Question
Solution
Can I change the
cooking function, time or
temperature once the food
is cooking?
Yes, to change the cooking function, press START/STOP
and select a new cooking function. Change the time and
temperature as required for the food. Press START/STOP
again. The time and temperature can be changed at any
time.
Cooking
Can the Cooking Pot and
Lid be used on top of the
stove or in the oven?
The Cooking Pot and Lid are not oven safe. Neither can
be used on the stove or in the oven.
I stopped the cooking
process and changed
pressure settings, and now
the Cooker is preheating
again.
If a cooking cycle is stopped and a new one is started,
the Cooker may display "HEAT" until the new pressure
is achieved. Pressurization or preheat progress can be
visually tracked on the Status Bar located under the
Display Screen.
Steam
Steam is leaking out of the
Cooker.
• It is normal for a small amount of steam to come out of
the Bobber Valve before the Cooker is pressurized.
• Steam release from the lid rim may occur during
pressurization.
• If steam is coming out from the perimeter of the Lid for
more than 60 seconds, the Lid has not been closed and
locked completely.
Pressurizing
Unit is not pressurizing.
Ensure gasket is placed properly by matching up the
gasket tabs to the slots inside the lid. Ensure one flap of
gasket is tucked under the metal loops on both sides of
the lid. See images on page 5.
Lid
I am having trouble
removing the Lid.
There is a safety feature to keep the Lid from being
removed while the Cooker is under pressure. Please
make sure to de-pressurize the unit by rotating the Steam
Release Dial into the “Release” position. Refer to
Releasing Pressure section for further instructions (pages
13-14).

NOTIFICATION CODES
Notification
Solution
“LOCK LID” blinking light
Ensure that the Lid is closed completely and in the lid handle is in the LOCKED
position, aligning with .
Display “E1”
The Cooker will stop the cooking cycle. Unplug Cooker and contact customer
service center.
Display “E2”
The Cooker will stop the cooking cycle. Unplug Cooker and contact customer
service center.
Display “E3”
If you receive this code while using one of the pressure cooking settings, then the
Lid probably did not close or seal correctly. To resolve, follow the steps below:
1. Rotate the Steam Release Dial to the “Release” position and wait for the unit
to de-pressurize.
2. Take off the Lid and look underneath to make sure the Sealing Gasket (large
rubber ring) is properly secured to the underside of the Lid. See Page 5 for
images.
3. If your recipe looks like it may need more liquid now that you have released
some of the steam after removing the Lid, then add more, stir your ingredients,
and reattach the Lid, making sure the Steam Release Dial is in the “Seal”
position.
4. Unplug the unit for at least 5 seconds, and then re-plug it in and re-program
your cook settings to begin cooking.
Display “E5”
This code appears when either the Lid or Steam Release Dial is being used
incorrectly for a non-pressure cook setting. Please note that the Lid should never
be used when using the Brown/SAUTÉ, Simmer or Boil settings. When using
the Lid during the Slow Cook or Yogurt settings, the Steam Release Dial must
be turned to the open or “Release” position. If you receive the E5 Notification
during any of these situations, then simply remove the Lid while using Brown/
SAUTÉ, Sauté, Boil, and Simmer, or correctly position Steam Release Dial to
“Release” while using SLOW COOK or Yogurt, and then unplug the unit for at
least 5 seconds, re-plug it in and re-program your cook settings to begin cooking.
Display “E6”
If you receive this code while cooking, it means that the Oster Express Pressure
Cooker was unable to generate enough steam to pressurize completely. To
resolve, follow the steps below:
1. Make sure that the Steam Release Dial is turned to the closed or “Seal”
position. If it was not in the correct position, then rotate it to the correct position
and jump to step 3 below.
2. If the Steam Release Dial was in the correct position, then turn it to the
“Release” position and wait for the unit to de-pressurize. Then remove the Lid
and look underneath it to make sure the Sealing Gasket (large rubber ring) is
properly secured to the underside of the Lid. Ensure gasket is placed properly
by matching up the gasket tabs to the slots inside the lid. See images on page
5.
3. Add another cup of liquid (water, broth, etc) to the cooking pot, stir your
ingredients, and reattach the Lid, making sure the Steam Release Dial is in the
“Seal” position.
4. Unplug the unit for at least 5 seconds, and then re-plug it in and re-program
your cook settings to begin cooking.
