Frequently Asked Questions - Pot Duo Plus Instant
How do I perform a water test to check the pressure cooker?
Add 3 cups of water and 1 tablespoon of vinegar. Close the lid, set valve to 'Sealing', select 'Pressure Cook' on high for 5 minutes. Once done, press 'Cancel' and wait for natural pressure release. This ensures the unit seals correctly.
What does the 'Burn' message mean on my Instant Pot Duo Plus?
The Burn message indicates the inner pot is too hot or food is stuck to the bottom. Unplug, release pressure, and clean the pot. Use more liquid next time and deglaze after sautéing.
Can I use the slow cook function without the lid?
No, the Instant Pot is designed to be used with the lid closed for slow cooking. However, you can use the Sauté function with the lid off to brown ingredients.
How do I replace the sealing ring?
Remove the old sealing ring from the lid's inner rim by pulling it out. Stretch the new ring over the rim and press it into the groove. Ensure it sits evenly. It's recommended to replace every 12-18 months.
What is the maximum liquid level for pressure cooking?
Do not fill the inner pot more than 2/3 full. For foods that foam or expand (like rice or beans), fill no more than 1/2 full. The minimum liquid is typically 1 cup.
How do I clean the steam release valve?
Remove the valve by pulling it straight up. Wash with warm soapy water and use a small brush to dislodge any debris. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Reattach by pressing down until it clicks.
Can I cook frozen meat in the Instant Pot?
Yes, but allow extra time. Use a minimum of 1 cup liquid. For frozen chicken breasts, pressure cook on high for 10-12 minutes. Natural pressure release for 5 minutes, then quick release.
Why is steam escaping from the lid during cooking?
If the steam release valve is not set to Sealing, steam will escape. Also check the sealing ring is properly seated. If water or food is on the rim, wipe clean.
What accessories come with the Instant Pot Duo Plus?
Includes stainless steel inner pot, steam rack with handles, measuring cup, rice paddle, soup spoon, and condensation collector.
How do I reset the Instant Pot to factory settings?
To reset, press and hold the Adjust button for about 5 seconds until the screen displays 'OFF'. Then unplug the unit for 10 seconds. Plug back in and it will be reset.
