PRESSURE CHEF OPERATION

• The lid (3) has a safety lock pin. The cooker will not start until the lid is closed and locked in place.

Place the lid (1) onto the outer body (7) and lock

into place by turning the “lock” triangle on the

front of the lid towards the triangular alignment

notch on the outer body.

The safety lock pin will depress when the lid is

properly closed.

The LED display on the control panel (8) shows

the amount of pressure that is being used in psi

(Pounds per Square Inch) and also shows when

the pressure is being released.

The pressure regulator (2) is used to release

pressure instantly.

WARNING:

Take care when releasing pressure with the

pressure regulator, as hot steam will escape and

can cause severe burns.

BEFORE FIRST USE

Remove any packing materials and labels from your electric pressure cooker. Be sure to remove cook

pot and check for parts.

Be sure that all of the products parts are included before you dispose of the packing materials.

However, you may want to store the box and packing material to use at a later time.

Before you use your PRESSURE CHEF for the ﬁrst time, wipe the cooker clean with a damp cloth. Clean

the lid and the removable pot. The cooking pot can be cleaned with warm soapy water. Do not put the

removable pot in the dishwasher. Rinse with clean water, towel/air dry, and place it into the PRESSURE

CHEF.

The seal gasket may already be installed on the lid, if not, make sure that it is installed properly on the

lid as shown below:

NOTE: You can remove and clean the seal gasket after cooking. You can clean the seal gasket with

warm soapy water. Make sure that it is completely dry before inserting it back into the lid.

Seal gasket

USING YOUR PRESSURE CHEF

There are 12 settings that you can use on the PRESSURE CHEF. All settings have preset times and preset

pressure. You can choose one of the preset times, or, if you want something in between the preset times

or for much longer, you are able to change times by pressing the “Pressure Time +” or “Pressure Time –“

button repeatedly to achieve the desired time. You can also adjust the pressure level and temperature

by pressing the “Adjust” button.

The PRESSURE CHEF comes with the following cooking options and times:

• Rice: 5, 8, 10 minutes (Adjust Pressure)

• Multigrain: 20, 40 minutes, 1 hour (Adjust Pressure)

• Porridge: 15, 20, 30 minutes (Adjust Pressure)

• Meat/Stew: 20, 35, 45 minutes (Adjust Pressure)

• Steam: 1, 3, 5 minutes (Adjust Pressure)

• Bean/Mince: 25, 30, 45 minutes (Adjust Pressure)

• Yoghurt: 8, 24 hours (Adjust Temperature)

• Soup: 20, 30, 40 minutes (Adjust Pressure)

• Poultry: 5, 15, 30 minutes (Adjust Pressure)

• Sauté: 30 minutes (no pressure, Adjust Temperature)

• Egg Maker: 1, 3, 5 minutes (Adjust Pressure)

• Slow Cook: up to 20 hours (Adjust Temperature)

• Pressure Time + / - : Up to 2 hours (You can also use this option to choose a time between the

preset times above and to adjust pressure)

• Keep Warm/Cancel: To keep food warm or cancel your settings and turn off the pressure cooker

• Adjust: To adjust either the pressure or temperature depending on the cooking setting

• Delay Timer: up to 24 hours

You are able to choose one of the preset times by pressing the button of the cooking option of your

choice repeatedly. For example, if you want to use one of the “Rice” preset cooking times, press the

“Rice” button and the preset cooking time of 8 minutes will show up on the cooking time display. If you

want to adjust to 10 minutes, you can press the “Rice” button again until you get to 10 minutes (it will

cycle through the preset times). Or if you want to adjust to 9 minutes, you can press on “Rice” and one

of the preset cooking times will show up on the cooking time display. Then press on the “Pressure Time

+” or “Pressure Time –“ button repeatedly until you get to 9 minutes. After you have set a time, you are

able to adjust the pressure level between “Low” and “High” by pressing the “Adjust” button and the

setting of either “Low” or “High” will light up. Low pressure is a range from 5-6 psi and high pressure is

a range from 12-13 psi.

NOTE:

The “Sauté” cooking option does not use pressure and does not require the lid. However, when using

this option you must never leave the PRESSURE CHEF unattended to prevent the food from burning.

USING YOUR PRESSURE CHEF

When all the parts are assembled properly, you are ready to start cooking with your PRESSURE CHEF.

1. To remove the lid (3), grasp the lid handle (1), turn clockwise and lift

2. Take the removable pot (6) from the pressure cooker and add food and liquids.

NOTE: Do not ﬁll more than 60% of the capacity of the cooking pot. For food that expands, such as

dried vegetables and beans, you must not exceed 50% of the capacity of the pot. When cooking

with pressure, you must always use at least ½ cup of water

3. Put the removable pot back into the PRESSURE CHEF and place the lid on, lining it up with the drip

cup (5). To lock the lid in place turn it anticlockwise, which will line the lid up with the handle.

NOTE: When opening and closing the lid, there is a safety lock pin that disengages (protrudes out)

when you open the lid. When the lid is closed and locked, the safety lock pin will engage

(depresses in)

4. The pressure regulator (2) has two dots labelled “Steam” and “Pressure”. You can use these two

dots as guidelines for positioning the pressure regulator

5. Plug the PRESSURE CHEF into the wall outlet. The two LED displays will show --.-- You can use one

of the preset cooking options or set the cooking time yourself. If you decide to set a time yourself,

you can set the time by pressing on the “Pressure Time +” button repeatedly (or hold down for faster

time change) until you ﬁnd the time you want. After you have set a time, quickly press the “Adjust”

button to set it to either a high or low pressure. High Pressure cooks the food at a range of 12-13 psi

and low pressure cooks the food at a range of 6-7 psi

6. Once you have adjusted the pressure, the PRESSURE CHEF will automatically start after 5 seconds

7. The PRESSURE CHEF will beep when there is enough heat and when pressure starts to build. Please

note that the timer does not start until there is enough heat and the pressure level has been reached.

The pressure light will blink and a pressure reading will be shown on the bottom display. During the

pressure cooking process, the PRESSURE CHEF should be fairly silent, however, if it makes some

noise and releases a lot of steam, carefully adjust the pressure regulator in either direction until the

steam and noise reduces. Throughout the cooking cycle, the pressure will ﬂuctuate causing the

“Heating” light to go on and off. This is normal and is a safety feature

8. When the cooker is done, it will beep again. DO NOT REMOVE THE LID. There will still be pressure

inside the PRESSURE CHEF. You can either wait for the PRESSURE CHEF to slowly release the

pressure on its own (it will show on the LED display and beep when all the pressure has been

released) or you can release the pressure immediately by turning the pressure regulator on the lid.

NOTE: When turning the pressure regulator to release pressure, keep your hands and face as far

from the pressure regulator as possible to prevent injury or scalding from the steam that will be

released

DELAY TIMER

This setting allows you to begin cooking food up to 24 hours later in half hour increments. You can use

this setting with any of the cooking options provided.

NOTE: Perishable foods, such as meats, poultry, ﬁsh, cheese, and dairy products cannot be left at room

temperature for more than two hours, no longer than one hour when the temperature of the room is

above 32° Celcius. Be sure to set the delay timer to no more than 2 hours.

1. Fill the removable pot (6) with the desired food and liquid and place it in the PRESSURE CHEF

2. Choose a cooking option and set the time

3. Once you have set the cooking time, immediately press the “Delay Timer” button until you reach the

desired time. This time will show on the top display. It will come in half-hour increments

NOTE: Be sure to immediately press the “Delay Timer” button right after you have set a cooking time

because the cooker will automatically start after 5 seconds.

SLOW COOKING

1. Fill the removable pot (6) with food and liquid then put it back into the PRESSURE CHEF and replace

the lid (3). Set the pressure regulator (2) to “Steam”

2. Press the “Slow Cook” button and 30 minutes will appear on the timer display. To add more time,

quickly press the “Pressure Time +” button, it will add more time in half hour increments. You can

slow cook up to 20 hours

3. Once you have set a time, quickly press the “Adjust” button to set the temperature to either of the 3

levels : “Low”, “Mid”, and “High”. The cooker will automatically start after 5 seconds. The

“Heating” light will be on

4. It will take at least 5 minutes for the cooker to reach the set temperature. Please note that the timer

will not start counting down until the cooker has reached the set temperature

SAUTÉ

1. Fill the removable pot with the desired food and place it in the PRESSURE CHEF

2. Press “Sauté” and leave the lid off. The cooking time for Sauté is 30 minutes. You can press the

“Warm/Cancel” button to stop the cooking process.

NOTE: Do not leave the pressure cooker unattended while using the Sauté function.
