11. Lid Locks
a) The lid lock actuator freely
moves up and down until the
unit is pressurised and then
locks the lid, preventing the lid
from being opened while under
pressure. It is located beneath
the removable metal basket
on the underside of the lid and
should be cleaned regularly.
b) This lid locking pin moves in
and out at the side of the lid. It
prevents the lid from opening
when the unit is under pressure.
c) The removable metal basket
helps to prevent debris from
getting to the pressure release
valve and lid lock actuator
causing blockage. It should be
cleaned regularly.
9. Pressure Safety Valve
10. Rubber Gasket:
The pressure safety valve
provides an additional level
of safety. In the remote case
that the pressure release valve
cannot release pressure due
to blockage, the safety valve
will activate and release the
excessive pressure.
a) The rubber gasket helps seal
the lid so that pressure can
build within the pressure cooker.
The gasket fits snugly around
the metal gasket ring located
on the underside of the lid and
should be removed regularly
for cleaning and to check for
wear.
b) To refit the rubber gasket
around the metal gasket ring,
press down on the gasket
with your thumbs whilst
simultaneously turning the lid.
NOTE: The rubber gasket has
no top or bottom and can be
fitted either way.
