Safety Information

The lid is top-rack dishwasher safe. It is best to remove the sealing ring and the anti-block shield
so that the lid may be thoroughly cleaned. One way to prevent the lid from retaining odors is to
place it upside down on the pot until it has completely dried or you are ready to use it. Verify the
steam release valve and float valve, and make sure there is no food or other debris that would
block them, and prevent your cooker from coming to pressure
Anti-block Shield
The anti-block shield underneath the lid should be removed and cleaned after each use,
especially following the preparation of foods that may splatter.
To remove, using your thumb, push the side of the anti-block shield towards the lid rim and lift
up. It may take a little effort, but the anti-block shield should pop out.
You can now wash the shield with warm, soapy water. Rinse, wipe dry with a soft cloth, and
place back in position when dry. To position the anti-block shield in place, push down.
