Closing the pressure cooker
Hold the lid of the pressure cooker by the rotating closure, attach it vertically to the vessel, rotate the
closure counter-clockwise and close the pressure cooker (Fig. J).
Make sure that the pressure regulator IDEALCOOK can be smoothly adjusted to any operating position as
well as the position for releasing steam xxx(Fig. C).
DO NOT APPLY INAPPROPRIATE FORCE WHEN CLOSING THE PRESSURE COOKER.
COOKING IN THE PRESSURE COOKER
Adjusting the ideal pressure
ADJUST THE IDEAL PRESSURE BEFORE YOU BEGIN TO COOK BY SLIGHTLY TURNING THE PRESSURE REGULATOR,
IDEALCOOK, INTO THE POSITION CORRESPONDING TO THE CHOSEN FOOD (Fig. K).
If you cook fish, fruits, vegetables including potatoes, or cereals in pressure cooker ULTIMA+, adjust the
pressure regulator to the xxxxposition.
If you cook poultry, rabbit, young venison, etc. in pressure cooker ULTIMA+, adjust the pressure regulator
to the xxxxposition.
If you cook pork, venison, soups or lentils in pressure cooker ULTIMA+, adjust the pressure regulator to
the xxxxposition.
If you cook beef, mutton or lamb in pressure cooker ULTIMA+, adjust the pressure regulator to the xxxxx
position.
YOU CAN ALSO USE INTERMEDIATE SETTINGS FOR SOME FOOD TO ACHIEVE THE IDEAL ADJUSTMENT OF
PRESSURE, E.G. THE POSITION BETWEEN xxxx AND xxxxx FOR VEAL – SEE THE TABLE OF INDICATIVE TIMES OF
COOKING IN PRESSURE COOKER ULTIMA+.
Cooking
Place the correctly filled and closed pressure cooker with the selected ideal pressure onto heat set to the
highest output. Put the pressure cooker on heat so that the IDEALCOOK pressure regulator is on the remote
end of the pressure cooker (Fig. L).
The red lock against accidental opening will slip upwards after a short while. This means that pressure has
been generated in the vessel and the pressure cooker can no longer be opened – steam will begin to escape
from the aperture in the operating valve after a while (Fig. M).
When steam begins to escape from the aperture in the operating valve, reduce the heat
output so that only a small amount of steam escapes from the aperture.
Pressure control during the cooking process
Once operating pressure is generated in the vessel of the pressure cooker, the pressure indicator slips
upwards and indicates accurately the current pressure in the vessel (Fig. N).
Control the output of the cooker during the entire cooking process so that a small amount of steam
continuously escapes from the aperture of the operating valve.
WARNING! If the pressure indicator shows a red ring in addition to the two white rings
(Fig. O), the pressure in the vessel is higher than the maximum permitted operating pressure
(1.05 bar). In this case, immediately reduce the heat output to minimum and make sure that
the pressure indicator immediately slips to a lower position. If, even after reducing heat output
to minimum, the pressure indicator fails to slip downwards and continues to show the red ring,
immediately turn off the heat source and remove the pressure cooker from the heat. Leave it
to cool down until the pressure in the vessel drops entirely and only then open the pressure
