Safety Features of Your Pressure Cooker
To ensure user safety, this appliance
has several safety features built-in.
Safe Lid Closing System
This pressure cooker is equipped with
a feature that prevents any increase in
pressure if the cover is not properly
closed. If the cover is not positioned
correctly, pressure cannot build-up.
Steam will escape from the sides of the
pressure cooker cover.
Safe Lid Opening System
This appliance is equipped with a
safety feature that prevents the
pressure cooker cover from opening if
the pressure in the cooker is too high.
The safety float valve will prevent the
cover from opening until the pressure
has been released from the cooker and
the valve has dropped.
Automatic Pressure Control
If the pressure cooker has built up
excess pressure, the pressure release
valve will automatically discharge
steam to regulate safe pressure limits
in the cooker.
Depressurizing Control
If for any reason the auto pressure
relief valve does not function and
pressure builds, the cooker will
automatically vent excess pressure
from around the lid.
Thermostat Control
When the internal temperature of the
pressure cooker increases beyond the
preset temperatures, the power to the
pressure cooker will be cut off.
Ultra Thermostat Control
There is a fail safe sensor that is set to
trip if the temperature and pressure in
the pressure cooker are beyond safety
limits. This safety system de-
pressurizes the pressure cooker and
terminates the power to the unit.
Note: If this occurs, call customer
service at 1 (800) 798-7398.
