Salter BW02713 5 Litre Pressure Cooker F.A.Q.

How do I safely release pressure from the Salter BW02713 pressure cooker?

To safely release pressure, use the quick release method by turning the pressure valve to the 'vent' position, or let it release naturally by allowing the cooker to cool down. Always ensure the vent is clear and do not force the lid open until the pressure indicator has dropped.

What should I do if the pressure cooker lid won't close properly?

Check the sealing ring for damage or food debris. Ensure it is seated correctly. Also, make sure the lid and pot edges are clean and free of obstructions.

How can I prevent food from burning at the bottom of the pressure cooker?

Ensure there is enough liquid in the cooker as per recipe instructions. Stir ingredients well before cooking, and avoid adding thickening agents until after pressure cooking.

What maintenance does the Salter BW02713 pressure cooker require?

Regularly check and clean the sealing ring, pressure valve, and safety plug. Inspect for wear and tear, replacing parts as necessary. Wash the pot and lid with mild detergent after each use.

Why is steam escaping from the sides of the pressure cooker?

This can occur if the sealing ring is damaged or not properly placed. Check for cracks or food debris on the ring and ensure it is fitted correctly.

How do I know when the pressure cooker has reached the correct pressure?

The pressure indicator will rise once the correct pressure is reached, and the cooker will start to hiss gently, indicating it's maintaining pressure.

Can I use the Salter BW02713 pressure cooker for canning?

This model is not specifically designed for canning. For safety, use a pressure canner that is intended for this purpose.

What should I do if my pressure cooker is not building pressure?

Ensure the lid is locked, the valve is set to 'seal', and there is adequate liquid inside. Check for any leaks or blockages in the pressure valve.

How do I clean stubborn stains inside the pressure cooker?

Soak the pot with warm water and a mild detergent. Use a non-abrasive sponge to scrub gently. For tough stains, a mixture of baking soda and water can be effective.

Is it safe to cook frozen food in the Salter BW02713 pressure cooker?

Yes, you can cook frozen food, but it will take longer to reach pressure. Ensure the food is evenly distributed and there is enough liquid to prevent burning.
