Pressure control features
Quick release button
The quick release button controls the steam release valve — the part controls whether
pressure is released or not.
What we love about it
It's really easy to use, and keeps our hands
far away from the steam!
See Releasing pressure: Venting methods for safe depressurization techniques.
Steam release valve
The steam release valve sits loosely on
the steam release pipe. When the cooker
releases pressure, steam ejects from the
top of the steam release valve.
The steam release valve is integral
to product safety and necessary for
pressure cooking.
Do not cover or block the steam release valve in any way.
Toggle steam release
The lid says Turn to Seal, but it's more
like a flicking motion. Don't turn the quick
release button more than ¼" (or 45°), and
let it spring back to its original position.
