How to close the lid of my Instant Pot Electric Pressure Cooker?

  Teresa CamachoAug 17, 2025
  If you're having difficulty closing the lid, make sure the sealing ring is properly installed and snug behind the sealing ring rack. Also, check if the float valve is in the popped-up position; if it is, gently press it downward with a long utensil. If the contents in the cooker are still hot, move the quick release switch into the Vent position, then lower the lid onto the cooker base slowly, allowing heat to dissipate.

Why is steam leaking from the side of my Instant Pot DUO EVO PLUS Electric Pressure Cooker lid?
- B
  Benjamin PrestonAug 20, 2025
  Steam may leak from the side of the lid for several reasons. Make sure there is a sealing ring in the lid. If there is one, it might be damaged or improperly installed, in which case you should replace it. Food debris attached to the sealing ring can also cause leaks, so remove the sealing ring and clean it thoroughly. Ensure the lid is closed properly. The sealing ring rack could be warped or off-center, inspect it for bends or warps. Also, the inner pot rim may be misshapen, check for deformation.

What to do if I have difficulty opening the lid of my Instant Pot Electric Pressure Cooker?

  If you're having trouble opening the lid, it's likely due to pressure inside the cooker. Release the pressure according to your recipe and only attempt to open the lid after the float valve has dropped down. Another possibility is that the float valve is stuck in the popped-up position because of food debris or residue. Ensure all steam is released by quick releasing pressure, then gently press the float valve with a long utensil. After opening, clean the float valve, the surrounding area, and the lid thoroughly before your next use.

Why does steam gush from the steam release valve on my Instant Pot DUO EVO PLUS when the quick release switch is in the Seal position?
- M
  Michael YoungAug 28, 2025
  If steam gushes from the steam release valve when the quick release switch is in the Seal position, it could be due to a few reasons. First, ensure there is enough liquid in the inner pot; add thin, water-based liquid. It could also be due to the steam release valve not being seated properly; move the quick release switch to the Seal position. If neither of these resolves the issue, it may indicate a pressure sensor control failure, in which case you should contact Customer Care.

  If the inner pot is stuck to the lid when you open the cooker, it's likely because the cooling of the inner pot has created a suction. To release the vacuum, move the quick release switch into the Vent position.

  Minor steam leaking or hissing from the steam release valve during the cook cycle is often normal. First, ensure the quick release switch is in the Seal position. If it is, the cooker is likely just regulating excess pressure, which requires no action.
