How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure the unit is cool before adjusting the lid or hinge.

  • Inspect hinge: Open the lid fully and examine the hinge pins and brackets for bending or looseness.
  • Clean hinge area: Remove any dried food or grease from the hinge and locking ring using a damp cloth.
  • Check gasket seating: Ensure the silicone gasket is fully seated and not bulging, which can prevent proper closure.
  • Do not force: If significant resistance is felt, do not force the lid closed. A bent hinge or warped lid may require replacement.
