Possible Causes

Weak or contaminated pressure sensor, Steam release valve spring weakened, Firmware detecting oscillating pressure, Leaking sealing ring

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Allow the cooker to cool and depressurize before servicing.

  • Clean and inspect valves: Thoroughly clean the steam release valve, float valve, and anti‑block shield. Replace any parts that appear worn.
  • Replace sealing ring: If the ring is more than 1–2 years old or shows wear, replace it with a genuine Severin ring.
  • Test with water: Run a pressure cycle with only water and observe if the cooker can hold pressure without frequent venting.
  • Sensor replacement: If mechanical parts are good but E20 persists, the pressure sensor may be drifting and should be replaced.

Warning: Do not adjust or stretch springs in safety valves; always replace with correct parts.
