my pressure cooker is hissing and steam is coming out from around the lid, not the valve, is that safe?

— asked by Casey

No. Steam escaping around the lid indicates a serious malfunction of the Pressure Discharging Device.

Unplug the unit from power immediately. Let it cool, remove the contents, and return the product to the manufacturer for exchange or repair. This is a safety safeguard alerting you that the Pressure Release Device is not working.
