EASY SOLUTION
• Press the STEAM RELEASE button until all internal pressure is
released, and the cooker can be opened.
• If this occurs frequently, the cooker may need to be adjusted to suit
your current altitude. Follow "Altitude Adjust" instructions.
NOTE: The safety locking pin will drop when the lid can be opened.
• Using the lid knob, wiggle the lid up and down and then twist open and
close to reduce any friction caused by water or food.
• Turn the lid to the correct position for pressure cooking or slow
cooking.
• Assemble the lid correctly ensuring there is no gap between lid arm
and the stainless-steel lid. Make sure to secure the lid by screwing on
the sealing nut so that the red seal touches the lid surface; and should
be screwed on tightly.
• Ensure the silicone lid seal is clean, free from damage or cracks and is
properly inserted.
• Ensure that the safety locking pin can move freely up and down.
• When the lid is locked, ensure the safety locking pin is properly
aligned within the opening of the lid arm.
• Ensure that the Pressure Release Valve is properly seated in position
and facing the lid knob.
• Add more liquid/food to the bowl. There should be a minimum of
4 cups (1L) combined food and liquid.
• If problem persists, call Breville Customer Service.
• Add more water to the cooking bowl and restart the cycle.
• Ensure the cooker is on a flat level surface and that the condensation
drip cup is installed on the back of the cooker. Follow "Before First Use"
instructions on page 12.
• Empty the condensation drip cup.
• The screen will display "Err" when there is a non-resettable issue with
the appliance. Should this occur, immediately remove the power cord
from the power outlet and contact Breville Customer Service.
• Press and hold 'soup' and 'sous vide' buttons for three seconds to clear
settings including altitude level.
