English term or phrase: SIMMER
At the beginning of the manual there is a description of the terms used in the manual.

"Simmer
Simmer is characterized by the audible passage of a gas or vapor across the seating surfaces just prior to "pop". The difference between this "start to open pressure" and the set pressure is simmer, and is generally expressed as a percentage of set pressure."

Could you tell me how you would translate this word?

SIMMERING IS HAVING THE HEAT SO LOW SO AS TO PRODUCE SGTAM OR GAS BUT NOT CREATE PRESSURE TO POP. DOES HIS HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH A PRESSURE COOKER?
