PROBLEM:
Steam is escaping around the edge of the
lid.
REASON:
1. The pressure cooker is too full.
2. The pressure cooker was not closed
properly.
3. The rubber gasket is not in place, or is
dirty or worn.
SOLUTION:
1. Never fill the pressure cooker more
than half or 2/3 full, depending on the
type of food being prepared.
2. Following the instructions given in this
manual, close the pressure cooker so
that a tight seal is created, which will
allow for adequate pressure build-up.
3. Make sure the rubber gasket is clean
and well positioned before using the
pressure cooker. After continued use,
the rubber gasket will begin to wear
and should be replaced approximately
once a year or more often if the
pressure cooker is used frequently.
PROBLEM:
The pressure cooker cannot be opened
after cooking.
REASON:
1. There is still pressure built-up in the
pressure cooker.
SOLUTION:
1. Use the quick release method to
release any remaining pressure. Try
opening again.
2. Move the operating valve to the
position showed in Fig. 10. Take the
valve out.

Foods are under-cooked.

food has benefit of additional cooking
time as pressure drops.
