The quantity of liquid inside the pressure cooker is sufficient.
The programme selector is not set to the steam release position.
The cooker is firmly closed.

The timer will turn itself off automatically after one hour, but you can switch it off yourself manually by pressing both the + and - buttons at the same time.
