• Li tout enstriksyon yo byen anvan ou itilize aparèy la.
• Pa manyen sifas cho. Sèvi ak manch oswa bouton.
• Fèmen sipèvizyon nesesè lè yo itilize cuisinier a presyon tou pre timoun yo.
• Pa mete recho a presyon nan yon fou chofe.
• Ou dwe pran anpil prekosyon lè w ap deplase yon cuisinier a presyon ki gen likid cho.
• Do not use the pressure cooker for purposes other than intended.
• Aparèy sa a kwit anba presyon. Si ou pa itilize l byen, ou ka boule. Asire w ke aparèy la byen fèmen anvan ou itilize l. Gade seksyon "Fèmen Kouvèti a".
• Never force open a pressure cooker. Make certain the internal pressure has completely dropped before opening. See "Opening the Lid" section.
• Do not fill the unit over 2/3 full. When cooking foods that expand during cooking, such as rice or dehydrated vegetables, do not fill the unit over 1/2 full. Overfilling may cause a risk of clogging the vent pipe and developing excess pressure.
• Fè atansyon ke sèten manje, tankou konpòt pòm, kannèj, lòj pèl, farin avwàn oswa lòt sereyal, pwa fann, nouy, makaroni, rubarb, oswa espageti ka fè kim, mous, pete, epi bouche aparèy lage presyon an. Manje sa yo pa ta dwe kwit nan yon chodyè presyon.

1. Dekonpoze: Ak anpil atansyon retire tout eleman nan anbalaj la.
2. Netwayaj inisyal: Wash all parts (pots, lids, gasket, valves, steamer basket) with warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely. Ensure no packaging materials remain.
3. Enstalasyon Joint: Ensure the silicone gasket is correctly seated inside the rim of the pressure lid. It should fit snugly and evenly.
4. Tcheke valv: Verify that the pressure regulating valve and safety valve are clear of any obstructions and move freely.

Enstriksyon Operasyon

Swiv etap sa yo pou kwit manje anba presyon san danje epi efikas:

1. Filling the Pot

• Add food and liquid to the pressure pot. Always add at least 250ml (1 cup) of liquid to generate steam.
• Liy Ranpli Maksimòm: Never fill the pot more than 2/3 full. For foods that expand (e.g., rice, beans, grains), do not fill more than 1/2 full.

2. Fèmen Kouvèti a

• Place the pressure lid onto the pot, aligning the lid with the pot handles.
• Rotate the central knob on the lid to engage the locking mechanism. Ensure the lid is securely closed and the handles are aligned. The safety pin should be in the down position.

3. Pressure Regulation

• The Ultima Duo features a pressure regulating valve with multiple settings. Rotate the orange-ringed knob to select the desired pressure level based on your recipe.
• Common settings include:
          Presyon ki ba: For delicate foods like fish, vegetables.
          Segondè presyon: For meats, stews, and foods requiring longer cooking times.

4. Cooking Under Pressure

• Place the pressure cooker on a suitable heat source (gas, electric, ceramic, induction). Use a burner size appropriate for the pot's base.
• Heat on high until the pressure indicator rises and steam begins to escape steadily from the valve.
• Once full pressure is reached (indicated by the pressure indicator and steady steam release), reduce the heat to maintain a gentle, steady steam flow. Start timing your recipe.

5. ReleasinPresyon g

There are generally two methods for releasinpresyon g:

• Liberasyon natirèl: Remove the cooker from the heat source and allow it to cool down naturally. The pressure will gradually decrease, and the safety pin will drop. This method is ideal for foods that benefit from continued cooking, such as stews and roasts.
• Liberasyon rapid: For foods that require precise cooking times (e.g., vegetables), you can carefully turn the pressure regulating valve to the steam release position. Be cautious of the hot steam escaping. Once the safety pin drops, all pressure has been released.

6. Ouvri kouvèti a

• Only open the lid when the safety pin has fully dropped, indicating no internal pressure.
• Rotate the central knob on the lid to unlock the mechanism, then lift the lid away from you to avoid steam burns.

• Swen Joint: Regularly inspect the silicone gasket for cracks, tears, or hardening. Replace if any damage is observed, as a faulty gasket can prevent pressure from building or cause steam leaks.
• Netwayaj Valv: Ensure the pressure regulating valve and safety valve are free from food particles or blockages. Use a small brush if necessary to clear any residue.
