The following safeguards are recommended by most portable appliance manufacturers. IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS When using pressure cookers, basic safety precautions should always be followed: 1. Read all instructions. 2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. 3. Close supervision is necessary when the pressure cooker is used near children. 4. Do not place the pressure cooker in a heated oven. 5. Extreme caution must be used when moving a pressure cooker containing hot liquids. 6. Do not use pressure cooker for other than intended use. 7. This appliance cooks under pressure. Improper use may result in scalding injury. Make certain unit is properly closed before operating. See Operating Instructions. 8. Do not fill the unit over two thirds full. When cooking foods that expand during cooking such as rice or dried vegetables, do not fill the unit over one half full. Over filling may cause a risk of clogging the vent pipe and developing excess pressure. See Food Preparation Instructions. 9. Be aware that certain foods, such as applesauce, cranberries, pearl barley, oatmeal or other cereals, split peas, noodles, macaroni, rhubarb, or spaghetti can foam, froth, and sputter, and clog the pressures release device (steam vent). These foods should not be cooked in a pressure cooker. 10. Always check the pressure release devices for clogging before use. 11. Do not open the pressure cooker until the unit has cooled and all internal pressure has been released. If the handles are difficult to push apart, this indicates that the cooker is still pressurized - do not force it open. Remove the pressure regulator an run cold water over the cooker to cool it to reduce the internal pressure. Any pressure in the cooker can be hazardous. See Operating Instructions. 12. Do not use this pressure cooker for pressure frying with oil. 13. When the normal operating pressure is reached, turn the heat down so all the liquid, which creates the steam, does not evaporate. 14.

We appreciate the confidence you have placed in our company by selecting one of our many pressure cookers, and we are confident that it will give you many years of excellent service. Surrounded by endless myths, pressure cookers are probably the least understood of cookware. This is unfortunate since pressure cookers provide many advantages over traditional cooking. First and foremost, most foods can be cooked in a fraction of the time it normally would take, in most cases, cooking in up to one third of the time. Since the food is being cooked for such a shorter period, it is less likely to lose its color and flavor, as well as many of vital minerals and vitamins that are normally washed away when cooking in large quantities of water in an open pot, for longer periods of time. Made from high-quality, heavy-gauge, 18/10 stainless steel, Fagor pressure cookers are manufactured and designed Splendid Pressure Cooker Line with a concern for function and safety, meeting all international safety standards.

The pressure release valves signal when to lower or raise the burner heat in order to maintain the level of pressure desired. We know that once you begin using your Fagor Pressu...
