PLEASE READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
Seeew GImportant Safeguards
When using pressure cookers, basic safety precautions should
always be followed:
* Read this entire instruction manual. Improper operation of a pressure cooker
may result in injury.
* Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles.
* Close supervision is necessary when the pressure cooker is used near children.
Never leave pressure cooker unattended while cooking.
* Do not place the pressure cooker in a heated oven. Do not let the flame or
element used for cooking extend further than the size of the pan bottom.
* Extreme caution must be used when moving a pressure cooker containing hot
liquids or food.
* Do not use pressure cooker for other than intended use.
* This appliance cooks under pressure. Improper use may result in sealding injury.
Make certain unit is properly closed before operating. See “How to close” page 5.
* Do not fill the unit over two thirds full. When cooking foods that expand during
cooking such as rice, beans or dried vegetables,
do not fill the unit over one half fall. Overfilling may cause a risk of clogging
the pressure release devices and developing excess pressure.
See ‘Fill levels” page 4
Clean all pressure release devices after cooking: be sure they are free of food
and working properly.
* Be aware that certain foods, such as applesauce, cranberries, pearl barley,
oatmeal or other cereals, split peas, noodles, macaroni, spaguetti, or rhubarb
can foam, froth and sputter and clog the pressure release devices.
These foods should not be cooked in a pressure cooker.
+ Always check the pressure release devices for clogging before use.
Before each use check that all pressure release devices are free of food
and working properly, and that handles are light.
* Do not open the pressure cooker until the unit has cooled and all internal
pressure has been released. If the handles are difficult to push apart,
this indicates that the cooker is still pressurized NEVER FORCE THE
PRESSURE COOKER OPEN. In the event that you are unable to release
the pressure, remove from heat and set the pressure cooker aside
(running cold water over the cooker will help to reduce the internal pressure)
until it is completely cooled before opening. Any pressure in the cooker
can be hazardous. See “How to release pressure and open” page 8-9.
* Do not use this pressure cooker for pressure frying with oil or shortening.
* When the normal operating pressure is reached, turn the heat down so
all the liquid which creates the steam, does not evaporate.
Never operate the pressure cooker without the minimum liquid requirement.
See ‘Fill levels” page 4.
* SAVE THIS INSTRUCTIONS.Rapid II Super-Fast Pressure cooker

Getting started
Remove the Rapid II cooker from the
box. To remove the cover lift the pres-
sure release lever forward to the fully
raised position. Grasp the cover hand-
les and gently twist the cover counter
clockwise until the arrow engraved on
the cover is aligned with the dot loca-
ted in the center of the base handle
(Figure A). Lift off the cover.
Before using for the first time clean the
Rapid II cooker (see “Cleaning and
Storage” page 10).
Follow steps 1 and 2.
Fill levels
Place ingredients and liquid as your recipe directs in the Rapid II cooker base.
A minimum of ¥2 cup of liquid is required for the Rapid I] cooker to come up to
pressure.
Fill the Rapid Il cooker to no more than 2/3 of its capacity. When cooking star-
chy foods which produce foam such as beans, lentils or rice, fill the Rapid II
cooker to no more than ¥ of its capacity.Rapid Il Super-Fast Pressure cooker
How to close
1. Lift the pressure release lever
to an upright position (Figure B).
fee
Figure B
2. Position the cover on the base
so the arrow engraved on the cover
is aligned with the dot located in
the center of either base handle,
making sure the cover is properly
fitted on the base.
Grasp the cover handles and twist
the cover clockwise as far as possi-
ble (Figure C).

3. The cover handles and base
handles should now be aligned
one directly over the other. When
handles are properly aligned
lower the pressure release lever
to the closed position (Figure D).
The Rapid II Cooker is now
sealed.

Bringing up to pressure
* Place the sealed Rapid II cooker over high heat until desired pressure is
reached (see “Adjustable pressure settings” page 6).
* Once desired pressure is reached reduce heat. Begin to time cooking.
NOTE: Failure to reduce the heat will cause the pressure indicator to pass the
2nd mark. Should this happen the Triple safety system will automatically re-
lease excess pressure (see page 12). In this case remove the Rapid II cooker
from the heat until the pressure indicator returns to the desired level. Adjust
the heat to a lower setting before returning the Rapid II cooker to the heat
source.
* At this time observe the Rapid II cooker for a few minutes as it may be ne-
cessary to adjust the heat to maintain the proper pressure level. If the pressu-
re indicator exceeds the desired pressure setting lower the heat. If the pressu-
re indicator falls below the desired pressure setting increase the heat slightly.
The Rapid II cooker automatically helps adjust the pressure. A small amount
of steam may escape from the pressure regulator valve, creating an occasio-
nal gentle hissing sound.
NOTE NEVER LEAVE THE RAPID Il COOKER UNATTENDED WHILE
COOKING. DO NOT HEAT THE RAPID Il COOKER WHEN EMPTY.Rapid Il Super-Fast Pressure cooker
How to release pressure and open
When the required cooking time has elapsed remove the Rapid II cooker from
the heat. Then proceed in either of the following manners as the recipe drects.
* A-—Natural release
Let the Rapid II cooker sit undisturbed. As it
cools down the pressure indicator will recede
back into the pressure regulator until it is no
longer visible. Lift the pressure release lever
forward to a raised position (Figure J). When
the steam has COMPLETELY STOPPED
ESCAPING from the pressure release valve
proceed to step 3.
Figure J
+ B- Quick release
Exercise extreme caution when using the
quick release method, follow these direc-
tions only.
Slowly begin lifting the pressure release
lever being certain the steam is escaping
away from you. Take caution as the Rapid
Il cooker may release a high volume of
steam depending on the amount of food
cooked and the temperature and pressure
inside the Rapid II cooker.
As the heavy steam begins to subside lift
release valve proceed to step 3.
the pressure release lever forward to the fully raised position (Figure K). When
the pressure indicator has receded back into the pressure regulator and is no
longer visible, and the steam has COMPLETELY STOPPED ESCAPING from
the pressure release valve proceed to Step 3.

* 3. To remove the cover, grasp the cover
handles (CAUTION: Handles may be hot),
and gently twist the cover counter clockwise
until the arrow engraved on the cover tilting it
away from you to allow any excess steam to
escape.
NOTE: NEVER FORCE THE RAPID Il COOKER OPEN!
The cover of the Rapid II cooker should easily twist off for removal. DO NOT
ATTEMPT TO OPEN THE RAPID Il COOKER UNTIL ALL PRESSURE HAS.
BEEN RELEASED AS DIRECTED IN THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL. In the
event that you are unable to release the pressure in the Rapid II cooker, set
the Rapid II cooker aside until it is completely cooled before opening.Rapid II Super-Fast Pressure cooker
Cleaning and storage
To keep the Rapid II Cooker looking “Like New”, we recommend that you
wash each of its component parts with warm water and dish soap after
every use.
* 1. The base:
Wash in the sink or in the dishwasher as you would other cookware. Dry
thoroughly.
NOTE: If mineral deposits appear, most can be removed by boiling water with a
small amount of vinegar or lemon juice in the Rapid ll Cooker Base.
* 2. The cover:
Remove the gasket from the cover. Wash the cover and the gasket in the
sink with warm water and dish soap.
With the pressure release lever in the fully raised position, let warm tap
water run through the pressure release valve from the inside of the cover.
NEVER PUT THE COVER OR THE GASKET IN THE DISHWASHER.
Thoroughly dry cover and gasket.
Reposition the gasket in the cover
(Figure M).
Routinely check for signs that repla-
cement of the gasket may be neces-
sary. Always use genuine Rapid II
cooker replacement parts. (Figure M)
Figure M
3.Storage:
Put the Rapid II cooker away with the cover placed upside down over the
Base so that the gasket is aired thus preventing odors from becoming con-
centrated.Rapid Il Super-Fast Pressure cooker
Trouble shooting
There are several possible causes if excess steam escapes from the
gasket, through the Pressure Regulator Valve, or through the Pressure Re-
lease valve:
1.The cover has not been completely sealed or has been incorrectly sealed
(see “How to close” page 5).
2.The pressure release lever has not been properly or completely lowered.
3.The valve fixing nut is insufficiently tightened (Figure N)
Figure N
4.The 2nd Mark on the pressure indicator has been exceeded. Remove the
Rapid II cooker from the heat (see “Bringing up to pressure” page 7).
5.The gasket is placed in the cover incorrectly (see “Cleaning and storage”
page 10), or may be worn or damaged.
To prevent difficulties always follow this Instruction Manual.Rapid II Super-Fast Pressure cooker
Triple safety system
The Rapid I! Super-Fast cooker has three autmatic safety devices:
1.Pressure regulator valve
This valve is designed to release excess
steam should the pressure build up and
the 2nd mark on the pressure indicator is
exceeded (see “Bringing up to pressure”
page 7) (Figure O).
Figure O
2.Pressure release Valve
If an excess of pressure is created, or the
pressure regulator valve becomes inopera-
ble or obstructed, this second safety valve
will automatically release the excess
steam (Figure P).
Figure P
3.Cover gasket window
Should both the pressure regulator valve
and the pressure release valve become
inoperable or obstructed, although impro-
bable, the cover gasket window will allow
the gasket to expand sufficiently to allow
all the pressure to escape (Figure Q)

.» MAS SEGURIDAD
MAGEFESA ha conseguido ser la Olla mis segura del mer-
cado, Ayidenos a seguir siéndolo despreciando cualquier
recambio NO ORIGINAL (sobre tod “Juntas de cierre") que
allerandicha seguridad.
+ TRIPLE SEGURIDAD EN SU
FUNCIONAMIENTO
Esta Olladispone de tres sistemas de segurid
1- Véleula reguladora de presién:
Mantiene en todo momento la presiGn de trabajo de la Olla. Si
se sobrepasa la segunda sefal del indicador (Cocina super
répida), entra en funcionamiento esta vélvula deando salir el
‘vapor sobrante (Fig A),
2. Valvula depresora:
‘Acta si se genera un aumento de presi (Fig, B). Si funcio-
na esta valvula es debido a que no sube correctamente la
“Valvula reguladora de presin”. Retire la Olla del fuego y
limpie la citada vélvula (Ver 5 - MANTENIMIENTO Y
LIMPIEZA parato A)
3- Ventana tapa:
En el supuesto de que se obstruyan los dos dispositivos de
seguridad anteriores, la ventana de la tpa pemnite las
la “Junta de cierre” expulsando todo el vapor. (Fig. C).
Si Go sucede lévela a un Servicio de Asistencia ‘Técnica, Es
necesaro revsar ls ds sistemas de seguridad anteriores,
Esta “Junta de cierre” esti fabricada con materiales espec
Jes que hacen posible que funcione ese sistema de seguridad
Si Va. utiliza cualquier otra no original, corre el riesgo de
anular este sistema de seguridad,
3) INSTRUCCIONES DE
FUNCIONAMIENTO.
— No deje la Olla desatendida, preste atencién a la subi-
da del “Indicador”.
— Para que la Olla coja presién, siempre tiene que tener
agua, No se puede usar silo con aceite,
— No realice modificaciones en los sistemas de seguti-
dad, ni utilice juntas falsificadas, no originales de
MAGEFESA.
— Si desmonta el “Asa depresora” cerciérese que la
palanca de descomprimir quede metida en el rebaje
de la cabeza del bulén (Fig. L).
— Antes de abrir la Olla, después de cocinar,agitelalige-
ramente para evitar salpicaduras,
+ PARA ABRIR LA OLLA
= Acione el “Mando depresor” hasta ka posicién ABIER-
TO y gire la tapa en sentido contrario las agujas del
reloj hasta el top
+ PARA CERRAR LA OLLA
Con el “Manco depresor” en posicin ABIERTO coloque a
tapa sobre el cuerpo haciendo coincidir la flecha grabada
sobre la misma cone punto que iene elas del cuerpo
— Haga girar la tapa en el sentido de las agujas del reloj
hasta el tope (Fig. D).
= Lleve el “Mando depresor” a la posicién inicial
(Fig B).
* COCCION EN LA OLLA. POSICIONES
DEL INDICADOR DE PRESION
— Coloque la Ola sobre el Fuego con el fococalorfco regu-
lado al maximo,
‘A continuacién puede seguir dos caminos:
1. Si desea utilizar la presin baja, gire la “Valvula
indicadora de presin” hasta la posicion I; éspere a
que en el “Indicador de presi” aparezca la primera
sefal (Fig. F). Baje después la infensidad del fuego
hasta que se mantenga dicha marca
En esta situacién, Vd. puede reblandecer ls alimen-
(os, teminar un guisado de care, et
Si quiere usar la presion alta, por tanto mayores tem-
peraturas y menor tiempo de coccién, gire la
*Valvulaindicadora de presi” hasta la poscion I;
espere a que salga la segunda sefal del “Indicador de
presin” (Fig. G) y baje la intensidad del calor como
enel caso anterior.
Esta posicin es la indicada para una cocina super
ripida,
Cualquier posicin entre I y Il equivale a presiones
comprendidas entre la mas alta y lamas baja y,repre-
sentaa la vez, unos tempos de cocci intermedia.
Los tiempos de coccidn se empiezan a contar desde
el momento que aparece la segunda sefial del
“Indicador de presin”.
