SAFETY FEATURES
TROUBLESHOOTING
11. LID CLOSE DETECTION
•
If the lid is missing or not closed properly, the appliance will not activate pressurized cooking. Only
the keep-warm function will work.
12. EXTREME TEMPERATURE PROTECTION
•
The appliance will automatically power off if inner pot temperature inside exceeds the limited
temperature to protect the internal parts.
CARE & CLEANING
•
Disconnect the power plug from the power supply before proceeding with cleaning.
•
Clean the outer body with a soft cloth such as a paper towel or microfiber cloth. Do not immerse the
outer body in water or splash water on it.
•
Rinse the underside of the lid with warm water, including the sealing rings, pressure limit valve, anti-
block shield, and float valve. Dry completely.
•
Clean the area under the upper ring with a damp cloth or microfiber cloth. Do not use chemical
cleansers.
•
The aluminium inner with coating is not dishwasher-safe. Hand-clean the inner pot using a soft cloth
or sponge and wipe. Be careful not to damage the inner coating.
•
To clean sealing ring, hold the knob on the sealing ring supporting cover and pull the sealing ring up.
After cleaning, attach the sealing ring supporting cover back.
NOTE:
The side with the knob should face outward. Do not put it upside down (refer to page 6,
picture 4 & 5)
•
To clean rubber grommet in the centre of the sealing ring supporting cover, carefully remove the
sealing ring supporting cover to clean it. Replace after cleaning.
•
To clean the condensation collector, remove and clean it with warm soapy water, then reinstall it.
PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSES
SOLUTION
Food stuck
1. Timer stopped working or knob jam.
2. Timer set time is too long.
3. Temperature sensor is not stable
(70ºC ± 5ºC);
4. Steam escapes (pressure switch
heating and operating continuously
without disconnecting.
5. Micro-computer sensor detects the
extreme temperature
1. Replace the timer and knob to reduce friction
between knob and control box.
2. Adjust to the timer (according to the instructions).
3. Replace the temperature sensor.
4. Detect and resolve the source of escaping steam.
5. Replace the sensor
Steam escapes from the
rim of the lid
1. Sealing rim not installed, food
residues on sealing ring, sealing ring
worn out, lid not locked properly.
2. Inner pot deformed;
3. Aluminium panel is placed wrongly.
4. Spring could not rebound to the
desired position
1. Install the sealing ring, clean the sealing ring,
replace the sealing ring, rotate lid fully.
2. Replace the inner pot;
3. Put the aluminium panel correctly;
4. Replace the spring
Rice is half-cooked
1. Cooking time is too short.
2. Extremely low pressure.
3. Insufficient water
1. Adjust timer.
2. Adjust the pressure.
3. Add more water.
The float will not rise
1. Pressure limit valve is not placed
properly.
2. Lid not placed in the locked position.
3. Steam escapes from the rim of the lid
and pressure limit valve.
1. Place pressure limit valve correctly.
2. Rotate the lid to the safety position.
3. Check the sealing ring of the lid and the float
valve.
Cannot open the lid after
steam is released
1. The float is still up (no pressure).
2. Defective push rod.
3. The pressure inside is still very high.
1. Press the float down.
2. Replace the push rod.
3. Don't open the lid until the float is down after
appliance cools down completely.
Steam escapes from the
pressure limit valve
1. Pressure limit valve damaged or
placed incorrectly.
2. Damaged valve pole or valve pole
plastic ring.
3. The valve pole is not straight
1. Replace the pressure limit valve, or put the
pressure limit valve into the "seal" position.
2. Replace the plastic ring of the valve pole or the
valve pole.
3. Adjust the valve pole.
The middle layer is loose
when cooking
1. Loose screw spring.
2. Loose screws between the middle
layer and heating plate.
1. Disassemble heating plate and tighten the screws
of the spring (re-adjust the pressure).
2. Tighten the screws.
E1
1. Sensor disconnected.
1. Insert the two terminals of sensor firmly.
E2
1. Sensor was short circuit.
1. Replace the sensor or motherboard
E3
1. Excessive temperature
1. Cut off the power to cool down and then it will
recover automatically
E4
1. Pressure switch not working properly.
2. Pressure switch cord loose.
1. Replace the pressure switch (re-adjust the
pressure).
2. Tighten pressure switch cord.
