Note that the operating valve will not simply turn to the unlock position. See the Care and Cleaning section of this manual for instructions on how to turn the valve to the unlock position to remove it.

3.Pot Handle: Besides being used to move and carry the pressure cooker, the pot handle interlocks with the lid handle when the lid is turned clockwise. (Fig. 6)
