What to do if the lid of the Xiaomi Electric Pressure Cooker 4.8L cannot be opened after cooking?

If the lid of the Xiaomi Electric Pressure Cooker 4.8L cannot be opened after cooking, please refer to the following methods for troubleshooting:
  1. Before attempting to open the lid, make sure to press the Pressure Release button to vent and release pressure.
  2. If the pressure has been fully released but you still cannot open the lid, try pressing down on the orange float valve to ensure it is functioning properly.
Note:
  1. The steam vent poses a risk due to high temperatures. Do not touch or cover it.
  2. Open the lid only after the safety valve drops. Do not touch or open the lid when the safety valve is raised.
  3. Press the safety valve only if the lid cannot be opened when there is no pressure in the pot.
  4. It is important to clean the lid thoroughly after each use. Residual rice starch or soup can affect the float valve's ability to drop back into position, which can prevent the lid from being opened. By keeping the lid clean and maintaining the float valve, you can ensure that the pressure cooker operates smoothly and safely.
