Multicooker makes loud clicking, popping, or metallic noises during heating or pressure build-up.

Safety first: Unplug and cool the cooker before internal inspection.

• Remove debris: Take out the inner pot and remove any grains, seeds, or debris from the heating plate area.
• Tighten screws: From the underside, check and gently tighten the screws securing the heating plate and inner chassis.
• Check pot fit: Ensure the inner pot sits flat and does not wobble. Replace if the base is deformed.
• Monitor noise: Some mild clicking from metal expansion is normal, but loud or grinding noises may indicate a warped plate that should be inspected by a technician.
