Solution: ◆ The Variable Temperature/Pressure Control may have been set on too high during pressure cooking and the water turned to steam too fast.

The Pressure Cooker Lid cannot be opened.

Solution: ◆ All the pressure that had built up inside the Pressure Cooker during cooking must be let out through the Steam Vent Tube and the Pressure Indicator Safety Valve with Pressure Lift Pin before the Lid can be opened.

◆ The Pressure Cooker Lid may not be tightly clamped onto the Pan.

Helpful Hints

No steam comes out of the Steam Vent Tube.

Solution:

◆Check to make sure that the Gasket is in place under the Steam Vents all the way around the Lid.

◆Make sure that the Pressure Regulator Valve with Steam Vent Tube, Pressure Indicator Safety Valve with Pressure Lift Pin, or Safety Valves do not have any food clogging the openings.

◆At least 1 cup of water or other liquid must be used when pressure cooking foods.

◆Turn the Variable Temperature/Pressure Control to WARMING and unplug the unit. The POWER Indicator Light will turn off. Wait until the pressure has totally been released from the Pressure Regulator Valve and the Pressure Lift Pin has dropped.

◆Not enough water was placed into the Pressure Cooker at the start of the cooking process.

◆For pressure cooking, add at least 1 to 2-1/2 cups of liquid to make sure you have enough liquid to cook until done.
