7. Pressure Lock: The grey pressure
lock is used to lock and unlock the
pressure cooker. The Innova pressu-
re cooker has an automatic locking
mechanism, which means that by
aligning the lid handle with the pot
handle and sliding the lid handle to
the left the pressure cooker will lock
by itself (Fig. 6). For safety reasons,
the unit will not build pressure if the
pressure lock has not clicked into
place. This measure guarantees that
the cooker will never open while it's
under pressure. To unlock, slide the
pressure lock down towards you and
slide the lid handle to the right (Fig.4).

8. Gasket: In order to provide an air-
tight seal, a silicone gasket is posi-
tioned around the underside of the
lid. Never use the pressure cooker
without the silicone gasket properly
positioned. Do not use the pressure
cooker with a worn or torn gasket.
It should be replaced immediately.

9. Safety Valve: Located under the lid
handle. The safety valve is activated
in case of an excess pressure build
up (Fig. 3). The pressure cooker can-
not be opened if there is still pressure
inside the cooker.
