Pressure control features
Float valve
The float valve is a visual indication of whether there is pressure in the multicooker
(pressurised) or not (depressurised). It appears in two positions:
Pressurised
The float valve has visibly popped
up and is flush with the lid.
Depressurised
The float valve has
dropped down into the lid.
The float valve and silicone cap work together to seal in pressurised steam. These parts
must be installed before use. Do not attempt to operate the Instant Pot without the float
valve properly installed.
Do not touch the float valve during use
.
DANGER
DO NOT attempt to remove the lid while the float valve is up and NEVER
attempt to force the lid open. Contents are under extreme pressure. Float
valve must be down before attempting to remove the lid. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in serious personal injury and/or property damage.
Anti-block shield
The anti-block shield prevents food particles
from coming up through the steam release
pipe, assisting with pressure regulation.
The anti-block shield is integral to product
safety and necessary for pressure cooking.
