooker.

If you notice any food or liquid starting to spray out from the valve

when you are releasing steam: set the selector to the cooking initial

position, wait a minute and then gradually turn the operating valve

again, making sure that nothing else spurts out.

Warning: Never use force when removing the lid. Wait for the pressure

indicator to drop down completely and remove the operating valve.

Canning

WARNING: Read the instructions on pressure cooking before using

your pressure cooker/canner for canning. General information on

pressure canning.

The US Department of Agriculture recommends pressure canning as the only

safe way to can meats, ﬁsh, poultry and vegetables.

Fruits and tomatoes may be canned using the boiling water bath method in a

conventional cooking pot, but pressure canning saves time and energy.

Use conventional cooking pots for canning marinades and fruits.

Sometimes, it is better to can foods separately (meat and vegetables, for

example) and then reheat them together later.

HOW TO PRESSURE CAN USING GLASS JARS:

WARNING: Only use standard jars intended for home canning. The

name of the manufacturer of these jars is embedded in the glass.

Never use jars that contained store-bought products.

Warning: Never pressure sterilize foods containing sugar, sugar syrup

or other sweetening liquid.

*depending on model

8

1. Make sure the jars and lids do not have any cracks, chips or sharp edges.

Dispose of any damaged jars and lids.

2. Wash the jars and lids in warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly.

3. Let the jars stand under hot water before ﬁlling them. There is no need

to sterilize the jars before pressure canning. Place the metal lids in hot or

boiling water according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

4. Select fresh, ﬁrm ingredients (not overripe). Sort according to size and

ripeness.

5. Wash and prepare ingredients.

6. Put the ingredients into the jars. Most ingredients can be put into the

jars while raw. Press down raw ingredients, because these tend to shrink

when cooked. Ingredients can be pre-cooked or partially pre-cooked before

being canned. Warm ingredients should not be pressed down after being

ﬁlled into jars.

7. Finish ﬁlling the jars by adding juice or water, leaving appropriate head

space of 1/4-inch to 1 1/2-inches, as indicated in the recipe or canning

instructions.

8. Remove air bubbles by sliding a spatula along the inside of the jars.

9. Clean the rims of the jars and attach the lids according to the

manufacturer’s instructions.

10. For hot foods, you can bring the water to 180 degrees F. ahead of time, but

be careful not to bring the water to a boil. Add 1 tbsp. of vinegar or cream

of tartar to prevent the water from staining the interior of the pressure

canner.

11. Place the jars on the canning rack in the pressure canner. It does not

matter if the jars touch each other - Fig. 3a*.

Always place jars on canning rack ; never place jars directly on the bottom

of pressure canner or on other jars.

Note: the 22Qt-litre pressure canner comes with two canning racks and allows

one rack to be placed above the other, making it possible to process 2 rows of

250 ml (= 8oz) and 500 ml (= 16 oz) jars. Place one rack at the bottom of the

pressure canner and the other on the ﬁrst row of jars - Fig. 3b

12.

Close the pressure canner. When properly closed, the lid and pot handles

are aligned.

13. Position the symbolof the valve (A) opposite the marker (L) - Fig 7.

Place the pressure cooker on high heat until steam begins to exit the

steam release outlet. Continue letting pressure cooker release steam for

10 minutes.

14. After 10 minutes, position the recommended symbol 1, 2 or 3 of the

valve (A) opposite the marker (L).

9

EN

15. When the operating valve releases steam in a continuous manner,

giving off a regulator sound (PSSSCHT), lower the heat – Fig.12, adjust

the output of your heat source so that the needle of the pressure gauge

remains in the zone that corresponds to the valve position: 1, 2 or 3.

WARNING: Cooking times must be strictly adhered to and the pressure

canner should not be placed in a draft while cooking. Canning can take

from 45 to 90 minutes in a large pressure canner ﬁlled to full capacity.

16.

The sterilisation time begins once the operating valve starts to release

some steam.

17. Once the sterilisation time has elapsed, turn off the heat source and allow

the pressure cooker to cool down.

WARNING: Do not rapidly cool the pressure cooker/canner by

submerging it in water or letting it stand under a tap of running water.

Never remove the operating valve to reduce pressure.

18.

Once the pressure has dropped completely, position the symbol of the

valve (A) opposite the marker (L) - Fig 7. Remove the lid carefully.

WARNING: Steam may cause scalding and the operating valve may be

very hot. Protect your hands with oven mitts.

NB : You may hear a whistling noise when moving the operating valve. If no

steam exits the pressure cooker, this is caused by air re-entering the device.

19. Remove the jars with a jar tong. Place them on a hot plate/trivet or several

folded dish towels.

WARNING: Never place the hot jars on a cold or wet surface, this could

cause them to break.

20.

Seal the jars if they do not seal automatically. Even if no liquid has escaped

during the canning process, seal the jar as it is. Do not add liquid, as this

would mean having to restart the canning process from the beginning.

Fruits and vegetables that are not completely covered by the liquid may

turn brown, but they will be properly preserved.

21. Let the jars cool. Keep the jars upright and away from any drafts.

22. After 12 hours, remove the screw-on metal rings from the jars.

If a ring is difﬁcult to remove, cover it with a hot, damp towel for 1 minute to

make the metal expand. After 1 minute, the ring should come off easily. If the

ring still does not come off easily, leave it in place.

WARNING: Never remove rings with force. You risk breaking the

gasket.

23.

Make sure the jars do not have any leaks and that the seals are air-tight.

If the lid is made of metal, make sure it is air-tight by tapping it lightly

with a spoon. If this makes a clear sound, the jar is well sealed. If the lid

domes towards the inside and does not budge when it is tapped, this also

indicates that it the gasket is air-tight.

10

WARNING: If a jar is not sealed or has a leak, use its contents

immediately or restart the canning process within 24 hours.

24.

Wipe the jars with a damp cloth and then dry them. Attach labels

displaying the date and contents. Keep the jars in a cold, dry place.

WARNING: The jars should not be exposed to freezing conditions, as

this may cause the liquid to expand and break the glass.

Troubleshooting

PROBLEM: liquid spills out of the jars. Causes and solutions:

1. The jars are overﬁlled.

When the contents and liquid are brought to a boil, they expand. If there

is no more space, the liquid spills out of the jar. Leave a space of 1/2 to 1

1/2-inches (1.25 to 2.5 cm).

2. There are air bubbles trapped in the jar.

When the contents are brought to a boil, the air bubbles force the liquid to

spill out of the jar.

Before closing the jar, release the trapped air by sliding a plastic spatula

along the inside of the jar.

3. The pressure level ﬂuctuates during the canning process.

If the cooking temperature is not constant, sudden pressure changes can

occur, causing the liquid to spill out. Once the operating valve has begun to

release steam, make sure the heat source ﬂuctuates, slowly going up and

down. Avoid pressure changes caused by the heat source.

4. The pressure drops rapidly after the canning process.

If the pressure is reduced too quickly, for example by placing the pressure

cooker under cold running water or frequently moving the operating valve,

the internal pressure may fall too quickly in both the pressure cooker and the

jars, making the liquid spill out.

Let the pressure cooker cool at room temperature. After 40 to 45 minutes,

check if the pressure has dropped by moving the operating valve.

PROBLEM: the jars break. Causes and solutions:

1. Supermarket jars having contained store-bought contents were

used instead of specialty canning jars.

Only use jars speciﬁcally intended for home canning.

2. Damaged jars were used.

Used jars may have invisible cracks. The jars may also have been damaged

during transport. Each jar must be carefully inspected before being used.

11

EN

3. The jars were placed directly on the bottom of the pressure canner

and not on the caning rack.

Always use the canning rack.

4. The hot jars were placed on a wet or cold surface, or they were

exposed to drafts of air.

Place the jars on a dry, heat-proof surface at room temperature or on a

dry, folded kitchen towels. Avoid air drafts.

How to close the jars

Carefully follow the instructions given by

the lid manufacturer.

Use a metal ring with an air-tight coating

and a screw on metal ring that ﬁts standard

canning jars.

1. Fill the jar. Wipe down the rim.

2. Place the metal disks in hot or boiling

water according to the manufacturer’s

instructions.

3. Place the disk on the jar, making sure that it

is placed directly on the glass and creating

an air-tight gasket.

4. Screw on the ring using only the strength of your hands. Do not use any

tools to screw the ring closed. If the ring is screwed too tightly, this may

cause the disk to warp.

5. When canned properly, this jar will seal itself automatically. Do not

retighten the ring once the jar is removed from the pressure canner as

they eventually will be removed when storing the canned food.

Warning: know how to detect spoiled foods

A leaky jar or a damaged lid are signs that the jar’s contents may have spoiled.

Check if the contents have an odd colour or give off a strange smell.

Never taste food you think is spoiled. Dispose of immediately. Certain foods

may contain botulinum toxin (causing botulism) even if their smell and taste

appear normal. For this reason, boil non-acidic vegetables and meats for

10 minutes before eating. Other canned foods should also be boiled before

being eaten.

Safety Features

Your pressure cooker is ﬁtted with several safety features:

• Safe closure feature:

- If the device has not been properly closed, the pressure indicator (C)

cannot rise and therefore pressure cannot build in the device.

• Safe opening feature:

- During operation, the pressure indicator (C) rises completely, locking the

handles and preventing the pressure cooker from being opened. This

locking system is deactivated when the pressure indicator drops, i.e. when

the pressure cooker is no longer under pressure.

- Never touch the pressure indicator (C) while the pressure cooker is in use

or while you want to open the lid.

• Two overpressure safety features:

- First feature: the safety valve (D) releases pressure and steam exits

horizontally towards the outer lid - Fig 13.

- Second feature: the gasket (H) allows steam to escape all around the

pot - Fig 14.

If one of the overpressure safety features is triggered:

• Turn off the heat source;

• Let the pressure cooker cool down;

• Open it;

• Check and clean the operating valve (A), the steam release outlet (B), the

safety valve (D) and the gasket (H).

Recommendations for Use

1 - Steam is very hot when it leaves the operating valve.

2 - Once the pressure indicator has risen, you can no longer open the

pressure cooker.

3 - As with any cooking utensil, close supervision must be ensured,

especially when using the pressure cooker near children.

4 - Watch out for the jet of steam.

5 - To move the pressure cooker, use the two pot handles.

6 - Never leave food in your pressure cooker.

7 - Never use bleach or products containing chlorine, as these may alter

the quality of the aluminum.

8 - Do not put any part of your pressure cooker in the dishwasher. Do not

leave the lid soaking in water.
