REMOVING & REINSTALLING  
THE ANTI-CLOG CAP
Make sure that the anti-clog cap is in the 
correct position before using the pressure 
lid. The anti-clog cap protects the inner 
valve of the pressure lid from clogging 
and protects users from potential 
food splatters. It should be cleaned 
after every use with a cleaning brush. 
To remove, squeeze tightly and pull 
upwards. To reinstall, position it in place 
and press down. 
NOTE: While cooking, to adjust temp or 
time, use the up and down arrows. The 
unit will then resume at those settings.
NOTE: Prior to each use, make sure 
the silicone ring is well seated in the 
silicone ring rack and the anti-clog cap 
is mounted properly on the pressure 
release valve.
