Possible Causes

Food residue around float pin, Swollen or damaged float valve silicone cap, Misaligned float guide, Insufficient liquid in pot

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Allow the cooker to cool and ensure no pressure remains before working on the float valve.

  • Clean float assembly: Remove the inner lid and gently push the float pin up and down. Clean around it with warm soapy water.
  • Inspect silicone cap: Remove the silicone cap from the float pin and check for deformation or cracks. Replace if necessary.
  • Check liquid level: Ensure you are using enough liquid for pressure cooking as specified in the Hisense manual.
  • Reassemble and test: Refit the cap and inner lid, then run a water-only pressure test to confirm the float rises properly.
