EASY SOLUTION
a. Place Pressure release valve in the correct position.
b. Place more food and water in the cooking bowl.
c. Call Breville Consumer Service.
• Check if the pressure indicator rod is in the
downward position. If it isn't, push down with aid of a
pencil or like item, jiggle the lid and disengage. This
will allow the air to escape and the lid should open.
• Make sure the silicone rubber gasket is attached
properly to the gasket holder (the arrows on the
gasket should be facing towards the lid).
• It can take from 30 seconds to 20 minutes to bring
food to pressure, depending on the food and quantity
being cooked. To speed up this time, use hot, not
cold liquid.
If problem persists:
a. Check that lid is closed properly.
b. Check that the Pressure Release Valve is in the
correct position.
c. Make sure the silicone rubber sealing gasket is in
good condition and is attached properly to the gasket
holder (the arrows on the gasket should be facing
towards the lid).
d. Inspect the Pressure Indicator Rod (see page 9, letter
"U"). The rod should move up and down freely, and
have a silicone seal on one end.
