Also, newer generation pressure cookers have a safety interlock which locks the lid when internal pressure exceeds atmospheric pressure, to prevent accidents from a sudden release of very hot steam, food and liquid, which would happen if the lid were to be removed when the pan is still slightly pressurised inside (however, the lid will be very hard or impossible to open when the pan is still pressurised). Safety valve - A valve that automatically, without using any form of energy than the fluid in the discharge quantity of fluid, so as to prevent a predetermined safe pressure is higher, and closed again to prevent the flow of more volatile after the normal working pressure were restored

I checked the pressure of the expansion tank and found it out of spec, and when I adjusted the pressure I noticed a foul rotten smell coming from the air inside the tank (for those not familiar, the tank is half air, half water, with a rubber wall between the two halves, allowing the air to compress and absorb the extra pressure when the water heats up).
