Trivet and heatproof handles

A compatible trivet holds a pan or bowl above the cooking water. For cheesecake or other pot-in-pot recipes, look for handles you can grip securely with oven mitts.

Steamer basket

A basket makes it easier to lift vegetables out together. Choose one that fits inside your model’s inner pot without blocking the lid or the steam path.

Small springform pan

A seven-inch pan is a common choice for a six-quart cooker, but check fit before cooking. Leave room around the pan for steam to circulate and for the handles to lift out.

Spare sealing ring

An extra manufacturer-approved ring lets you keep strongly scented meals separate from sweets. Use the size specified for your model.
