How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure the cooker is cool before removing the gasket.

  • Clean gasket: Wash the gasket with warm soapy water and let it air dry completely.
  • Deodorize: Soak in a solution of water and a small amount of vinegar or baking soda to reduce odors, then rinse and dry.
  • Inspect for damage: If the gasket is stretched, cracked, or no longer fits tightly, replace it.

A worn gasket can prevent proper pressure sealing and should be replaced with an All-Clad compatible part.
