Instruccions de funcionament

The 15-PSI Pressure Control Weight automatically regulates the internal pressure of your cooker once it reaches 15 pounds per square inch (PSI).

• Calefacció: Place the pressure cooker with the control weight on a heat source. Initially, steam will escape steadily from under the weight. This is normal and indicates that air is being vented from the cooker.
• Indicació de pressió: As pressure builds, the weight will begin to "jiggle" or "rock" steadily. This indicates that the desired 15 PSI pressure has been reached.
• Ajustar la calor: Once the weight begins to jiggle steadily, reduce the heat to the lowest setting that maintains a consistent, gentle jiggling motion. Excessive jiggling indicates too much heat and can lead to liquid loss.
• Temporització: Begin timing your cooking or canning process only after the weight starts to jiggle steadily.
• Despressurització: After cooking, remove the pressure cooker from the heat. Allow the pressure to drop naturally until the weight stops jiggling and no steam escapes. Do not attempt to remove the weight or open the lid until all pressure has been released.

Nota de seguretat: Always follow the specific instructions provided with your Mirro pressure cooker or canner. Never leave a pressure cooker unattended while in operation.

Manteniment

Proper maintenance of your pressure control weight ensures its longevity and accurate performance.

• Neteja: The Mirro 15-PSI Pressure Control Weight is dishwasher safe. For manual cleaning, wash with warm, soapy water and rinse thoroughly. Ensure no food particles are lodged in the vent holes or around the base.
• Inspecció: Regularly inspect the weight for any signs of damage, cracks, or deformation. A damaged weight may not regulate pressure correctly.
• Emmagatzematge: Store the weight in a clean, dry place when not in use, preferably with your pressure cooker.
