PURPOSE OF USE The electric pressure cooker is intended for cooking meals at high pressure, which enables the cooking time to be reduced by more than half,

whilst retaining flavours and aromas of the cooked meal. The pressure cooker can be used for cooking meals such as soups, rice, stewed meals, goulash and all other meals that can be cooked in standard

pressure cookers or in stew pots. Furthermore, it enables the cooking of legumes (beans, chickpeas, etc.) without pre-soaking and it is also suitable for cooking healthier meals.

The pressure cooker can be used either in automatic mode by selecting one of the preset programs without having to perform any other settings or in manual mode where the cooking parameters can be set based on your needs and experience.

A further function of the pressure cooker is delayed cooking; an automatic function for keeping a meal warm after it has finished cooking; or cooking without the lid.

Attention: This appliance is not intended to be operated using an external timer switch or a remote control system.

- 9 - 06/2019 Copyright 2019, Fast R, a.s.

BEFORE FIRST USE Open the lid A1 as described in chapter OPENING THE LID OF A COLD PRESSURE COOKER. Take out the inner pot A14 and, together with

accessories A26 to A28, thoroughly wash it in warm water using neutral kitchen detergent. Then rinse all these parts with clean water and dry them thoroughly with a fine wiping cloth. The inner pot and accessories can also be washed in a dishwasher.

Wipe the inside of the built-in outer pot A19 with a lightly dampened, soft wiping cloth and then wipe dry using a dry, clean wiping cloth.

CORRECTLY HANDLING THE LID

OPENING THE LID OF A COLD PRESSURE COOKER Grasp the lid A1 by the handle A3 and turn it anticlockwise all the way to release it. If the pressure cooker is connected to the mains power

supply, the display will show "OPEN". Lift the lid upwards and put it aside in a suitable location. If the pressure cooker is connected to the mains power supply, the display will show

four dashes.

OPENING THE LID DURING AND AFTER COOKING When cooking and after finishing cooking, it is only possible to open the lid once the steam is released from inside the pressure cooker. When

it is not possible to turn the lid, it means that there is still steam inside the pressure cooker, the temperature of which still presents a danger to you. If this happens, either hold down button A2 or turn the steam release valve to position . Steam will flow out continuously from the valve. As soon as it stops flowing out, the lid can be open.

Warning: When releasing steam, keep away from the escaping steam to avoid being scalded. Never place your hands, arms or face in the vicinity of the valve A7 when it is releasing steam.

Attention: When cooking food such as porridge or edible seaweed, never release the steam by pressing button A2, but rather allow the pressure cooker to automatically release the pressure itself.

When all the steam has been released, first visually check the position of the safety float valve A11, see chapter FUNCTION OF THE SAFETY FLOAT VALVE. If the valve is extended out closer to the lid, then there is still pressure inside the pressure cooker. Wait until the valve retracts on its own deeper into the hole and only thereafter open and remove the lid.

Warning: When the valve A11 is extended out closer to the lid, never handle the pressure cooker or move it around, rather always wait until the valve retracts on its own. Never open the lid using excessive force!

CLOSING THE LID Prior to putting on the lid A1, always first check:

- that the gasket A8 is correctly seated in its place in the holder A13 on the underside of the lid. - that the cover A12 of the pressure valve is in its place and is clean. If the cover is soiled, clean it before continuing. Grasp the lid by the handle A3, put it down horizontally on the top side of the pressure cooker unit while at the same time turning it clockwise

all the way so that the points of the alignment symbols A5 and A16 are facing each other. A properly secured lid is indicated by an audible click sound. If the pressure cooker is connected to the mains power supply, the display will show four dashes.

Attention: Never close the lid using excessive force!

FUNCTION OF THE SAFETY FLOAT VALVE When the temperature and pressure inside the pressure cooker reaches a certain level during the cooking process, the steam will push the safety

float valve A11 out the hole in the lid A8. This activates a mechanism that locks the lid in place and prevents it from being opened. Thereby, the valve serves as a safety mechanism that prevents the lid from being opened during the cooking process as well as a visual indication that there is pressure inside the closed pressure cooker.

Before opening and removing the lid, always first visually check the position of the valve A11. If the valve is extended out closer to the lid, then there is still pressure inside the pressure cooker. Wait until the valve retracts on its own deeper into the hole and only thereafter open and remove the lid.

Note: In the event that the safety float valve A11 does not retract into the hole in the lid even after a very long time. (e.g. an hour or more) from the time that the pressure cooker is turned off and steam has been released and the outer casing is already cold, then it is possible that the valve may have jammed, e.g. by the effect of jammed food or due to the valve sticking to the lid with food. If this occurs, then carefully remove the lid in the same way as with a cold pressure cooker. When opening the lid, as a precaution, stand in such a way that no part of your body may be scalded.

OTHER SAFETY ELEMENTS OF THE PRESSURE COOKER As soon as the pressure inside exceeds a certain value, the pressure cooker will automatically release steam through the valve. At the same time,

the valve is protected against being soiled by food by means of the cover. If the pressure inside the pressure cooker is high and is unsafe for the user, it will not be possible to open the lid.

- 10 - 06/2019 Copyright 2019, Fast R, a.s.

If the lid is not properly closed, the pressure cooker will not permit the cooking process to start. If the removable inner pot is not inserted, it will not be possible to start the cooking process. The temperature sensor A24 monitors the temperature inside the pressure cooker and automatically adjusts the temperature of the cooking

process. If for any reason the temperature inside the pressure cooker were to exceed a certain limit, the pressure cooker will automatically disconnect the power supply and will not permit cooking to continue.

In the event of overvoltage from the mains power supply, a fuse will disengage the circuit and thereby protect the electrical system of the pressure cooker against damage.

PREPARING FOR COOKING Place the pressure cooker on an even, rigid surface. Do not place the pressure cooker on metal underlays. Open the lid as described in chapter CORRECT HANDLING OF THE LID. Make sure that the inside of the built-in outer pot A19 including the hotplate A23 is clean and free of any food remains. Place the removable pot A14 into the built-in outer pot and gently turn it to both sides to ensure that it is seated on the hotplate. Place the ingredients and water if necessary into the removable pot so that the entire contents do not go over the MAX mark shown on the

inside of the pot. To ensure its proper operation and prevent its damage, the pot must be filled up to at least the bottom mark on the scale. In the event that the edges or the outer parts of the built-in outer pot A19 or the inner pot A14 are soiled, clean them thoroughly.

Close the lid as described in chapter CLOSING THE LID.

TURNING ON THE PRESSURE COOKER Insert the plug of the power cord A25 all the way into the connection socket A22 on the side of the pressure cooker. Connect the power cord

plug to a power socket. The pressure cooker will beep and switch to stand-by mode.

STAND-BY MODE The stand-by mode means that the pressure cooker is ready for use. If the lid is locked, the display will show four dashes. If the lid is unlocked,

the display will show the text "OPEN". Set the pressure cooker to stand-by mode after connecting it to the power supply or by pressing button B15 (Start/Cancel) at any time while

the pressure cooker is running.

COOKING

Attention: Before and during cooking, always check that the steam release valve A7 is not covered, e.g. by a wiping cloth.

QUICK OVERVIEW OF THE PRESSURE COOKER'S CONTROLS Use the control knob B6 to select a cooking program. Adjust the cooking parameters according to your own discretion using the respective buttons and the control knob or leave the default preset

parameters. Start the cooking process by pressing button B15 (Start/Cancel). You can cancel the cooking process or the manually set cooking values by holding down button B15 (Start/Cancel) for longer than 2 seconds. When the pressure cooker completes the cooking process it will automatically switch to the keep warm mode. The only exception are the

programs (fry) and (yoghurt), after the completion of which the pressure cooker will switch to the stand-by mode.

POSITION OF THE STEAM RELEASE VALVE DURING THE COOKING PROCESS Prior to starting the cooking process, turn the steam release valve A7 to the cooking position C1. The pressure cooker will automatically control

the release of steam. If you wish to release all the steam from the pressure cooker, e.g. for the purpose of opening the lid, turn the valve to the steam release position

C2. The pressure cooker will start to continuously release steam.

Warning: When releasing steam, keep away from the escaping steam to avoid being scalded. Never place your hands, arms or face in the vicinity of the pressure control valve when it is releasing steam.

AUTOMATIC COOKING USING PRESET PROGRAMS The electric pressure cooker has 10 smart cooking programs. Each of them has its predefined cooking time, temperature and pressure level to
