Food consistently burns on the bottom of the inner pot during pressure or sauté modes.

Safety first: Use heat-resistant gloves when handling the hot pot.

• Increase liquid: Add more water or broth to thin thick sauces and prevent dry spots.
• Layer ingredients: Place liquids and thinner ingredients at the bottom, with thicker sauces or starchy foods on top.
• Stir during sauté: When using Sauté, stir frequently and avoid leaving food unattended on high heat.
• Check pot condition: Inspect the inner pot for warping or hot spots. Replace if the bottom is no longer flat.
