PROBLEM SOLUTION
If you have not added enough liquid to the
pressure cooker, and the floating valve has
not risen, while the timer is counting down.
1. Stop the pressure cooking by pressing the STOP/START button.
2. Turn the pressure regulator knob to STEAM, using short bursts, until the
pressure is fully released.
3. ONLY THEN remove the lid and add approx. 1 cup (8 oz) of water or liquid.
Stir to mix all food.
4. Place the lid back on, turn to counter clockwise to lock.
5. Press the LOW or HIGH pressure button and set the desired time.
6. Press the START/STOP button to begin cooking again.
If the steam is leaking from under the cover,
because the cover is not properly closed, the
gasket isn’t positioned properly or is damaged,
or the pressure cooker is overfilled.
1. UNPLUG THE POWER CORD FROM THE POWER OUTLET.
2. Turn the pressure regulator knob to STEAM, using short bursts, until the
pressure is fully released.
3. ONLY THEN remove the lid. Check the gasket for any tears or cracks.
4. Check to make sure the gasket is positioned properly (p.14 steps 5-7).
5. If too full, remove excess liquid and continue cooking.
HELPFUL TIPS - TROUBLESHOOTING
- When cooking on the PRESSURE setting, for best cooking results always use at least 1 cup (8 oz) of water or liquid so enough
steam can build up to produce pressure.
- Do not fill the Pressure Cooker more than 1/2 full with food or 2/3 full with liquid. There must be enough liquid to create
steam, otherwise the food will not be cooked properly.
- If you are not sure of the cooking time for certain foods while cooking on Pressure Setting, it is recommended to under cook
and check the doneness by performing the Quick Pressure Release method (on p.9). Continue cooking if the food requires
more time.
- When using the High and Low pressure setting, the timer should not begin counting down until the right amount of pressure
has been created.
- Always cook fresh fruit on low pressure.
- You may choose tougher, less expensive cuts of meat to be cooked on pressure setting, as the meat will break down and
get tender.
- When cooking beans, add a tablespoon of oil to reduce foaming during the cooking process.
