  If you're having difficulty opening the lid of your Magic Chef Kitchen Appliance, it could be due to the following reasons: * The float valve fails to fall after steam releases. Solution: Lightly press the float valve down with a long utensil like chopsticks. * There is still pressure inside the cooker. Solution: Use the quick release method and position the exhaust valve to “Venting” to allow the pressure to escape. You will be able to open the lid once the pressure is released.
