Важни безбедносни информации
ПРЕДУПРЕДУВАЊЕ: Непочитувањето на овие безбедносни упатства може да резултира со сериозни повреди или материјална штета.
- Read all instructions before using the pressure cooker.
- Не допирајте жешки површини. Користете рачки или копчиња.
- Потребен е внимателен надзор кога шпоретот под притисок се користи во близина на деца.
- Не го ставајте шпоретот под притисок во загреана рерна.
- Бидете внимателни кога преместувате шпорет под притисок што содржи топли течности.
- Do not use the pressure cooker for purposes other than intended.
- Овој апарат готви под притисок. Неправилната употреба може да резултира со изгореници. Пред да го користите, проверете дали апаратот е правилно затворен. Видете „Упатства за работа“.
- Never force open a pressure cooker. Make sure internal pressure is completely released before opening. See "Operating Instructions".
- Do not fill the unit over 2/3 full. When cooking foods that expand during cooking, such as rice or dried vegetables, do not fill the unit over 1/2 full. Overfilling may cause a risk of clogging the vent pipe and developing excess pressure.
- Бидете свесни дека одредени видови храна, како што се сос од јаболка, брусница, бисерен јачмен, овесна каша или други житарки, цепен грашок, тестенини, макарони, рабарбара или шпагети, можат да се запенат, да се запенат, да прскаат и да го затнат уредот за ослободување на притисок. Овие видови храна не треба да се готват во експрес лонец.
- Секогаш проверувајте ги уредите за ослободување притисок за затнување пред употреба.
- After cooking, turn off the heat. Allow the pressure to drop naturally or use a controlled release method.
- This pressure cooker is compatible with gas, electric, and glass-ceramic stovetops. Not suitable for induction cooktops.

Упатства за работа
1. Полнење на експрес лонецот
- Add food and liquid to the pressure cooker.
- Do not fill the unit over 2/3 full.
- When cooking foods that expand (e.g., rice, dried beans), do not fill over 1/2 full.
Image: The pressure cooker shown with various ingredients like soup, sauces, meat, and beans, indicating its versatility for meal preparation. The image also displays the cooker's dimensions: 8.5 inches (22 cm) height and 7.1 inches (18 cm) diameter, suitable for up to 5 servings.
2. Sealing the Lid (Inner Lid System)
The Universal Pressure Cooker features a traditional inner lid closure system. Follow these steps carefully to ensure a secure seal:
- Align the arrow on the lid with the body handle.
- Tilt the lid and slide it into the pot.
- Turn the lid handle to align it with the body handle.
- Place the lid on the pivot.
- Squeeze both handles together firmly until the lid is securely sealed. Adjust as needed for a perfect seal.
3. Готвење под притисок
- Place the sealed pressure cooker on a compatible stovetop (gas, electric, glass-ceramic).
- Turn the heat to high.
- Once pressure builds, the main steam regulator valve will begin to whistle, indicating that the ideal pressure level (11.60 PSI / 80 kPa) has been reached.
- Reduce heat to maintain a steady whistle or gentle steam release, as per your recipe.
- Гответе за времето наведено во вашиот рецепт.
4. Релеasing Притисок
Постојат два основни методи за релеasing притисок:
- Природно ослободување: Turn off the heat and allow the pressure cooker to cool down naturally. The pressure indicator will drop, and the lid will unlock when all pressure is released. This method is suitable for foods that benefit from additional cooking time.
- Controlled Release (Practi-Press System): For quicker pressure release, carefully use the Practi-Press system or gently tilt the main steam regulator valve to allow steam to escape. Exercise extreme caution to avoid scalding from hot steam.
WARNING: Never attempt to open the lid until all internal pressure has been completely released.
5. Opening the Pressure Cooker
Once pressure is fully released, follow these steps to open the lid:
Step 1: Release Hook
Press both handles to release the hook from the body handle.
Image: Illustration showing how to press the handles to release the hook, initiating the lid opening process.
Step 2: Separate Handles
Take the handle of the lid with one hand and the handle of the body with the other, pulling them slightly apart.
Image: Illustration demonstrating how to separate the lid and body handles after the hook is released.
Step 3: Turn the Lid
Turn the lid 90 degrees until the arrow marked on the lid points towards the body handle.
Step 4: Tilt the Lid
When the lid handle is horizontal, slightly tilt the lid down.
Step 5: Remove the Lid
Carefully remove the lid from the pot.
