Pressure control features
Quick release switch
The quick release switch controls the steam release valve — the part that releases pressure.
What we love about it
What you should know about it
It’s
super
easy to use, and keeps our hands far
away from the steam when the multicooker is
releasing pressure!
It automatically sets to
Seal
when you close the lid,
so make sure you move it to
Vent
when you’re not
pressure cooking.
See
Releasing pressure: Venting methods
for safe depressurisation techniques.
Steam release assembly
The steam release assembly must be fully installed before use.
What we love about it
What you should know about it
When the valve’s a-venting, the steam
release cover disperses the steam, so
the quick release of pressure is soft
and gentle.
When releasing pressure, steam travels up from the inner pot, through
the steam release pipe and out from the top of the steam release valve —
so it’s important to keep the area clean and clear.
The steam release valve sits loosely on the steam release pipe.
WARNING
Do not cover or block the steam release assembly in any way to avoid injury
and/or property damage.
