and sputter, and clog the pressure release device (steam vent). These foods should
not be cooked in a pressure cooker.

which creates the steam does not evaporate.
15. Always check the pressure release devices for clogging before use.
16. Do not open the pressure cooker until the unit has cooled and all internal pressure
has been released. If the handles are difficult to push apart, this indicates that the
cooker is still pressurized – do not force it open. Any pressure in the cooker can be
hazardous. See ″Operating Instructions.″
