7 Pressure cooking (optional)
DANGER
Risk of scalding and burns due to pressure cooking with alcohol
The system is designed for pressure cooking with water. If you pressurize food in liquids whose boiling point is
below that of water, such as alcohol, and unlock the lid of the crucible, the hot liquid may evaporate or splash
out of the crucible together with the food at a high velocity. This can cause severe scalding or burns.
1. Therefore, only use water as a cooking liquid when pressure cooking.
2. In addition, always wear your personal protective equipment.
With the optional pressure cooking function, the boiling temperature is increased by pressure and the cooking
time of casseroles, braised dishes, stocks, soups or stews is reduced by up to 35%. The iVarioBoost heating
system builds up pressure inside the pan, and maintains it at a constant level throughout the cooking process. This
constant pressure helps preserve the product’s structure, so you’ll be ready to serve great-quality food in no time.
Shorter cooking times help boost your productivity and capacity.
The pressure cooking system is best for cooks who plan on using it at least once per week. Using the pressure
cooking feature less frequently can result in inefficient operation, which means pressure takes longer to dissipate
once cooking is complete. In this case, RATIONAL recommends running the pressure cooking weekly using the
minimum required quantity of water. This will help keep the pressure cooking system running smoothly.

7.1 General safety information
n
The steam nozzle of the pan lid can come loose and fall into the food on heavy
impact. The steam nozzle may be served unnoticed and parts of the steam nozzle
may be swallowed.
n
Do not use oil, milk, or bound sauces when pressure cooking. These foods contain
too little water to build up pressure. The food may burn.
n
To avoid scalding and burn injuries:
– Wear personal protective equipment to protect yourself against burns and
scalding.
– Never fill the pan above the maximum or below the minimum fill level.
– Never pressure cook food in alcohol. Alcohol has a lower boiling point than
water and can boil over.
