   • Close the lid by rotating the handle until it locks securely.
   • Place the pressure regulator (whistle) on the vent pipe.
   • Heat the cooker on a medium-high flame. Steam will escape from the vent pipe before the pressure regulator begins to whistle.

Naudojimo instrukcijos

1. Paruoškite ingredientus: Place your food and the required amount of liquid into the pressure cooker. Ensure the liquid level is at least 1 cup (250ml) for proper pressure generation. Do not exceed the maximum fill lines (two-thirds full for most foods, half full for expanding foods).
2. Uždarykite dangtį: Place the lid on the cooker, aligning the arrow on the lid with the arrow on the body handle. Rotate the lid handle clockwise until it is firmly closed and locked. The inside-fitting lid design ensures it cannot be opened under pressure.
3. Slėgio reguliatoriaus vieta: Position the pressure regulator (whistle) securely on the vent pipe.
4. Taikyti šilumą: Place the cooker on a stove over medium-high heat.
5. Slėgio kaupimasis: Steam will begin to escape from the vent pipe. After a few minutes, the pressure regulator will start to whistle, indicating that full pressure has been reached.
6. Virimo laikas: Once the regulator begins to whistle, reduce the heat to maintain a steady, gentle whistle. Cook for the time specified in your recipe.
7. Išleidimo slėgis: After cooking, remove the cooker from the heat. There are two methods for pressure release:
   • Natūralus išleidimas: Allow the cooker to cool down naturally until all pressure has dissipated. This is recommended for foods that benefit from continued cooking or for frothy foods. The lid will only open when pressure has completely dropped.
   • Greitas atleidimas (po šaltu vandeniu): For faster pressure release, carefully place the cooker under cold running water, avoiding the pressure regulator and steam vent, until the pressure drops. This method is suitable for delicate foods that can overcook quickly.
8. Atidarykite dangtelį: Once all pressure has been released (the lid will open easily), carefully open the lid away from your face to avoid residual steam.
