capabilities or lack of experience and

knowledge if they have been given

supervision or instruction concerning use

of the appliance in a safe way and if they

understand the hazards involved.

• 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

page 42 “Problem & Solutions” section

“The lid does not open once the steam is

released”.

• Use only the appropriate spare parts for

your model. This is particularly important for

the sealing gasket, the cooking bowl and its

safety devices.

• Do not damage the sealing gasket. If it is

damaged, have it replaced in an Approved

Service Centre.

• The heat source necessary for cooking is

included in the appliance.

• Do not place the appliance in a heated oven

or on a hot hob. Do not place the appliance

close to an open flame or a flammable

object.

• Do not heat the cooking bowl with any

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.

• The guarantee does not cover the abnormal

wear and tear of the cooking bowl.

• In accordance with current regulations,

before disposing of an appliance no longer

needed, the appliance must be rendered

inoperative (by unplugging it and cutting off

the supply cord).

• Use only spare parts sold in an Approved

Service Centre.
