This is a must watch video if you have the PC quick cooker - very helpful!

Thanks so much for posting these instructions. I'm a consultant in Ames IA and got my Quick Cooker in August 2018. Although I felt I read the manual carefully, I didn't realize initially that the RED stem and the BLACK stem both came off for cleaning. I clean the lid and gasket each time I use it. The Red and Black stems are so easy to remove, I usually clean them after most uses as well.

This is a wonderful video that I will be able to post on Facebook, as well as in emails and share with customers who don't have Facebook accounts.

Thanks!

very helpful video! Thank you! -- I'm interested in getting the extra different-colored sealing rings, but I don't see them at the link you left in the description above. Are they no longer being made?

Great! I used mine for the first time -then came the cleaning part - how do I do this? There isn't anything mentioned in the manufacturer's booklets except "clean" - how to Thank you for your video -I now know what to do and how to do it!

How do you clean the steam release valve cover? I have food stuck in there. Seasonings.

What does one do when the pressure won’t release with the buttons?

[lindavandiver]

This may be a silly question, but when you say "high pressure" are we pressing the "Custom" button? then setting "Time" to 2 minutes? I've wondered about our High setting and whether there is a Low setting. Thanks for this great video; very helpful!

What does “make sure the icon is aligned with the button” mean? I see no button.

Hi, what kind of "stainless steel" cleaner did you recommend, again? Thank you for your time.

[lisabell]

My pressure indicator doesn’t come out.

So if we are using it every day, how often do you suggest we deep clean it?
