2. Safety information
D
Instructions for use
GB
• Read the Instructions for Use and all other information thoroughly before you use the vitavit®. Incorrect use can
be dangerous.
• Do not let anyone use the pressure cooker before reading the Instructions for Use.
• If you give your pressure cooker to anyone, make sure you also provide the Instructions for Use.
F
Supervision
NL
• Never use the pressure cooker near children.
I
• Never use the pressure cooker or pressure skillet in the oven. The handles, valves, and safety mechanisms would
be damaged by the high temperatures.
• When deep-frying in the pressure cooker, do not cover it, and only fill it halfway with oil. Never deep-fry under
E
pressure! (See Chapter 8)
• Pressure cookers may not be used for medical purposes – especially not as sterilizers, as pressure cookers are not
designed to reach the temperatures necessary for sterilizing.
• Do not cook applesauce or stewed fruits in a pressure cooker, because pockets of steam often form that can
P
spatter up when the cooker is opened and cause scalding.
• If you have cooked meat with skin that can swell when under pressure, do not pierce it as long as the skin is
swollen, as this could result in burns.
GR
Safety and maintenance
• Each time you use your pressure cooker, make sure beforehand that none of the valves and safety mechanisms are
TR
damaged or dirty and that they function properly. This is the only way to guarantee that it will operate safely. You
will find information on this in Chapter 5.
• Do not alter the pressure cooker – especially the safety mechanisms – in any way, other than performing the
maintenance measures mentioned in the Instructions for Use. Do not oil the valves. RUS
• Regularly replace parts that are subject to wear, such as the silicone gasket and other rubber parts, with original
Fissler replacement parts after you have used the pressure cooker about 400 times or, at the latest, after 2 years.
Parts that show visible damage (e.g. tears, discolorations or deformations) or that do not fit correctly must be
replaced immediately. Otherwise, this could affect how well and how safely your pressure cooker works.
S
• Use only original Fissler replacement parts. It is especially important for you to only use pots and lids for the same
model, as well as other replacement parts that are intended specifically for your cooker. (See Chapter 12)
PL
27
In case of extreme overheating, plastic parts on the cooker or the aluminum in the base could melt and liquefy. If
this should occur, turn off the heat source and do not move the cooker until it has cooled down completely. Air
the room.
• Do not fill the pressure cooker to more than ⅔ of its volume. (See “max“ marking)
For foods that foam or swell while they are cooking, such as rice, legumes, broths or dried vegetables, do not fill
the pressure cooker to more than half full. (See “½“ marking)
• Never leave your pressure cooker unattended. Regulate the energy source so that the traffic light indicator
does not show the red ring. If the energy source is not turned down, steam will escape through the valve and
the amount of liquid in the cooker will be reduced. If all of the liquid should vaporize, the food will burn and the
cooker and burner may be damaged.
• Move the pressure cooker very carefully when it is under pressure. Do not touch the hot surfaces. Use the hand-
les and controls and, if necessary, potholders.
Important
• Do not use the pressure cooker if it – or any of its parts – is damaged or deformed or does not function as de-
scribed in these Instructions for Use. In this case, get in touch immediately with the closest Fissler retailer or with
the Customer Service Department at Fissler GmbH. (For the address, see Chapter 13.)

Positioning aid
On the lid, there is a metal tab that says “Close” (Fig. A-8). The counterpart to it is a groove (Fig. A-9) in the pot
handle. This makes it easy to place the lid in the correct position.
Locking indicator
See Fig. F
The locking indicator (Fig. A-3) in the lid handle will tell you whether the cooker is correctly closed and ready to use:
Cleaning
Wash the pot, lid and silicone gasket thoroughly before using the pressure cooker for the first time. This will remove
any traces of polishing dust and minor impurities.
We recommend the subsequent use of Fissler Stainless Steel Care (or another product for the care of stainless steel
cookware) for the pot and lid. This will make the stainless steel more resistant to the influences of salts and acidic
substances. Residues of the care product should be thoroughly washed off. Use the care product as needed or when
you notice changes in the appearance of the stainless steel surface.
30
D
Safety mechanisms
GB
Your vitavit® pressure cooker is equipped with various mechanisms that automatically make your pressure cooker
safe. Before you use the pressure cooker, and each time you use it, be sure to check that the following safety me-
chanisms are functioning properly. Never alter these in any way. Make sure that the control valve and the lid handle
are properly and firmly attached before you begin to cook. You will find information on this in Chapter 10.
F
Control valve (Fig. A-5)
See Fig. G
NL
Remove the control valve from the lid and turn it to Setting 2. Use your finger to check whether the traffic light
indicator (1) and the valve body (2) can move freely and spring back.
I
See Fig. H+I
Make sure that the Euromatic is clean and can move freely in the lid. The o-ring must lie completely in the groove
provided for it.
E
See Fig. J
Use your finger to check whether the white ball in the Euromatic does not stick and can move freely and spring
back.
P
Silicone gasket (Fig. A-20) and safety nubs (Fig. A-17)
See Fig. K
Make sure that the silicone gasket and the edge of the lid are clean, that the silicone gasket has not been damaged,
GR
and that the safety nubs can move freely. Insert the silicone gasket so that it lies completely flat, under the part of the
edge that curves inward, on the inside of the lid. The silicone gasket must fit in front of the safety nubs, that is, pressed
away from the edge of the lid.
TR
Filling capacity
See Fig. L
Please note the following information on filling amounts. A scale found on the inside of the pot will make it easier to RUS
measure these amounts.
“min“
Depending on the diameter of the pressure cooker, at least 200-300 ml of liquid is necessary to produce steam,
S
regardless of whether you are using an inset or not. Never use the pressure cooker without having this minimum
amount of liquid (see “min“ marking).
PL
Ø 18 cm: 200 ml
Ø 22 cm: 250 ml
Ø 26 cm: 300 ml
CZ
“max“
The pressure cooker may only be filled up to ⅔ full to function safely (see “max“ marking).
ARA
31
“½“
For foods that foam or expand during cooking, such as rice, legumes, broths, or dried vegetables, the pressure cooker
may only be filled half full (see “½“ marking).
Important:
Never cook without sufficient liquid, and make sure that the liquid in the pressure cooker never steams away
completely. Otherwise, the food may burn and the cooker, handles and burner can be damaged (see safety inst-
ructions).
Suitable stoves
The fully encapsulated CookStar all-stove base ensures optimal heat absorption, distribution and storage and can be
used on all kinds of stoves, including induction. The integrated expansion joints, seen as a star on the bottom of the
cooker, ensure that the base will be absolutely stable. The proper contact between the base and the burner is thus
ensured – for the best of cooking results.
The indicated settings should serve as guidelines. For induction cooking, depending on the power, lower settings may
be used. Please also refer to the information given in the instructions for your stove.
Whether empty or containing fat, an open pressure cooker may never be heated at the highest energy level for
more than 2 minutes. If overheated, the base can turn golden. This discoloration does not affect how well the cooker
functions, however.
Solid/glass ceramic (radiation/halogen): The diameter of the burner should be the same as or smaller than the
diameter of the pot base.
Gas stove: Place the cooker in the center, and make sure that the flames do not extend up the sides of the cooker.
Induction: Always place the cooker in the center of the cooking zone. The base of the pot should be the same size
as or larger than the cooking zone. Otherwise, it is possible that the cooking zone will not be triggered by the pot
base.
32
Special information for induction stoves: To prevent overheating and damage to the cookware as a result of the
D
high induction power, never heat the cooker up empty or unattended. Please also adhere to the Instructions for Use
provided by the stove manufacturer. A humming sound may come from your cooker while it is in use. This sound has
technical reasons and does not indicate that there is a defect in your stove or cookware.
GB
Tips for saving energy
- When cooking at the gentle or speed setting, regulate the energy source so that the traffic light indicator does not
F
enter the red area and the valve does not begin to release steam.
- Use a burner that is the right size. (See notes above)
- Choose cookware that is the right size for the amount of food you are preparing.
- Take advantage of the heat stored in the base. Turn off the heat source even before the end of the cooking period,
NL
so that you can use the cooling off period.
I
Numerous cooking methods are possible in your pressure cooker: stewing or braising, sautéing and deep-frying
(without the lid), as well as thawing, preserving, and extracting juice. You will find more information on ways to use
your pressure cooker, as well as on how to use the insets, in Chapter 8.
E
Preparing
Place the ingredients called for in your recipe in the pressure cooker. Make sure you observe the specified filling
P
capacities. (See Chapter 5)
Then place the lid on the cooker and close it. If the locking indicator (Fig. A-3) in the lid handle is green, the cooker is
GR
ready to start cooking. (See Chapter 4)
TR
See Fig. M
Select the desired cooking setting on the control valve (Fig. A-5). The table of cooking times (Chapter 9) will give you
suggestions for this.
RUS
Setting 1, approx. 110°C (Gentle Setting)
(45 kPa operating pressure)

Yellow ring:
“The selected cooking setting will soon be reached. You can turn down the heat.”
Depending on the kind of stove and what you are cooking, you may need to reduce the energy sooner or later. For
solid burners or glass ceramic cooking surfaces at the beginning of the yellow ring, for induction or gas toward the
end of the yellow ring.
Green ring:
“The selected cooking setting has been reached. The actual cooking time begins now.”
Adjust the energy source so that the traffic light indicator remains in the green area during the entire cooking period.
Red ring:
“The temperature in the cooker is too high. The cooker will automatically begin to release steam to regulate the
temperature. You need to turn down the heat source.”
The energy source should be regulated so that the traffic light indicator does not enter the red zone. Otherwise, the
cooker will lose liquid due to the release of steam.
Important:
Make sure that the liquid in the pressure cooker never completely vaporizes. (See information in Chapter 5.)
Cooking times
The actual cooking time begins once the selected cooking setting (green ring) has been reached. You will find the
cooking times for various foods in Chapter 9.
Basic rules:
1. The cooking time at Setting 2 is about ½ to ⅓ of the normal cooking time.
2. The cooking time at Setting 1 is about 50% longer than at Setting 2.
3. Cooking times for the same food can vary, since the amount, size and consistency of the foods influence the
cooking time.

At the end of the cooking time, remove the pressure cooker from the heat source and depressurize it. (See
information in the following chapter.) Only then can you open it.
F
7. Depressurizing the vitavit®
NL
Important:
Never try to force the pressure cooker open. The cooker can only be opened when the traffic light indicator
has fallen into its socket completely and no more steam escapes when the release button is activated. Once the
cooker has been depressurized, the release button can be easily pressed in order to open the cooker. Always
I
gently shake the cooker before you open it, to release steam pockets that may have formed in the food. If you do
not do this, you may be scalded by spattering food and steam.
E
There are 3 ways to depressurize your vitavit®.
The way you depressurize depends on the food you are cooking. For foods that tend to foam or rise, such as legu-
mes, soups or stews, or for foods with a delicate peel, such as jacket potatoes, do not select a method that reduces
P
the pressure quickly, as this could cause the food to be ejected or the peel to burst.
Method 1
GR
“Quick depressurizing with the release button”
See Fig. O
Press the release button (Fig. A-2) gently in the direction shown by the arrow, and steam will escape from under the
TR
lid handle (Fig. A-4). Hold the button in until the traffic light indicator has fallen back into its socket completely and
no more steam is escaping. Then release the button, shake the cooker gently, and press the release button again. Re-
peat this until no more steam escapes. Once the cooker is depressurized, the Euromatic will sink. The release button
can now be pressed in completely to open the cooker. RUS
Note:
As long as there is any pressure in the cooker, the release button cannot be pressed completely. This is normal, and it
S
ensures that the cooker cannot be accidentally opened while under pressure. Do not try to force the release button!
Method 2
“Let it cool off ”
PL
If you would like to take advantage of the residual energy in the cooker, use this method. Shortly before the end of
the cooking time, take the cooker off the stove and just let it gradually cool down until the traffic light indicator has
CZ
sunk completely.
ARA
35
Then press the release button gently in order to release any residual pressure. When no more steam escapes, let
go of the button, shake the cooker gently, and then press the release button again. Repeat this step until no more
steam escapes. When the cooker is fully depressurized, the Euromatic will sink again. Then the release button can be
pressed in fully to open the cooker.
This method is especially good for foods with longer cooking times.
Method 3
“Depressurize under running water”
See Fig. Q
If the escaping steam bothers you, cool off the cooker under running water. Just place the cooker in the sink and let
cold water run over the side of the lid (not over the lid handle or control valve) until the traffic light indicator has
sunk completely.
Then press the release button gently to release any residual pressure. When no more steam escapes, let go of
the button, shake the cooker gently, and then press the release button again. Repeat this step until no more steam
escapes. When the cooker is fully depressurized, the Euromatic will sink. Then the release button can be pressed
down fully to open the cooker.
• Heat the pressure cooker or pressure skillet without fat at medium heat (⅔ of stove power).
• Sprinkle a few drops of cold water into the pot. If they form clear pearls that “dance around” in the pot, this is the
right temperature for browning meat, with or without fat. Carefully remove the water from the pot, using a paper
towel, for example, before adding fat or placing the meat in the pot.
• Press the meat down firmly. After a few minutes, it will loosen by itself and can then be turned. Then you can add
any other ingredients needed.
• Add the liquid called for in your recipe, but at least 200-300 ml. (See Chapter 5)
• Close the cooker.
• Select the cooking setting and build pressure in the cooker. (See Chapter 6)
• The cooker must never be more than ⅔ full (“max“ marking). In the case of foods that swell or foam a great deal,
only half full (“½“ marking).
• First heat the soup in the open cooker and scoop off all of the foam that forms.
• Stir.
36
D
• Select the cooking setting and build pressure. (See Chapter 6)
Note: Soups and stews are generally cooked at Setting 2. See Chapter 9.
GB
Vegetables and potatoes
Vegetables and other delicate foods can be steamed very gently in the perforated inset. Depending on the model,
F
the inset may be included or else sold separately.
• Add a minimum of 200-300 ml of liquid (see “min“ marking) to the pressure cooker. If desired, also add herbs,
seasonings or wine.
NL
• Place the washed vegetables in the perforated inset and put the inset on top of the tripod in the pot.
• Close the cooker.
• Select the desired cooking setting and build pressure. (See Chapter 6)
I
Note: Vegetables are generally cooked at Setting 1. See Chapter 9.
Cooking rice
E
Rice can be cooked in the pressure cooker without an inset. To prepare brown rice:
P
• Add salt as desired.
• Add at least the minimum amount of liquid.
• Close the cooker.
• Select Setting 2 and build pressure until the proper temperature has been reached (green ring).
GR
• Cook about 7-9 minutes at Setting 2, then depressurize and open the cooker.
• Or else remove the cooker from the stove, set it aside, and let the rice simmer gently for about 15 minutes. Then
open the cooker.
TR
Note: Rice can also be cooked in the unperforated inset. Pour at least the minimum amount of liquid into the cooker.
Then put the unperforated inset containing rice and water (ratio about 1:1) in the cooker.
RUS
Cooking fish
Fish can be cooked in its own juice, with the minimum amount of liquid, at the bottom of the cooker or else
steamed in the perforated inset.
S
Deep-frying
PL
Foods can only be deep-fried in the pressure cooker without the lid!
To prevent burns caused by foaming or spattering oil, make sure that the pot you use is high enough.
CZ
• Fill the cooker at most half full (“½“ marking) with fat.
• Heat the fat at medium. Do not overheat it.
• The right temperature for deep-frying has been reached if bubbles immediately form around the handle of a
ARA
37
Preserving
The pressure cooker can also be used for preserving foods. Depending on the size of the preserving jars, you should
use the 4.5 l model or larger.
• Fill the jars up to about one finger’s breadth under the edge and close them.
• Place at least 200-300 ml of liquid (see “min“ marking) in the pressure cooker.
• Place the preserving jars in the cooker in the perforated inset.
• Close the cooker.
• Select the cooking setting and build pressure. (See Chapter 6)
Preserving times:
Marmelade Setting 1 1-2 min.
Fruits/pickled vegetables Setting 1 8-10 min.
Vegetables/meat Setting 2 20-25 min.
Do not depressurize the cooker quickly, but let it cool off slowly, otherwise the jars could burst!
Extracting juice
Both the perforated and the unperforated insets are needed for extracting juice from small amounts of fruit.
Do not depressurize the cooker quickly, but let it cool off slowly.
38
Sterilizing
D
Baby bottles or other items for use in the home (not for medical use) can be sterilized in the pressure cooker.
• Place at least 200-300 ml of liquid (see “min“ marking) in the pressure cooker.
GB
• Place the bottles with their opening pointed downward in the perforated inset.
• Close the cooker.
• Select Setting 2, build pressure, and sterilize for 20 minutes.
F
Do not depressurize the cooker quickly, but let it cool off slowly.
NL
By using the insets, you can prepare several foods at the same time, one on top of the other.
Rules:
• Cook fish over vegetables.
I
• Cook vegetables over meat.
• Foods with similar cooking times should be placed in the cooker and cooked at the same time.
• For foods with different cooking times, first place the food with the longest cooking time in the cooker and start
E
cooking it. When the remaining cooking time of this food is the same as the cooking time of the other foods,
remove the cooker from the stove, depressurize and open it, add the other foods, and then finish cooking.
• Since some steam will escape when the cooker is opened, at least 300 ml of liquid should be added to begin with.
P
Example:
Beef roulades (20 min.) with boiled potatoes (8 min.)
GR
First place the roulades in the cooker and cook them at Setting 2 for 12 minutes. Then remove the cooker from the
burner, depressurize it, open the cooker, and place the potatoes in the cooker in the perforated inset over the roula-
des by using the tripod. Close the cooker, build pressure, and cook at Setting 2 for an additional 8 minutes.
TR
9. Cooking times
The cooking times shown here should serve as guidelines and are calculated on the basis of approximately 2-3 RUS
portions.
Basic rules:
- The cooking time at Setting 2 is about ½ to ⅓ of the normal cooking time.
S
- The greater the total amount of food, the longer the cooking time
Example:
Jacket potatoes (whole), approx. 12 minutes; boiled potatoes (cut in half or quarters), about 8 minutes
CZ
Use the cooking times given here to work out your own personal times.
ARA
If you are not certain about a cooking time, cook the food for a shorter period to begin with. You can always conti-
nue cooking it.

D
Cleaning
GB
Always wash the pressure cooker after you have used it.
- Remove the silicone gasket from the lid and wash it by hand.
- Remove the control valve and wipe it off with a moist cloth.
- Remove the lid handle when needed (at the latest, when it looks dirty) and rinse it under running water.
F
- The pot, lid (without the silicone gasket, control valve, and lid handle), and insets can also be placed in the dish-
washer.
NL
Please note:
- To clean, use clear, hot water and dishwashing liquid and a dishwashing sponge or a soft brush. Do not use pointed,
rough or sharp objects. If the inside or bottom is very dirty, you can use the rough side of the sponge.
- Do not let food residues dry onto the cooker, and do not store foods in the cooker for a long time, as this could
I
cause stains in the stainless steel and changes in the surface.
- To maintain the stainless steel surface, use Fissler Stainless Steel Care regularly. It is outstanding for removing rain-
bow discolorations or films.
E
- When cleaning the cooker parts in the dishwasher, use only conventional household dishwashing products in the
amounts recommended by the manufacturer. Do not use industrial detergents or highly concentrated cleaning
products.

Replace parts that are subject to wear, such as the silicone gasket and other rubber parts, regularly after you have
cooked with it about 400 times, or after 2 years at the latest, with original Fissler replacement parts. Parts that show
visible damage (e.g. tears, discolorations or deformations) or that do not fit correctly must be replaced immediately.
Otherwise, the functioning and safety of your pressure cooker could be affected.
