Clean After Every Use:
Wash the cooker body and lid with mild dish soap and warm water to remove food residue and maintain hygiene.

Use a Soft Sponge for Cleaning:
Avoid steel wool or abrasive scrubbers, as they may damage the surface and reduce durability.

Dry Completely Before Storage:
Ensure all parts are fully dry before storing to prevent moisture buildup, stains or corrosion.

Check the Gasket and Valve Regularly:
Inspect the sealing ring and pressure valve to ensure proper functioning and safe pressure release.

Store in a Clean, Dry Place:
Keep the pressure cooker in a dry area to maintain its condition and ensure long-lasting performance.

Step 1: Heating the Cooker
When the pressure cooker is placed on a gas or induction stove and heated, the water and moisture inside begin to warm up.

Step 2: Steam Formation
As the temperature rises, the liquid turns into steam, which gets trapped inside the sealed cooker.

Step 3: Pressure Build-Up
Because the steam cannot escape, pressure builds up inside the cooker, increasing the internal temperature.

Step 4: Faster and Even Cooking
The high pressure and heat circulate evenly around the food, allowing it to cook faster and more uniformly.

Step 5: Efficient and Energy-Saving Cooking
This sealed, high-pressure environment reduces cooking time while preserving nutrients and flavour.
