Pressure control features
Float valve
The oat valve is a visual indication of whether there is pressure in the multicooker
(pressurised) or not (depressurised). It appears in two positions:
Pressurised
The oat valve has visibly popped
up and is ush with the lid.
Depressurised
The oat valve has
dropped down into the lid.
The oat valve and silicone cap work together to seal in pressurised steam. These parts
must be installed before use. Do not attempt to operate the Instant Pot without the oat
valve properly installed. Do not touch the float valve during use.
DANGER
DO NOT attempt to remove the lid while the oat valve is up and NEVER
attempt to force the lid open. Contents are under extreme pressure. Float
valve must be down before attempting to remove the lid. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in serious personal injury and/or property damage.
Anti-block shield
The anti-block shield prevents food
particles from coming up through the
steam release pipe, assisting with pressure
regulation.
The anti-block shield is integral to product
safety and necessary for pressure cooking.
