VALVE WASHER
33
TO REPLACE
1. Clean and dry the area (called the safety valve body) from which the
used safety valve was unscrewed and into which the replacement safety
valve will be screwed.
2. Place the replacement washer over the replacement safety valve as
shown below.
3. Hold the valve with the washer
on it as shown above and apply a
small amount of food compatible
glue on the valve threads. Holding
the safety valve with the threads
pointing into the safety valve body,
screw the valve (with washer)
clockwise into the safety valve body.
Tighten clockwise with spanner.
Replacement of Plastic Handles
The short body handle, the long body handle and the lid handle are
all replaceable by unscrewing the existing handle and screwing on a
replacement handle. Clean any accumulated dirt from the area before
attaching the new handle.
If the long body handle or the short body handle is difficult to
unscrew, a second person holding the cooker body firmly while one
person turns the handle screw anti-clockwise will make it easier.
Sealing Ring Replacement
If leakage develops along the rim of the cooker body which is not
due to the misalignment of the lid or a dent on the rim or lid curl, the
sealing ring needs to be replaced. This is simply done by changing it
with a replacement genuine Futura sealing ring to fit the size of your
Futura (see page 8).
Safety Valve Replacement
1. Get a genuine Futura safety valve. The two parts of the safety valve are:
2. The ring end of a
3
/4 inch/19 mm offset spanner/wrench or the ring
or open end of a
3
/4 inch/19 mm spanner is recommended to replace
the safety valve.
3. A food compatible glue is recommended.
4. Remove the pressure regulator from lid.
TO REMOVE
With one hand, hold and brace the lid upside down on a soft surface
such as a folded kitchen cloth or a
rubber mat. Take care not to bend
or warp the lid curl. Do not hold
the lid by the handle. With the
other hand, place a spanner on the
used safety valve and unscrew
the safety valve in the direction
(anti-clockwise) shown by the two
arrows marked on the safety valve.
Remove safety valve and washer. Discard; do not reuse either part.
