circuit from other appliances.

steam, make sure the area several feet above the pressure release
valve is clear from all lighting fixtures, furniture or cabinetry.

position during cooking. After cooking is complete, turn to the
PRESSURE RELEASE position before attempting to open the lid.

pressure release valve to PRESSURE RELEASE position and allow
the steam to escape.
• Holding the base handles firmly in one hand, firmly grasp the lid
handle with the other hand and rotate clockwise (follow the arrow
