• Children shall not play with the appliance.
• Place the appliance on a flat stable,
heatproof work surface, away from any
water splashes or any sources of heat.
• Never place or use the appliance close
to a wall or below a wall cupboard as the
steam produced by the appliance can
cause damage.
• Do not place your appliance near a heat
source in operation (hob, household
appliance, etc.).
• Do not fill your appliance to more than
the MAX mark on the bowl. Do not fill it
more than half full for food that expands
during cooking, such as rice, dried
vegetables. Reduce the volume of water
to avoid the risk of boiling over.
• When in operation, never leave the
appliance unattended.
• Please follow the recommendations on
the volume of food and water to avoid
the risk of boiling over which can damage
your appliance and cause injury.
• Before using your appliance, check that
the manometric rod and the safety valve
are clean (see section Cleaning and
maintenance).
• Do not place any foreign objects in the
pressure release system. Do not replace
any of the safety device yourself.
• When you open the lid, first unlock it by
holding the lid open/close handle. Then
position your arms in alignment with the
side carrying handles, hold each side lid
handle with your hands and raise the lid.
• Be careful also about the risk of scalding
from the steam coming out of the
appliance when you open the lid. First
open the lid very slightly to allow the
steam to escape gently.
• Never force the appliance open. Make
sure that the inside pressure has returned
to normal. Do not open the lid when the
appliance is under pressure. To do so,
see pages 44-46 “Problem & Solutions”
section “The lid does not open once the
steam is released”.

other heat source than the heating plate
of the appliance and do not use any
other bowl. Do not use the cooking bowl
with other appliances.
• Move the appliance with great care when
it is under pressure. Do not touch the
hot surfaces. Use the carrying handles
when moving it and wear oven gloves, if
necessary. Do not use the lid handle to
lift the appliance.
• Do not use the appliance for other than
the intended purpose.
• This appliance is not a steriliser. Do not
use it to sterilise jars.
• The appliance cooks food under pressure.
Incorrect use may cause risks of burns
due to steam.
• Make sure that the appliance is properly
closed before bringing it up to pressure
(see Instructions for use).
• Do not use the appliance empty, without
its bowl or without liquid inside the bowl
if using a mode cooking under pressure.
This could cause serious damage to the
appliance.
• After cooking meat which has an outer
layer of skin (such as ox tongue), which
could swell due to the effects of pressure,
do not pierce the skin after cooking if it
appears swollen: you could get burnt.
Pierce it before cooking.
• When cooking food with a thick texture
(chick peas, rhubarb, compotes, etc.),
shake the appliance slightly before
opening it to ensure that the food or
cooking juices do not spurt out.
• Do not use the appliance to deep fry food
in oil. Only browning is allowed.
• In browning mode, be careful of risks of
burns caused by spattering when you add
food or ingredients into the hot bowl.
• During cooking and automatic steam
release at the end of cooking, the
appliance releases heat and steam.
Keep your face and hands away from
the appliance to avoid scalding. Do not
touch the lid during cooking.
• Do not use a cloth or anything else
between the lid and the housing to
leave the lid ajar. This can permanently
damage the gasket.
• Do not touch the safety devices, except
while cleaning and maintaining the
appliance in accordance with the
instructions given.
• Make sure that the bottom of the cooking
bowl and the heating element are always
clean. Make sure that the central part of
the heating plate is mobile.
• Do not fill up the interior body of your
appliance without its cooking bowl.
• Use a plastic or wooden spoon to prevent
any damage to the non-stick coating of
the bowl. Do not cut food directly in the
cooking bowl.
• If a great deal of steam is released from
the rim of the lid, unplug the power cord
at once and check whether the safety
devices are clean. If necessary, send the
appliance to an Approved Service Centre
for repair.
• Do not carry the appliance by holding it
by the handles of the removable bowl.
Always use the two side handles on the
housing of the appliance. Wear oven
gloves if the appliance is hot. For more
safety, make sure that the lid is locked
before transporting the appliance.
• If pressure is released continuously through
the valve of the appliance (for more than
1 minute) while pressure cooking, send the
appliance to a Approved Service Centre for
repair.
• Do not use a damaged appliance. Take it
to your Approved Service Centre.
