Hey Dams, my pressure cookers all came with instructions to lightly oil
the seal. I'm not 100% sure why but I think it is to prevent the seal
itself from sticking to the metal of the pot. Make sure you check that
seal though. I just run a paper towel with a little veggie oil around
the rim then make sure the seal is fine and the rocker hole isn't plugged.
