What to do if I have difficulty opening the lid of my Instant Pot DUO EVO PLUS?

  If you're having trouble opening the lid of your Instant Pot Electric Pressure Cooker, it could be due to pressure inside the cooker. Make sure to release the pressure according to the recipe. Only attempt to open the lid after the float valve has dropped down. Alternatively, the float valve might be stuck because of food debris. In this case, ensure steam is completely released by quick-releasing pressure, then gently press the float valve with a long utensil. Open the lid carefully and thoroughly clean the float valve, surrounding area, and the lid before the next use.

Why is steam leaking from the side of the lid of my Instant Pot DUO EVO PLUS?

  If steam is leaking from the side of the lid on your Instant Pot Electric Pressure Cooker, several factors could be the cause. First, ensure that the sealing ring is properly fitted. If the sealing ring is damaged or not correctly installed, replace it. Food debris attached to the sealing ring can also cause leaks, so remove the sealing ring and clean it thoroughly. Make sure the lid is closed properly; open and then close it again. If the sealing ring rack is warped or off-center, remove the sealing ring from the lid and check the rack for any bends or warps. Contact Customer Care if needed. Finally, the inner pot rim might be misshapen; check for any deformation and contact Customer Care if necessary.

Why is steam gushing from the steam release valve of my Instant Pot DUO EVO PLUS?

  If steam gushes from the steam release valve when the quick release switch is in the Seal position on your Instant Pot Electric Pressure Cooker, it could be due to a few reasons. Ensure there is enough liquid in the inner pot by adding thin, water-based liquid according to the cooker size: 5.7 L: 375 mL or 8 L: 500 mL. It's also possible that there is a pressure sensor control failure, in which case you should contact Customer Care. Finally, make sure the steam release valve is seated properly by moving the quick release switch to the Seal position.

  If the inner pot of your Instant Pot Electric Pressure Cooker is stuck to the lid when you open the cooker, it's likely because the cooling of the inner pot has created suction, causing it to adhere to the lid. To release this vacuum, move the quick release switch to the Vent position.

  If the display remains blank after connecting the power cord to your Instant Pot Electric Pressure Cooker, inspect the power lead for any damage. If you notice any damage, contact Customer Care. Also, check the outlet to ensure it is powered. If that doesn't work, the cooker’s electrical fuse may have blown, in which case you should contact Customer Care.

Why does my Instant Pot Electric Pressure Cooker make clicking sounds?
- C
  Christy GlassSep 9, 2025
  If you notice occasional clicking or a light cracking sound from your Instant Pot Electric Pressure Cooker, it's likely the sound of power switching and the pressure board expanding when the temperature changes. This is normal, so no action is needed.

  If you observe minor steam leaking or hissing from the steam release valve during the cook cycle of your Instant Pot Electric Pressure Cooker, it might be because the quick release switch is not in the Seal position. Move the quick release switch to the Seal position to resolve this.
