Frequently Asked Questions - GMC6SBK GORENJE

How to open the lid after cooking?

Make sure the pressure has fully dropped: the float valve must be lowered. Turn the lid counterclockwise to the open position, then lift it. Never force the lid open if pressure is still present.

Steam is escaping from the lid, what to do?

Check that the sealing ring is properly installed and clean. If the ring is damaged, replace it. Also make sure the lid is properly closed and locked.

The float valve does not rise during cooking, why?

This may be due to insufficient food or water in the pot. Add enough liquid according to the recipe. Also check that the exhaust valve is in the closed position.

How to clean the pressure cooker?

Unplug and let it cool. Remove the inner pot and wash it with mild soap. Clean the lid, seal, exhaust valve and float valve with a brush and cloth. Do not immerse the appliance body.

Why is the rice overcooked or too hard?

For overcooked rice, reduce the amount of water. For too hard rice, increase water. After cooking, leave the lid closed for an additional 5 minutes before opening.

Can I use the delayed start function for all cooking?

No, the Sauté and Keep warm functions are not compatible with delayed start. For other programs, press 'Delay' before starting.

The power indicator does not light up, what to do?

Check the electrical outlet and power cord. Make sure the lid is properly closed (buttons are inactive if lid is not locked). If the problem persists, contact an authorized distributor.

How to release steam quickly?

Turn the exhaust valve to the 'exhaust' position (or press the steam release button if present). Never place your hands or face over the vent. Beware of burns.

Can I open the lid immediately after cooking soup?

No, for liquid foods (porridge, soup), do not release steam manually. Let the appliance cool naturally until the float valve drops, then open.

Where can I find spare parts?

Use only genuine Gorenje parts (sealing ring, anti-blockage cover, etc.). Contact an authorized distributor or Gorenje after-sales service. Any repair must be carried out by a professional.
