“Is the pressure release valve suppose to be loose or tightly sealed? Mine was loose.”

1-5 of 5 Answers

• Mine is very loose and "wiggly" when the pot's cover IS NOT SEALED... meaning when the cover is off the pot and/or when the pot is not "pressured" once it's done it's pressure cooking the release valve seems to be "not as wiggly" when I flip to release the steam. Not sure if this helps....but when I first put the pot together, I was thinking mine was broken because the pressure release valve was so loose & wiggly.

• It's loose until it builds up enough pressure to start the cooking process. Be sure to put it on sealing before you start the pot.
