How to use the pressure cooker quickly?

Exhaust method of pressure cooker after use: after cooking, naturally cool at room temperature. If you want to eat right away, you can use the method of forced cooling (that is, shower or soaking in water) to reduce the pressure. After cooling, you can gently lift the pressure limiting valve to release the remaining gas.

Key points for safe use of pressure cooker:

1. Don't put rags or other things on the pressure-limiting valve, as this may cause the pressure-limiting valve to be blocked, leading to failures and accidents.

2. Before using the pressure cooker, check whether the lid is sealed, whether the exhaust system is unobstructed and whether the pressure limiting valve is in place.

3. The food in the pot should not exceed 4/5 of the capacity (including the height of the liquid level), and it is best not to exceed 2/3 when boiling beans, so as to avoid the gas generated during cooking expanding and blocking the exhaust hole, and the food in the pot should not be too little.

Extended data:

Electric pressure cooker should pay attention to:

1. Pressure control safety device: If the set pressure is exceeded during use, the power supply can be automatically cut off.

2. Pressure relief safety device: When the pressure limiting safety device fails and the air pressure in the pot exceeds the safety value, the pressure relief mechanism works, so that the inner periphery of the pot can be automatically exhausted and relieved, and the pot explosion accident can not occur.

3. Pressure limiting safety device: When the air pressure in the pot increases to the upper limit, the pressure limiting safety valve automatically exhausts and limits the pressure.

4. Power-off memory protection device: When power is cut off, the power cord is unplugged and a new phone is dialed, or the power supply is turned on, the setting function before power-off can be automatically continued.

5. Temperature limiting safety device: When the temperature in the pot rises to the limit, the power supply will be automatically cut off.

6. Anti-blocking safety device: prevent food from blocking the exhaust valve and ensure that the exhaust valve is unobstructed.

7. Safety device for opening and closing the lid: When the lid and the pot body are not fastened firmly, the air pressure in the pot will not rise. When the air pressure in the pot is higher than the safe value, the pot cover cannot be opened.

8. Over-temperature safety device: automatically cut off the power supply when the pot is empty or the temperature in the pot exceeds the set safety value.

Methods to prevent explosion of pressure cooker;

1. Before use, carefully check whether the air holes on the lid seat are clear and the safety plug is intact.

The food in the pot should not exceed 4/5 of the capacity. When closing the lid, it must be screwed into the slot, and the upper and lower handles should be aligned. When cooking, the upper pressure valve is closed when steam starts to be discharged from the air hole.

3, when heated to the pressure limiting valve issued a loud hiss, to immediately cool down.

4. When cooking, if the safety plug is found to be exhausted, replace it with a new fusible piece in time, and it must not be blocked by iron wire, cloth, etc.
