3. Информации за безбедност
Operating a pressure cooker involves high pressure and temperature. Adhere strictly to these safety guidelines to prevent accidents and ensure safe operation.
Општи безбедносни мерки на претпазливост:
- Always read the instruction manual before use.
- Do not fill the pressure cooker beyond the maximum fill lines (typically 2/3 full for liquids, 1/2 full for foods that expand like beans or grains).
- Ensure the lid is properly sealed and locked before applying heat.
- Никогаш не го отворајте капакот на сила додека шпоретот е под притисок.
- Држете ги рацете и лицето подалеку од отворот за пареа кога е вклучен.asing притисок.
- Не користете го лонецот под притисок за пржење во длабоко масло.
- Редовно проверувајте ги заптивките и безбедносните вентили за абење или оштетување. Заменете ги доколку е потребно.
- Да се чува подалеку од дофат на деца.
Интегрирани безбедносни карактеристики:
Your Buffalo Pressure Cooker is equipped with multiple safety mechanisms:
- Safety Vent: Releases excess pressure if primary mechanisms fail.
- Безбедносен вентил: A primary pressure release mechanism.
- Extra Safety Valve: Provides an additional layer of pressure release.
- Vent Filter: Prevents food particles from clogging the vent.
- Заштитна опрема: Ensures proper lid alignment and sealing.

4. Поставување
Почетно чистење:
- Before first use, wash all parts of the pressure cooker (pot, lid, gasket, and valves) with warm, soapy water.
- Исплакнете темелно и исушете целосно.
- Ensure all vent holes and safety mechanisms are clear of any debris.
Собрание:
- Place the removable rubber gasket securely inside the lid rim. Ensure it is seated correctly and evenly.
- Verify that the pressure regulator, safety valve, and extra safety valve are properly installed and free from obstructions.
Поставување:
Place the pressure cooker on a stable, level cooking surface. Ensure it is centered over the heat source appropriate for its base diameter.
5. Упатства за работа
Filling the Cooker:
- Add food and liquid to the pressure cooker. Always ensure there is sufficient liquid to generate steam.
- Do not fill the cooker more than 2/3 full for most foods.
- For foods that expand during cooking (e.g., rice, beans, grains), do not fill more than 1/2 full.
- For canning, ensure jars are placed on a rack and do not exceed the recommended fill level for the specific canning process. The 15-quart model can hold approximately 5 quart jars or 8 pint jars.

Обезбедување на капакот:
- Align the lid with the pot according to the markings.
- Close the lid firmly and engage the safety lock mechanism until it clicks into place. Ensure the lid handles are aligned and locked.
Building Pressure:
- Place the pressure cooker on your chosen heat source (gas, electric, induction, ceramic) and set to high heat.
- Steam will begin to escape from the vent. This is normal.
- Once a steady stream of steam is released, place the pressure regulator (weight) onto the vent pipe.
- The pressure indicator will rise, and the regulator will begin to jiggle or rock, indicating that full pressure has been reached.
- Reduce heat to maintain a steady, gentle rocking motion of the pressure regulator. Avoid excessive steam release.
Готвење:
Begin timing your recipe once full pressure is reached and the heat is adjusted. Cooking times are significantly reduced in a pressure cooker.
Релеasing Притисок:
Постојат два основни методи за релеasing притисок:
- Природно ослободување: Remove the pressure cooker from the heat source and allow it to cool down naturally. The pressure indicator will drop on its own. This method is suitable for foods that benefit from additional cooking time or for foamy foods.
- Брзо ослободување: For foods that require precise cooking times, carefully move the pressure regulator to release steam rapidly. Alternatively, for some models, you can place the cooker under cold running water (avoiding the lid mechanisms) to cool it quickly. Exercise extreme caution with quick release as hot steam will be expelled.
Opening the Cooker:
Only open the pressure cooker once the pressure indicator has fully dropped and no steam is escaping. Unlock the lid and carefully remove it, tilting it away from your face to avoid residual steam.
6. Одржување и чистење
Секојдневно чистење:
- After each use, wash the pot and lid with warm, soapy water. The pressure cooker is dishwasher safe.
- Remove the rubber gasket from the lid and wash it separately. Ensure it is clean and free of food particles.
- Clean the vent pipe and safety valves using a small brush or cleaning needle to ensure they are not clogged.
- Темелно исплакнете ги сите делови и исушете ги целосно пред складирање.
Складирање:
Store the pressure cooker with the lid inverted on the pot to allow air circulation and prevent the gasket from compressing permanently, which can affect its sealing ability.
