Electric pressure cooker is an upgraded product of traditional pressure cooker and rice cooker. It combines the advantages of pressure cooker and rice cooker, adopts elastic pressure control, dynamic sealing, New technologies and new structures such as external screw caps and displacement-adjustable electric switches, fully sealed cooking and continuously adjustable pressure, completely solve the safety problems of pressure cookers and relieve the safety hazards that have plagued consumers for many years in ordinary pressure cookers; its thermal efficiency is greater than 80% , saving time and electricity (more than 30% electricity saving than ordinary rice cookers).
The electric pressure cooker is indeed a practical cooking appliance. It has the incomparable advantages of other cooking utensils, can meet various cooking needs, can quickly, safely and automatically realize a variety of cooking methods, and its energy-saving and nutritious characteristics are the direction pursued by modern people.
1. Steps and methods of using electric pressure cooker
1. Learn before using, When using an electric pressure cooker for the first time, you must read the instruction manual of the pressure cooker. Be sure to do it according to the instructions, or ask someone who knows how to do it, and you must use it without learning.
2. Check before use. First, carefully check whether the exhaust hole is unblocked, and whether the hole under the safety valve seat is blocked by residual rice or other food residues. If it is blocked by food during use, the pot should be removed from the fire source, and after forced cooling, the air holes can be cleaned before continuing to use, otherwise the food will be sprayed out and scalded during use. Also check for deterioration of the rubber sealing gasket. The rubber sealing ring will age after a period of use. The aging rubber ring is easy to cause the pressure cooker to leak. For this reason, it needs to be updated in time.
3. Open the lid, hold the handle of the lid tightly with your hand, rotate the lid clockwise to the limit edge, and then up.
4. Take out the inner pot, put food and water into the inner pot, the food and water shall not exceed 4/5 of the height of the inner pot; the swellable food in water shall not exceed 3/5 of the height of the inner pot; Food and water should not be less than 1/5 of the height of the inner pot. The maximum cooking capacity of 4L, 5L and 6L is 8 cups, 10 cups and 12 cups respectively. 1 cup of rice with 1 cup of water. Users can adjust the amount of water according to different rice quality and personal taste. The measuring cup has a capacity of 180ml.
5. Put the inner pot into the outer pot. Before putting it in, wipe the inner pot and the heating plate clean. Do not put sundries in the outer pot and the surface of the heating plate; Gently rotate the inner pot to ensure good contact between the inner pot and the heating plate.
6. Close the lid and check whether the sealing ring has been placed on the inner steel ring of the lid; rotate the sealing ring left and right by hand to make it freely and evenly placed on the steel ring; cover the lid, then Rotate the lid counterclockwise to the buckled position, and hear a “click” sound. The handle of the lid must be completely overlapped with the handle of the pot before putting it on the stove to cook food, otherwise it will cause the lid to explode. ACCIDENT.
7. Place the pressure-limiting and venting valve, turn the pressure-limiting and venting valve to the “sealing” position, and check whether the float valve falls down (the float valve falls down before heating).
8. Turn on the power and the boost light will be on.
9. Set the pressure holding time according to the food. During the heating process, never open the lid to prevent the food from bursting and scalding. Before confirming the cooling, do not remove the weight or pressure regulating device, so as not to spray food and hurt people. The lid should be opened after natural cooling or forced cooling.
10. Do not use a sharp shovel to scrape, and the pressure cooker must be cleaned in time after use, especially to check whether the safety plug is hidden with food deposits and residues, to keep the appearance of the pot clean, and do not use sharp utensils such as knives , scissors, shovel and other appropriate amount of shovel inside and outside the pot, otherwise the pot will easily deform into a convex and concave shape, or be shoveled out with horizontal and vertical scratches, which will damage the protective layer.
11. Do not pressurize without authorization. Some people add weight to the pressurized valve without authorization when using it, in order to increase the pressure in the pot and forcibly shorten the production time. However, it is known that the pressure in the pot has strict technical parameters, and ignoring this scientific design will cause serious consequences of the pot bursting and hurting people.
Second, precautions for using electric pressure cooker
Don’t open the lid halfway.
Do not open the lid halfway during the heating process, lest the food explode and burn. Before confirming the cooling, do not remove the heavy hammer or pressure regulating device, so as not to spray food and hurt people. The lid should be opened after natural cooling or forced cooling.
Two bogeys are only cheap.
It is necessary to select products with brand names, manufacturers, manuals, and qualified quality. Don’t just buy fakes cheap.
The three taboos can be used without learning.
Someone buys an electric pressure cooker and just pick it up and use it is the most dangerous. The first time you use it, you must read the manual, and be sure to follow the instructions.
Four taboos do not check before use.
When using, first carefully check whether the exhaust hole is unblocked, and whether the hole under the safety valve seat is blocked by residual rice or other food residues. If it is blocked by food during use, the pot should be forced to cool down, and the air holes can be cleaned before continuing to use it, otherwise the food will be sprayed out and scalded during use. Also check for deterioration of the rubber sealing gasket. Because the rubber sealing ring will age after a period of use. The aging rubber ring is easy to cause the pressure cooker to leak. For this reason, it needs to be updated in time.
Five taboo lids do not overlap.
The lid must be in place to cook food, otherwise it will cause the lid to fly up.
Six taboos to pressurize without authorization.
Some people arbitrarily add weight to the pressurized valve during use, in order to increase the pressure in the pot and forcibly shorten the production time. However, there are strict technical parameters for the pressure inside the pot. Ignoring this scientific design is tantamount to joking with one’s own life, which will lead to serious consequences of the pot bursting and hurting people. Don’t take this risk. In addition, during use, if the fusible metal sheet (plug) on the pot falls off, it is not allowed to be replaced by other metal objects, and the same new piece should be replaced.
Seven taboos are too full.
When using a pressure cooker to put food ingredients, the volume should not exceed 4/5 of the volume in the pot, and if it is beans and other easily swellable foods, it should not exceed 2/3 of the volume in the pot.
