HINTS AND TIPS

This appliance can be used to have your breakfast, lunch or dinner ready and warm by the time you wake up, return from work or from outside activity with the help of delay timer function. Do not use DELAY TIMER and KEEP WARM functions for recipes which contain foods that can turn bad easily (e.g. raw eggs or raw fish).

• To avoid scratching of your appliance remove hard shells of crustaceans or shellfish before cooking.
• P09 does not allow selection of keep warm or delay timer function.
• P03 and P09 do not allow adjusting default cooking time.
• Smaller food normally requires less cooking time than larger food.
• It is recommended to cook defrosted food and cook from a refrigerated temperature to shorten the cooking time.
• It is recommended to only use nylon, heat-proof plastic or wooden cooking utensils. Metal utensils may become hot and damage the non-stick surface. Always remove utensils from the appliance. Do not leave them in the appliance during use.
• It is recommended to clean all accessories used after each use.
• Do not use the appliance with canned products.
• You can also use the appliance to reheat food. Place food into the appliance, and then select the KEEP WARM program. To create pressure and avoid burned food, add a small amount of liquid to the removable container (21) before closing the lid (22), if required.
• Always ensure to add at least 1 cup of liquid into the removable container (21). It creates steam that is necessary to build up pressure. Do not use oil or oil-based liquids under pressure. When using wine, add an equivalent amount of water as it evaporates too quickly.
• The cooking time countdown only starts when inner pressure / temperature reaches suitable levels.
• When cooking under pressure, the food continues to be cooked after the cooking time has elapsed. In case of uncertainty about the time needed to cook the food, reduce the cooking time and use the quick release method to shorten the cooking process and waiting time. Remove the lid (22) and check for doneness. Cook for longer, if required.
• When cooking beans, add a teaspoon of oil to the water to reduce the amount of foam.
• Meat cuts of lesser quality are tougher but better suited for cooking under pressure as it breaks down fibers and allows more tenderness.
