My iCook® lid is stuck to the pan, what should I do?

If the lid is stuck to the pan, it is probably because the contents of the pan or the pan itself have cooled creating a partial vacuum. Do not try to pry the lid from the pan. Place the pan on the burner and heat on low checking every few seconds. Heating the pan will cause the air in the pan to expand allowing the lid to free itself from the pan.

If the lid is stuck because there is food trapped between the pan and the lid, pour a small amount of water in the set down and heat on low. Check every few seconds to see when the lid has loosened.
