Troubleshooting

Pressure cooker not building pressure

Ensure the gasket is correctly and evenly seated in the lid. Check for any debris on the lid rim or gasket. Inspect the gasket for damage and replace if necessary.

Steam escaping from lid seal

The gasket may be worn, cracked, or not properly fitted. Remove and reseat the gasket, or replace it with a new one if damaged.

Gasket difficult to remove/install

For removal, gently pry it out. For installation, ensure the lid rim is clean and the gasket is slightly warmed (e.g., run under warm water briefly) to make it more pliable. Do not force it; ensure it is seated correctly in the groove.
