This is a Listed appliance. The following important safeguards are recommended by most portable appliance manufacturers.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

To reduce the risk of personal injury or property damage, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1. Read all instructions. Improper use may result in bodily injury or property damage.

2. Always check the vent pipe before use. Hold cover up to light and look through vent pipe to be certain it is clear.

3. Always check the air vent/cover lock to make sure it moves freely before use.

4. Do not ll pressure canner over ⅔ full when using for pressure cooking. For soup, grains, and dry beans and peas which expand during

cooking, do not ll canner over ½ full. Overlling may cause a risk of blocking the vent pipe and developing excess pressure. See food

preparation instructions.

5. Do not pressure cook applesauce, cranberries, rhubarb, cereals, pasta, split peas, dried soup mixes, or any dry beans and peas which are not

listed in the chart on page 30. These foods tend to foam, froth, and sputter and may block the vent pipe, overpressure plug, and air vent/

cover lock.

6. This appliance cooks under pressure. Improper use may result in scalding injury. Make certain pressure canner is properly closed before

operating; cover handles must be above the body handles. See “HOW TO PRESSURE CAN FOODS” instructions.

7. Do not place the pressure canner or attempt to pressure can or cook in a heated oven.

8. CAUTION! Do not use pressure canner on any outdoor LP gas burner or a gas range over 12,000 BTU’s. Doing so may result in damage to

the pressure canner and/or property damage and personal injury.

9. Extreme caution must be used when moving a pressure canner containing hot liquids. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.

READ INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE OPERATING

psi

10. Do not open canner until internal pressure has been completely reduced, air vent/cover lock has dropped, and no steam escapes when the

pressure regulator is removed. See “HOW TO PRESSURE CAN FOODS” instructions.

11. To ensure safe operation and satisfactory performance, replace the overpressure plug every time you replace the sealing ring or sooner if it

becomes hard, deformed, cracked, worn, or pitted. It is recommended that the sealing ring and overpressure plug be replaced

least every

3 years. Use only genuine Presto

® replacement parts.

12. Close supervision is necessary when the pressure canner is used near children. It is recommended that children not use the pressure canner.

13. When operating pressure is reached, gradually lower the heat to maintain the pressure. If the pressure regulator is allowed to rock vigorously,

excess steam will escape, causing more liquid to evaporate. Food will scorch and the canner may go dry, resulting in damage to the canner.

14. Do not use this pressure canner for other than intended use.

15. Do not use this pressure canner for pressure frying with oil.

THIS APPLIANCE IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.

GETTING ACQUAINTED

Your canner is a special, large capacity pressure vessel designed for home canning a wide variety of fruits, vegetables, meats, poultry,

sh, and seafood. The canner may also be used to fast cook many of your favorite foods in larger quantities than can be prepared in a

conventional size pressure cooker.

The canner uses pressure to achieve the high temperatures required for safely processing foods while canning. The United States

Department of Agriculture (USDA) recommends the pressure canner as the only safe method for canning low-acid foods—vegetables,

meats, poultry, sh, and seafood.

The canner will also cook many foods in one-third to one-tenth the time required by conventional methods. Pressure cooking

preserves avor and nutrients and tenderizes tougher cuts of meat. Information for pressure cooking begins on page 24.

Become familiar with the various parts shown below and on page 3.

Do not attempt to use your pressure canner before reading the

instructions on pages 5 through 7.

*Portable burners may not be suitable for canning. They may not have enough wattage to pressurize a fully loaded canner and/or they may not be able to support the

weight of a fully loaded canner. Refer to the owner’s manual for your portable heat source for weight restrictions and other information.

The 16-quart canner weighs 15 pounds when lled with 3 quarts of water. When used for pressure canning, a fully loaded canner will weigh up to 35 pounds. When

used for the boiling water method, it will weigh up to 41 pounds.

The 23-quart canner weighs 16 pounds when lled with 3 quarts of water. When used for pressure canning, a fully loaded canner will weigh up to 46 pounds. When

used for the boiling water method, it will weigh up to 52 pounds.

1. PRESSURE DIAL GAUGE

The pressure dial gauge registers pressure

in pounds per square inch, or PSI. The

pointer moves around the dial indicating

the pressure within the unit. Pressure can

be controlled and maintained by adjusting

the heat setting on your stove.

NOTE: The pressure dial gauge can be

found in the foam ller of the carton.

2. PRESSURE REGULATOR

The pressure regulator acts as a safety
