Health And Warnings / What To Do If - ELO Praktika Plus XS Mode D'emploi

Health warning
Please note that persons who are allergic to nickel may suffer complications
through using stainless steel pots and pans.
WARNING:
The pressure cooker may only be repaired by authorized qualified personnel.
What to do if
... steam is escaping between the lid and the pot ?
This means either that the rubber gasket is defective or the pot is not properly
closed. Replace the defective rubber gasket. Close the pot correctly (see chapter
"Closing the Pressure Cooker"). If the rubber gasket is just dirty, it should be
washed.
... no steam is coming out of the pressure regulating valve ?
This means that the pot is not correctly sealed and this should be checked. If
the pressure regulating valve is dirty, the valve should be cleaned. Check also
whether there is sufficient liquid in the pot. There may be not enough pressure
in the pot. Carefully readjust the energy supply as needed. If the rubber gasket
is dirty or defective, clean or replace it. The rubber gasket will need replacing
once a year.
... too much steam is escaping from the pressure valve?
The heat source is probably turned up too high and should be turned down.
It could also mean that the pressure regulating valve is dirty.
