    1. Rotate the lid clockwise, if the lid moves, it means that there is no air pressure in the pot, and the main reason why the pot cannot be opened is that there is no return to the position. The solution is to find a hard object, such as chopsticks, and press the check valve.

    Push the check valve back into place to open the lid.

    2. If you rotate the lid clockwise and do not move, it may be that there is still air pressure in the pot and must be cooled and relieved. The methods of pressure relief are generally natural cooling, wind blowing cooling and lifting pressure felling. If you are not in a hurry to boil, it is best to use natural cooling to relieve pressure.

    3. If you have made sure that the pot has been fully cooled and there is no air pressure, you can try to find the (on-off) position on the lid with one hand, grasp the other side with one hand, and slowly open it in the direction of opening, and it will not damage the pressure cooker.

    4. If you still can't open after trying various methods, you can contact the manufacturer or after-sales service provider to deal with it. Do not pry hard, it will damage the pot and may also cause injury to yourself.

    1. The lid is not tightly buckled, after the lid is fastened, rotate the lid handle clockwise to buckle the lid well.

    2. The deformation of the pressure cooker will also cause the pressure cooker to leak, which needs to be repaired by maintenance personnel.

    3. If there is a foreign body sticking to the sealing ring, the foreign body can be removed.

    4. It may be that the sealing ring on the pressure cooker lid is deformed, and the sealing ring can be replaced.

    5. The float valve sealing gasket is not tight, and the float valve sealing ring can be replaced.

    6. If the pressure limiting valve or exhaust pipe is damaged, replace the pressure limiting valve or exhaust pipe.

    There are four conditions in which the lid of the pressure cooker cannot be covered:

    1. It may be reversed, solution: place it correctly.

    2. It may not be flattened, solution: re-flatten, and then close.

    3. It may be reversed, turning in a counterclockwise direction.

    4. It may be that the safety column has not fallen, and the solution: gently press the safety column down with chopsticks, take out the chopsticks, and then operate according to the above method.

    Pressure cooker: also known as pressure cooker, pressure cooker, is a kind of kitchen pot. The pressure cooker elevates this physical phenomenon by the boiling point of the liquid at higher air pressure, exerting pressure on the water so that the water can reach a higher temperature without boiling, thus speeding up the efficiency of cooking food.

    It can be used to heat cooked food to more than 100 degrees, and at high altitudes, the pressure cooker can avoid the problem of low boiling point of water and difficult to cook food.

    Its advantage is to save time and energy, and the disadvantage is that when it is operated incorrectly or there are defects, it may cause injury.

    Consider a blocked vent.

    Unscrew the screws of the exhaust hole of the inner cover, dredge it with a toothpick to ensure that the exhaust is unobstructed, pay attention, the installation screws are not too tight, and pour a little back slightly after tightening. Mine was fixed like this.

    The lid of the pressure cooker can be turned when there is no pressure, and it will not turn when there is pressure, and it will be closed clockwise until the upper and lower handles coincide.

    The pressure cooker lid won't close, what's going on?

    There are four situations in which the lid of the pressure cooker cannot be covered: 1. It is reversed, and the solution: place it correctly.

    2. It is not flattened, solution: re-flatten, and then close. 3. It is reversed, and it is rotated in a counterclockwise direction.

It can be used to heat steamed food to more than 100 meters, and at high altitudes, the pressure cooker can be used to avoid the problem that the boiling point of water is lowered and it is difficult to cook food.

    The reasons why the lid of the pressure cooker cannot be covered are: the rubber ring is not installed in place, the lid is closed in the wrong position, and the inner tank is faulty.

    1. The rubber ring is not installed in place.

    Attach the rubber ring completely to the steel ring so that the rubber ring is parallel to the steel ring.

    2. Close the cover in the wrong position.

    Check whether the lid is reversed (if the direction of the panel is the front, and the weight is in the front, it means that the lid is reversed, and the lid is closed abnormally); After confirming that the lid is not reversed, open and close the lid normally according to the position of the opening and closing lid on the pot body.

    3. Liner failure.

    If the mouth of the inner tank is deformed (oval), repair it before use.

    How the pressure cooker works:

    The principle of a pressure cooker is simple because the boiling point of water is affected by the air pressure, and the higher the air pressure, the higher the boiling point. In the mountains and plateaus, the air pressure is less than 1 atmosphere, and the water can boil less than 100 meters, and eggs cannot be cooked in ordinary pots. When the air pressure is greater than 1 atmosphere, water does not boil until it is above 100.

    The pressure cooker that people commonly use is designed using this principle. The pressure cooker seals the water quite tightly, and the water vapor produced by the evaporation of the water cannot be diffused into the air, but can only be retained in the pressure cooker, so that the air pressure inside the pressure cooker is higher than 1 atmosphere, and the water is boiled when it is higher than 100, so that the pressure cooker forms a high-temperature and high-pressure environment inside, and the rice is easy to cook quickly, and it is quite crispy.

    Of course, the pressure in the pressure cooker will not be unlimited, or it will be.

    1. Open.

    1. General Method:

    1) Hold the lid of the pot with your right hand.

    2) Hold one of the ears on the pot with your left hand, do not let the pot rotate, and rotate it clockwise horizontally with your right hand.

    3) When turning to the position in Figure 4, lift the lid with your right hand.

    2. What should I do if I can't open it?

    1) If you can't rotate:

    1. There is pressure in the pot (the safety column is jacked up). Workaround:

    a. Natural cooling. It is easy to open when the pressure inside and outside the pot is equal.

    b. Manual exhaust.

    a. Turn the exhaust valve switch on the lid of the pot, and it can be opened after exhausting.

    b. Use chopsticks to gently press down the safety column (remember to click), remove the chopsticks, and wait until the safety column falls naturally, and then open it. Keep your hands away from the lid and beware of the steam. This method is not recommended and can only be used when it is confirmed that the pressure inside and outside the pot is equal.

    2. There is no pressure in the pot (the safety column does not fall). The solution is:

    Use chopsticks to gently press down on the safety post (remember to click), and then press the method of one, (1, (2, (3).

    2) Able to turn the lid:

    1. It may not be transferred in place. The solution is to turn into place.

    2. There may be negative pressure in the pot. The solution is to open the manual exhaust valve.

    2. Close the lid. 1. General Method:

    1) Be sure to put the lid down at the position of Figure 4.

    2) Feel the cover, and then turn it clockwise.

    2. What should I do if I can't close it? (The lid does not turn).

    1. It may be reversed, and the solution is: correct placement.

    2. It may not be flattened, and the solution is: re-flattening and then closing.

    3. It may be reversed, turning in a counterclockwise direction.

    3. Air leakage. 1. Leakage from the safety column. The safety column has not fallen, you can use chopsticks to gently press down, and then take out the chopsticks, if it is still leaking, there may be foreign bodies, clean it.

    2. Air leakage from the manual exhaust valve. It may not be closed, it may be closed and there is air leakage, there may be foreign matter, please clean it when you open it, and then close it.

    3. Leak air from the lid and the body of the pot. There may be foreign bodies, remove the cover and clean it, if there is still air leakage, it may be that the sealing ring is reversed, and it can be reinstalled, if there is still air leakage, it may be that the sealing ring is aged or broken, and it can be replaced with a new one.

    If there is still an air leak through the above methods, please send it for repair.
