How to Fix / Troubleshooting

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

  • Soak and clean: Remove all removable lid parts and soak in warm soapy water. Scrub gently to remove buildup.
  • Inspect for deformation: Check the sealing ring, float valve cap, and steam release seals for swelling, cracks, or hardening. Replace any suspect parts.
  • Follow manual diagrams: Refer to the user manual for correct orientation and installation of each lid component.
  • Replace lid assembly: If plastic lid components are warped or cracked, replace the entire lid assembly.
