SMART SETTINGS

The Fast Slow Pro™ features 6 Smart Settings;

Pressure Cook, Slow Cook, Steam, Sear, Sauté,

and Reduce. Pressure and slow cook settings

have a list of commonly used food types with

preset cooking times and temperatures/

pressure levels to give the best results;

however, we suggest experimenting with these

depending on the recipe, amount of food being

cooked, and your personal taste. Alternatively,

you can use the CUSTOM setting to select

your own cooking times and temperatures/

pressure levels.

Your CUSTOM setting will remain in the

memory of the cooker, even after the cooker

is unplugged. To reset to the factory setting,

unplug cooker from the power outlet and

press and hold the START/SELECT dial while

plugging it back in. The letter 'd' and a number

will brieﬂy appear on the screen, conﬁrming

the reset to factory settings.

HANDS-FREE VARIABLE

STEAM RELEASE

The Fast Slow Pro™ features 3 steam

release methods:

Auto Quick

Pressure is released quickly to minimize

overcooking of foods or recipes with short

cook times.

Auto Pulse

Pressure is released in bursts to reduce

disturbance to the food inside, as well as

prevent foam from starchy foods from spraying

out of the release valve.

Natural

Pressure subsides naturally without releasing

steam through the pressure release valve to

prevent the churning up or breaking apart of

sensitive ingredients like stocks and beans

during pressure release.

The desired steam release method can

be selected using the RELEASE button

on the control panel.

The selected steam release method will

automatically start at the end of the

PRESSURE COOK cycle.

Pressing and holding the RELEASE button

while the unit is pressurized will open the

pressure release valve for 30 seconds.

KEEP WARM

The KEEP WARM function maintains hot

foods at safe serving temperature (140°F/60°C

or above) until you are ready to serve. The

default KEEP WARM time is 2 hours and it can

be adjusted up to a maximum of 4 hours.

Turn the TIME dial to adjust the programmed

KEEP WARM time. After the time is set the

LCD screen will continue counting up.

To use KEEP WARM as a standalone

function, press the KEEP WARM button

on the control panel while in the main settings

menu. The LCD screen will display ‘KEEP

WARM’ and the timer will start counting up.

The KEEP WARM function will automatically

switch on after any SLOW COOK cycle;

however it can be toggled on and off in both

PRESSURE COOK and SLOW COOK using

the KEEP WARM button on the control panel.

13

STOP/CANCEL BUTTON AND

STANDBY MODE

Pressing the STOP/CANCEL button during

any cooking cycle will pause the cycle for up to

5 minutes. If the cycle is not restarted during

this time, the cooker will go into standby mode.

Pressing the STOP/CANCEL button during

setup or while the cooker is paused will return

to the previous screen.

Pressing the STOP/CANCEL button from the

main settings menu will switch the cooker to

standby mode.

Press and hold the STOP/CANCEL button for

2 seconds at any time to enter standby mode.

If there is pressure inside the cooker when it

switches to standby mode, it will instead switch

to pressure release mode with Natural release

selected. Press the RELEASE button to switch

to a different release method or press and hold

the RELEASE button for an extended release.

ALTITUDE ADJUST

At higher altitudes, the temperature at which

water boils decreases as a result of the drop

in air pressure. This lower air pressure creates

very different conditions for cooking with a

pressure cooker.

In order to maintain consistent cooking results

at various altitudes, the Fast Slow Pro™ has an

Altitude Adjust feature that adjusts the settings

based on the altitude of your current location.

1. To enter Altitude Adjust mode, press and

hold STOP/CANCEL to activate standby

mode. The button backlight will go out and

the LCD screen will no longer illuminate.

2. Once in standby, press and hold both the

KEEP WARM and RELEASE buttons for

2 seconds. 'ALt' will appear on the screen.

3. Turn the TIME dial to enter the altitude

of your current location. Altitude can be

adjusted from 1,000 ft to 6,000 ft in

1,000 ft increments. The pressure cooker

should not be used above 6,500 ft.

4. Press the START/SELECT dial to conﬁrm.

5. The cooker’s settings have now been

adjusted for your current altitude. To reset

to the factory setting (sea level), unplug

cooker from the power outlet and press

and hold START/SELECT while plugging

it back in. The letter 'd' and a number will

brieﬂy appear on the screen, conﬁrming the

reset to factory settings.

PRESSURE COOK

The PRESSURE COOK setting is a great

option for cooking succulent meats, richly

ﬂavored stews, delicious soups and even

desserts in a fraction of the time and energy

taken by conventional cooking methods.

Pressure cooking is a method of cooking food

and a small amount of liquid in a gasket-

sealed vessel. All the steam from cooking

gets retained inside the vessel, building

pressure. This increase in pressure raises the

temperature of the liquid and steam inside to

well above boiling point, allowing food to be

cooked up to 70% faster.

1. Turn the START/SELECT dial until the

indicator reaches the PRESSURE COOK

setting. Press the START/SELECT dial

to conﬁrm.

2. Turn the START/SELECT dial until the

indicator on the right hand side of the LCD

TIPS FOR PRESSURE &

SLOW COOKING

Rice

• The PRESSURE COOK RICE setting is

designed to cook rice so the rice grains

remain separate and tender. It is suitable for

all types of rice such as long grain, jasmine,

basmati and brown rice.

• When pressure cooking brown rice, increase

the cooking time to 20 minutes.

• Measure or weigh dry rice accurately and

wash well with cold water until water runs

clear. Drain well and place into the removable

cooking bowl.

• Add corresponding water amount. For white

rice use 1.25 parts water to 1 part rice. For

brown rice use 1.5 parts water to 1 part rice.

Refer to the table on this page for more

information.

• After cooking, allow rice to stand in bowl for

5 minutes before stirring and serving.

• Rice will swell and double in size after

cooking. Do not overﬁll the cooking bowl.

The total volume of uncooked rice and liquid

should not exceed the '½' level marking inside

the removable cooking bowl.

Risotto

• The PRESSURE COOK RISOTTO setting is

ideal for making creamy risotto, without all

the stirring and in a fraction of the time.

• Use the SAUTÉ setting to soften onions

and other aromatics, as well as deglaze the

cooking bowl with wine.

• The key to creamy risotto is toasting the

rice grains before the liquid is added. Use

the SAUTÉ setting to toast the rice, stirring

frequently, for 3–5 minutes or until the edges

become transparent and then turn white.

• With little or no evaporation during pressure

cooking, it is important to keep to the ratio

of 1 part rice to 3 parts stock. If adding a lot

of vegetables to the risotto, reduce stock by

a third.

• Rice will swell and double in size after

cooking. Do not overﬁll the cooking bowl.

The total volume of uncooked rice and stock

should not exceed the '½' level marking inside

the removable cooking bowl.

Vegetables

• The PRESSURE COOK VEGETABLES

setting is ideal for cooking both large and

small portions of various hard vegetables.

• Vegetables can be left whole and unpeeled or

cut into smaller pieces and peeled as desired.

If pressure cooking whole vegetables, wash

well and prick 3–4 times with a knife or fork.

• Add 1 cup of water to the cooking bowl along

with prepared vegetables. Vegetables can be

placed directly in the cooking bowl, on the

rack or in the steamer basket.

• The size and age of vegetables will impact

cooking time. Increase the time for larger

vegetables.

• Use the STEAM setting for softer vegetables

such as broccoli, green beans and asparagus.

• Do not overﬁll the cooking bowl. The total

volume of vegetables should not exceed the

'MAX' level marking inside the removable

cooking bowl.

Stock

• The PRESSURE & SLOW COOK STOCK

setting is suitable for making all kinds of

stock, including chicken, beef and vegetable.

• To make a brown stock, use the SEAR setting

to brown bones and vegetables prior to

pressure or slow cooking.

• Vegetables such as onions, carrots and celery

should be cut into large pieces. This will help

keep the stock clear and make it easier to

strain at the end of cooking.

• To shorten the pressurizing time, add cold

water to bowl while still in the SEAR setting

and allow the water to come to a simmer

before pressure cooking.

• Do not overﬁll the cooking bowl. The total

volume of water, bones and/or aromatics

should not exceed the 'MAX' level marking

inside the removable cooking bowl.

Soup

• The PRESSURE & SLOW COOK SOUP

setting is suitable for cooking a variety of

soups from light broths to hearty minestrone

to pureed vegetable soups.

• Use the SAUTÉ setting to soften aromatics

and vegetables prior to pressure or slow

cooking. Use the SEAR setting to brown

meats, bacon or chicken.

• To shorten the pressurizing time, add cold

water/stock to bowl while still in the SAUTÉ

or SEAR setting and allow the water to come

to a simmer before pressure cooking.

• Do not overﬁll the cooking bowl. The total

volume of soup should not exceed the

'MAX' level marking inside the removable

cooking bowl.

Beans

• The PRESSURE & SLOW COOK BEANS

setting is suitable for cooking all types of

dried beans, lentils and other legumes.

• Beans and other legumes can produce a lot of

foam during cooking. The preset NATURAL

steam release setting ensures foam does not

interfere with the steam release valve.

• Cooking times are based on unsoaked

dried beans. To shorten the cooking time,

soak beans in cold water overnight. Discard

soaking water and cook with fresh cold water

for half of the preset cooking time.

• Use a ratio of 1 part beans to 3 parts water.

• Beans and legumes swell and double in size

after cooking. Do not overﬁll the cooking

bowl. The total volume of uncooked legumes

and water should not exceed the '½' level

marking inside the removable cooking bowl.

Chili & Stew

• The PRESSURE & SLOW COOK CHILI &

STEW setting is ideal for cooking ground

meat chilies, meat sauces and hearty stews.
