Steam is being
released from the
Pressure Limiting
Valve (3) during the
pressurizing
sequence. How do I
fix this?
This may happen during the initial start-up of the Pressurizing Sequence and
is normal. If it continues for more than 10 minutes, the Valve (3) may not be
positioned properly. Simply use tongs or similar utensil and oven mitt and
carefully adjust the valve by gently tapping it side to side until it seals
properly. If the steam continues to release, you may need to press the KEEP
WARM/CANCEL button. Follow the instructions to release all pressure before
opening the lid to remove the Pressure Limiting Valve and check the thin
wire spring on the underside of it. Make sure it is not bent or loose. If steam
still continues to escape, the Valve may be faulty and replacement or repair
may be necessary. Please contact customer service at (800) 365-6133 ext.

Steam is being
released from the
Float Valve (4) area
during the
pressurizing
sequence. How do I
fix this?
This may happen during the initial start-up of the Pressurizing Sequence and
is normal. If it continues for more than 10 minutes, simply use tongs or
similar utensil and oven mitt to carefully adjust it so it is seated properly.
This will help settle the lid and all the valves properly. The pressure will
quickly push up on the Float Valve and seal properly to finish the
pressurizing sequence.
My food is finished
cooking and all the
pressure is released,
but I cannot unlock
and open my lid.
What is stuck?
Make sure all the pressure and steam has been completely released. Make
sure the Red Float Valve (4) is no longer in the up position. It may be stuck in
the UP position, simply tap the lid gently to make it go back down. Then
turn the lid clockwise to unlock the lid. If it is still stuck, unplugging the unit
may help.
What is the clear
plastic part that came
with my pressure
cooker?
It is the Condensation Cup: Refer to part (12) on pages 5 and 7 to attach the
condensation cup to the back of the pressure cooker.
I've programmed the
pressure cooker to
cook but it's just
sitting there and
nothing appears to
be happening.
The unit is still building pressure. This can take between 5-40 minutes
depending on the quantity of food.
The unit is DEAD or
has NO POWER.
The fuse in the unit has shorted out. This happens if the unit is cooked
without enough liquid in the inner pot or if there is too much electrical
current going to the cooker. Please contact customer service at (800) 365-
6133 ext. 120/107/105 for a replacement fuse.
The LED display
shows E4 error.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet. Wait approximately 15
minutes. Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet. Press "CANCEL"
button on the pressure cooker. Select cooking process to begin cooking. If
problem persists, contact customer service at (800) 365-6133 ext.
120/107/105 for a replacement thermofuse.
My food is burned at
the bottom of the
inner pot.
There is not enough liquid in the inner pot. Add more liquid to your inner
pot contents.
