  If the lid of your Carl Schmidt Sohn Electric Pressure Cooker won’t open, it could be due to pressure inside. Wait for the pressure to release naturally, or carefully turn the steam vent handle to the Venting position. The lid will unlock once the pressure is fully released. Also, check if the float is stuck in the raised position and gently press the float down.
