Possible Causes
Broken inner lid clips, Worn silicone or metal retainers, Incorrect reinstallation after cleaning, Deformation from high heat or dishwasher use (if not dishwasher-safe)
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Allow the cooker to cool before reinstalling the inner lid.
- Check orientation: Ensure the inner lid is installed in the correct direction and fully engaged in its slots or clips.
- Inspect clips: Look for cracked or missing plastic tabs. If broken, the inner lid may not stay in place and should be replaced.
- Avoid forcing: Do not bend the inner lid to fit; this can damage the seal and affect pressure performance.
If the retainer mechanism is damaged on the main lid, the entire lid assembly may need replacement.
