the valve has to be aligned with the rib on its base on top of the lid).
• The internal areas of the Safety Pressure Valve or the Steam Valve have
particles. These two valves should be cleaned to have all residue removed
after each use.
• Lid has not been closed correctly.
• Unit has not been programmed properly.
• This is not a problem, this means unit is heating and pressurizing
• This is not a problem, this means the heating and pressurizing time was
longer than the given 14 minutes. When foods are larger or colder then
usual, the heat up time will take longer.

action is taken after 1 minute, unit goes to sleep. Pressing any of the
buttons will turn the unit back on.

1 min), The Safety Pressure Valve is not closed properly.
• The unit takes an average of 14 minutes to heat up. These 14 minutes will
be added to the chosen cook time. In addition, if any start delay is chosen,
this time will also be added to the cooking time. The final cooking time is
delay time + 14 min heat up time + chosen pressure cook time.
• There is safety feature to keep Lid from being removed while the unit is
under pressure. Please make sure to de-pressurize unit by opening the
Safety Pressure Valve to be able to remove the Lid.

the keep warm mode. The green keep warm mode indicator light shall be on
in this case.
