Place trivet / steamer rack in the inner pot.
Place whole, unpeeled, swede on the trivet / steamer rack.
Check that the sealing ring is in place properly. Lid on.
Programme 10 minutes (if your swede is rather large, you may want to increase the time).
At the end of pressure cooking time, do a quick pressure release (this means venting the steam trapped inside manually).
