Trouble shooting
In order to ensure best results when using
the uCook Pressure Cooker, be certain to
read all of the instructions and safety tips
contained in this owner’s manual. The
following are practical tips and solutions o
some issues you may experience when
using your Pressure Cooker.
PROBLEM:
There is no steam released by the
operating valve.
REASON:
1. The pressure cooker is not properly locked.
2. There is not enough liquid in the cooker.
3. The silicone gasket is not in place, or is
dirty or worn.
4. The burner heat is not high enough.
5. The valve is dirty and/or obstructed.
SOLUTION:
1. Slide the handle lock towards you, move
the lid handle to the right. Then slide the
lid to the left until the handle lock ‘clicks’
into place.
2. Make sure there is enough liquid.
3. Make sure the rubber gasket is clean
and well positioned before using the
pressure cooker. After continued use,
the gasket will begin to wear and should
be replaced after at least once a year if
the pressure cooker is used frequently.
4. Turn up the heat till a gentle, steady stream
of steam is released from the operating
valve.
5. The valve can become dirty when cooking
foods which have a tendency to foam, such
as dried beans. Clean the valve periodically.
PROBLEM:
Pressure does not build-up.
REASON:
1. Not enough liquid.
2. The pressure cooker was not properly
closed.
3. The valve is dirty and/or obstructed.
4. The gasket is not in place, or is dirty or
worn.
SOLUTION:
1. Always use the appropriate amount of
liquid called for in the recipe. This
amount should never be less than 1/2
cup. However, never fill the pressure
cooker more than half full with liquids.
2. Following the instructions given in this
manual, close the pressure cooker so
that a tight seal is created, which will
allow for adequate pressure build-up.
3. The valve can become dirty when
cooking foods which have a tendency to
foam, such as dried beans. Clean the
valve periodically.
4. Make sure the gasket is clean and well
positioned before using the pressure
cooker. After continued use, the gasket
will begin to wear and should be
replaced after at least once a year if the
pressure cooker is used frequently.
PROBLEM:
1. A gentle, steady stream of steam is released
from the operating valve and small drops of
water condensation collect on the lid.
2. A large, continuous amount of steam is
escaping from the operating valve with or
without drops of condensation.
REASON:
1. When used properly, the operating valve
will release a gentle steady stream of
steam as well as some drops of
condensed water on the lid.
2. a) The burner heat is too high.
b) The valve is dirty
c) The safety valve is malfunctioning.
SOLUTION:
1. Normal operation.
2. a) Lower the heat so that only a gentle,
steady stream of steam is released.
b) Check the valve to see if there are
any remaining food particles.
c) The safety valve must be replaced.
