How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure the cooker is cool and unplugged before working on the lid.

  • 1. Consult manual: Review the Chefman instructions for the correct removal and insertion angle of the inner lid.
  • 2. Clean clips and grooves: Remove any dried food or scale from the retaining clips and grooves with a brush and warm water.
  • 3. Inspect for warping: Lay the inner lid on a flat surface to check for warping. Replace if significantly bent.
  • 4. Gently adjust clips: If metal clips are slightly bent, carefully straighten them with pliers. Do not over-bend, as they can snap.
