  If the 'Cooking' light is flashing on the Sunbeam Electric Pressure Cooker's LCD screen, this indicates that the appliance is either warming up to pressure or, in the case of frypan menus, reaching the set temperature. Wait for the 'Cooking' light to stop flashing before proceeding. If the unit struggles to gain pressure, ensure the sealing gasket is correctly positioned in the gasket holder or needs replacement. Also, verify that the pressure and steam safety valve is in the 'Seal' position.

  If you find it difficult to close the lid of your Sunbeam Electric Pressure Cooker, it's likely due to the sealing gasket not being correctly positioned. Carefully remove the lid and check that the sealing gasket is smoothly in place within the gasket holder. If it's damaged or worn, consider replacing it.

  If the LCD screen on your Sunbeam Electric Pressure Cooker is blank, first, ensure the power cord is properly inserted into the appliance and the power outlet is switched on. If the screen is still blank, the unit may be in standby mode because programming wasn't completed and no button was pressed for 20 minutes. Press any button to return to the default screen.
