Water or steam leaks from the float valve area; float may not rise fully.

Safety first: Let the cooker cool and depressurize before working on the float valve.

• 1. Disassemble float valve: Remove the small retaining clip and take out the float pin and silicone cap.
• 2. Clean components: Clean the float, cap, and valve seat thoroughly. Remove any starch or food buildup.
• 3. Inspect silicone cap: Replace the float valve silicone cap if it is cracked, hardened, or misshapen.
• 4. Reassemble correctly: Reinstall the float in the correct orientation with the cap on the inside and the clip on the outside.
• 5. Test pressure: Run a water-only pressure test to ensure the float seals and rises properly.
