However, experts say that if you follow some tips while cooking in the cooker, you can avoid water leaking. Know what those tips are.

Check rubber: Before cooking food in the cooker, most of the people only check whether the vessel is clean or not. But, they don't care about rubber. But, due to rubber not fitting properly, water leaks from the cooker. Therefore keep the rubber tightly tight.

Keep in deep fridge: If the rubber seems a little loose then keep it in deep fridge for 15 minutes. By doing this the rubber becomes hard. Then put it in the cooker and cook the food easily. This will avoid the problem of water leaking from the cooker. Also, if rubber is used for a long time, it becomes loose. Water also leaks from this. If it is too loose, use a new one.

In vinegar water: Before cooking, keep the rubber in vinegar water for half an hour. Then put rubber on the lid of the cooker. By doing this, water leaking from the cooker can be prevented. Besides, rubber also becomes durable!
Some more tips…

The whistle as well as the inner part of the cooker should be cleaned with water.

Add some oil to the cooker before cooking. Due to this, the food items in the cooker are cooked separately without sticking to the vessel. Also water does not leak.

Also check whether the safety plugs on the cooker lid are properly installed or not. Sometimes water leaks even if the visor is loose.

Do not close the lid immediately while cooking the ingredients in the cooker. To prevent water leakage, tighten the lid after the food has been cooked for some time.

Keep the whistle of the cooker clean after cooking. Because when food is cooked, some ingredients get stuck in this whistle. Due to this the whistle will not blow at the right time. As a result, the ingredients also get overcooked.

While cooking in the cooker, always keep the gas stove on medium flame. If the stove is kept on high flame then all the pressure gets released at once. This also causes water leakage.

Apart from this, do not add too much water in the cooker. According to the ingredients present in it. Add water as it cooks. Because if there is too much water, it will leak when the whistle blows. Therefore, experts say that by adopting these tips while cooking, water will not leak from the cooker.
