Is the pressure release valve (pictured below) on the lid supposed to be loose? Yes
Is the lid supposed to be loose when it's locked? Yes, it does wiggle some when it's locked.
Is it normal for steam to come out of the pressure floater (the little circle on the back of the lid)? This is normal until pressure has built up enough to force the floater valve up. If steam continues to come out after 25 minutes or so (30 if you're starting with frozen foods), check pressure release valve (pictured above) and make sure it's completely in the "Sealing" position. Unless you're cooking in "Saute" or "Slow Cooker" mode, always make sure the quick release valve is in the "sealing" position before starting the cooking process. Here's a video of the steam being released just before the float valve pops up.
