Why is steam leaking from the side of my Instant Pot Kitchen Appliances lid?
- A
  Angela RitterAug 17, 2025
  Steam leaking from the side of the Instant Pot Kitchen Appliances lid can be due to several reasons: * There is no sealing ring in the lid. Install a sealing ring. * The sealing ring is damaged or not installed properly. Replace the sealing ring. * There is food debris on the sealing ring. Remove the sealing ring and clean it thoroughly. * The lid is not closed properly. Open, then close the lid. * The sealing ring rack is warped or off-centre. Remove the sealing ring from the lid, then check the sealing ring rack for bends or warps. * The inner pot rim may be misshapen. Check for deformation.

What to do if I have difficulty opening the Instant Pot Kitchen Appliances lid?

  Marie LawsonAug 19, 2025
  If you're having trouble opening the lid of your Instant Pot Kitchen Appliances, it could be due to pressure inside the multicooker. Release the pressure according to the recipe and only attempt to open the lid after the float valve has dropped down. If the float valve is stuck in the popped-up position because of food debris or residue, release the pressure completely, then gently tap the float valve with a long utensil. Allow the multicooker to cool slightly so all pressure can be released. Open the lid cautiously, then thoroughly clean the float valve, surrounding area, and lid before the next use. Do not attempt to force the lid open to avoid scalding injury.

  If steam gushes from the steam release valve when the quick release switch is in the Seal position on your Instant Pot Kitchen Appliances, it could be due to: * Not enough liquid in the inner pot. Add thin, water-based liquid to the inner pot according to its size: 5.7L: 1 ½ cups (375 mL) 8L: 2 cups (500 mL). * The steam release valve is not seated properly. Move the steam release switch to Vent then back to the Seal position.

  Melissa JohnsonAug 27, 2025
  If you're having difficulty closing the lid of your Instant Pot Kitchen Appliances, it might be because: * The sealing ring is not properly installed. Reposition the sealing ring, ensuring it is snug behind the sealing ring rack. * The float valve is in the popped-up position. Gently press the float valve downward with a long utensil. * The contents in the multicooker are still hot. Hold the quick release switch in the Vent position as you lower the lid onto the multicooker base slowly, allowing heat to dissipate.

  Patricia MartinezAug 30, 2025
  The float valve on your Instant Pot Kitchen Appliances might not rise due to: * Food debris on the float valve or float valve silicone cap. Remove the float valve from the lid and clean it thoroughly. * Too little liquid in the inner pot. Check for scorching on the bottom of the inner pot. Add thin, water-based liquid to the inner pot according to its size: 5.7L: 1 ½ cups (375 mL) 8L: 2 cups (500 mL). * Float valve silicone cap damaged or missing. Install or replace the float valve and/or silicone cap. * Float valve obstructed by lid-locking mechanism. Tap the float valve with a long utensil.

Why is there minor steam leaking from the steam release valve during the cook cycle of my Instant Pot Kitchen Appliances?

  Kevin HillSep 5, 2025
  Minor steam leaking or hissing from the steam release valve during the cook cycle of your Instant Pot Kitchen Appliances can occur if the quick release switch is not in the Seal position. Move the quick release switch to the Seal position and add additional liquid to the inner pot. Also, it is normal when the multicooker is regulating excess pressure. Ensure there is minimum liquid in the inner pot.
