The red pressure indicator button on the Pampered Chef Deluxe Multi Cooker may not drop after releasing steam and pressing the X button because there may still be remaining pressure inside the cooker. After releasing steam manually by pressing the steam release button, it is recommended to wait a few minutes to allow any residual pressure to escape. If the red button still does not drop, ensure that all pressure has been fully released by pressing the steam release button again. Additionally, check if the lid is properly aligned and that no food particles are blocking the steam release valve.
