KEEP THESE

INSTRUCTIONS.

3. Technical information

Working pressure: 0,6 bar (setting 1) and 1,0 bar

(setting 2).

Usable capacity: 6 litres.

Licence holder: IKEA of Sweden, Tulpanvägen 8, SE-343

81 ÄLMHULT, Sweden.

Model: 90483150

The pressure cooker is UL certified.

4. Safety information

•

The pressure cooker comes with a pressure

regulator in the lid which keeps the desired

pressure setting constant.

•

The pressure cooker has several safety systems

to ensure that your pressure cooker will function

safely, even in the event of a technical fault.

The pressure regulator 8 ensures the pressure

remains constant within the pressure cooker. It

is possible that some steam may continuously

escape during use. The safety valve 4 releases

any excess pressure if the pressure regulator

malfunctions. If the pressure regulator 8 and the

safety valve 4 both malfunction, excess pressure

will escape through the safety pressure window 7.

The release button for the lid 3 can only be pressed

down to open the pot when the pressure has been

equalised and the red safety valve 4 drops down.

General safety advice

Be sure to check before every use that the pressure

regulator 8 and the safety valve 4 are manoeuvrable

and not blocked up (see section "Instructions for use").

Always ensure that the pressure cooker is closed

correctly before putting it on the hob (see section

"Instructions for use").

The pressure regulator 8 should never be covered by

any objects.

Always ensure the pressure regulator 8 is facing away

from you during use and that it is not facing where

others may pass by. In the event of a fault, a lot of

steam will escape.

Should steam escape from the safety valve 4 or the

safety pressure window 7, immediately turn off the

heat supply since the pressure inside the pressure

cooker is too high. Do not continue to use the

pressure cooker until the problem has been corrected

(see section "Troubleshooting").

To avoid damaging the pressure cooker, you should

ensure that the pot always contains at least 0.25 litres

of liquid, so that sufficient steam can be produced and

the pressure cooker doesn't overheat and boil dry.

WARNING: Repairs to the pressure cooker may only be

made by an authorised professional.

Good to know

The pressure cooker is suitable for use on all types of

hobs, including induction hobs.

The pressure cooker can be used as a traditional

pot (without the lid) to brown food before pressure

cooking.

By placing the pressure cooker on a hob with the same

or a smaller diameter you can save energy.

Always lift the pressure cooker when moving it on a

glass ceramic hob to avoid the risk of scratching the

hob.

Bear in mind that the pressure cooker gets hot during

use. Always handle with pot holders.

Never let the pressure cooker boil dry, this would

seriously damage it.

The pressure cooker is designed exclusively for

cooking, not for storing food. Food that is stored in

the pressure cooker for a longer period may affect the

surface and take on the taste of metal.

When the pressure cooker is used on a gas hob make

certain the flames do not touch the handles.

5. Instructions for use

Before each use

Before cooking with the pressure cooker, you should

check all the safety functions to avoid causing any

damage to the pressure cooker.

1. Check that the openings for the pressure regulator

8 on the inside of the lid are clean.

2. Should this not be the case, clean the pressure

regulator 8 (see section "Cleaning and storing").

3. Check that the safety valve 4 is movable and not

stuck.

4. Check that the gasket 6 is not damaged in any way,

i.e. that it is not split. Note! Over time the gasket

can become hard and will therefore no longer

provide an air-tight seal. This will lead to steam

escaping from the rim of the lid and the gasket

will therefore require replacing. For replacement

gaskets, please contact your nearest IKEA Store/

Customer service or visit www.ikea.com.

How to use the pressure cooker

1. Fill the pot with food and/or liquid. Caution! Never

fill the pressure cooker with food and liquid above

the "MAX" mark on the inside of the pot. This

corresponds to a maximum of 4 litres (for pressure

cooker with usable capacity of 6 litres). When

cooking food that swells, such as rice or pulses,

you should never fill the pot above the "½" mark

on the inside of the pot. This will prevent the food

from reaching the lid and potentially blocking the

pressure regulator and the safety valve.

2. Place the lid 5 on the pot 10 in such a way that the

circular mark on the lid is pointing to the circular

mark on the pot handle's lower part 1.
