First connect the cord to the device and then plug it into the power outlet. Make sure that the power cord is properly connected to both the device and the power outlet.
Make sure that the device is installed on a flat, stable, dry and heat-resistant surface. Depending on the model, you can choose your country and language.

• The filling level of the bowl must never exceed the MAX level. • For food that may expand during cooking (rice, seeds, lentils, peas, etc.), do not fill the bowl beyond half its maximum capacity. • The bowl should always be filled with a minimum of 200 ml of liquid. • When the timer reaches 0 and the following screen appears, you will notice a release of steam at the back of the lid during the decompression phase.
! Don't put your hands near the steam exhaust! It is possible that a slight flow of steam may escape from the back of the appliance during cooking.
• The required amount of water varies depending on the recipe and cooking time. • Always use a minimum of 200 ml of liquid. • Place the steam basket in the bowl and make sure that the food does not touch the lid. • When the timer reaches 0 and the next screen appears, you can see steam coming out of the back of the lid.
! Do not put your hands near the steam exhaust! It is possible that a slight flow of steam may escape from the back of the appliance during decompression phase.
Once the cooking cycle is completed, the appliance automatically switches to "keep warm" mode. The maximum duration of this mode is 5 hours. After 5 hours, the appliance will go into standby mode.
For some recipes, a delayed start is possible: "Manual menu and ingredients". To avoid the appearance and proliferation of bacteria, it is strongly advised not to use the "delayed start" mode with foods that cannot be kept at room temperature, such as meat, fish, dairy products or eggs.
When choosing delayed start, you must set the current time and the time you want your recipe to be ready. The recipe sequence is then the same as for an immediate start. The delayed start is only available in the "manual cooking" and "ingredient cooking" modes for certain ingredients only.
This function is not active in all modes or for all preparations. It is deactivated by the device for the preparation of programmed recipes containing fragile ingredients such as milk, fish, meat or eggs (see manual). Only possible with some ingredients such as rice, cereals and vegetables up to 15 hours in advance. These are health requirements to avoid possible undesirable bacterial growth.
After each use, allow the appliance to cool, then dismantle the cover and its components (valve cover, ball cover and ball) then clean with soapy water.
Before reassembly, move the valve to ensure that it is working correctly, and check that the vent below the ball is not obstructed.
Once you have finished cooking your dish, unplug the appliance for cleaning. Clean the appliance after each use.
You can clean the cooking bowl and steam basket with hot soapy water or in the dishwasher. Clean the body of the appliance with a damp cloth. After several times in the dishwasher, the outside of the cooking bowl may become whitish. You can clean it with the scraper on your sponge.
After each use, remove the condensation collector and clean it thoroughly with clean water or in the dishwasher. Take care to dry it well. Then put it back in its original position.
To clean the metal lid by hand or in the dishwasher, you must remove it and the valve cover: 1) Unscrew the nut in the center of the metal lid. 2) Remove the metal lid. 3) Remove the valve cover.
Before reassembling the ball, check that the duct is not obstructed by blowing into it.
Press on the inner part of the spring loaded safety valve to check that it is not clogged.
Clean the gasket with a damp sponge and rinse thoroughly. Do not use sharp objects. Replace the gasket at least every 3 years. This should be done at an Authorised Service Centre.
Before reassembling the inner lid, clean the upper part of the cooking bowl with a damp cloth. Clean the inside of the metal lid of the appliance with a damp sponge and check the locking rod housing (float valve) to ensure that it is not blocked. Rinse under water and check that the locking rod can move freely.
The locking rod can be disassembled for cleaning by removing the small silicone gasket and turning the metal cover over to remove it.
• It may be that part of the lid is not positioned properly. • Apply pressure to the probe in the centre of the central nut to release the lid. • Ensure that the cover of the decompression ball is in the correct locked position.
After following the instructions in the user manual for starting the appliance, make sure that your electrical socket is working by plugging another appliance. If it still does not work, do not try to dismantle or repair the appliance yourself, instead, take it to an approved repair centre
• Check that the opening handle is in the open position before moving the lid to the closed position (open padlock). • Check that the nut of the metal lid is quite tight. • Check that the violet ball cap (located on the top of the metal lid) is in the correct locked position (closed padlock). • If you are at the end of cooking and you want to close the lid, wait until the hot vapours have dissipated before closing the lid. • Check for foreign bodies between the bowl and the heating plate. Remove the bowl and check that the heating plate, the central element and the underside of the bowl are clean. Also check that the central element can move freely. • The bowl may be deformed (after an impact, fall...). The bowl must be changed at an authorised service centre.
• Check that you are not cooking. • Unplug the product and wait until it cools completely. • Once the product is completely cool (total absence of internal pressure), insert a rod into the hole located between the opening handle and the silent valve.
• This is normal, the odour will disappear completely after a few uses. • Be sure to thoroughly clean the items listed in the instructions: cooking vessel, metal lid, before re-using your appliance.

• The quantity of water in the tank is insufficient to increase and maintain the pressure throughout the cooking. • Stop the ongoing process, open the lid and add a sufficient quantity of water. Restart the recipe or re-heat manually. • Our tip: When cooking rice and other foods susceptible to high water absorption during cooking, check the instructions on the food packaging carefully and add the minimum amount of water required for cooking under pressure (up to 200ml for maximum quantity/long cooking time).

The pot can be washed in the dishwasher as it is safe to be immersed. However, some detergent products contain elements that are more or less aggressive to metals. This grey residue is the reaction of the metal with the product.
We recommend liquid or gel detergents, which are softer.
The coating of the pot is not altered. To restore the original appearance: using a sponge and a mixture of hot water and white vinegar, clean and then rinse the pot thoroughly. Our advice: for greater satisfaction over time of your pot, we recommend manual washing with a mild detergent.
Yes, you can place 4 verrines underneath and 2 verrines on top. They can also be placed in the steam basket. Make sure you always add 25 cl of water. Be careful to place the two upper verrines towards the front in order to prevent them from overturning or hindering the lid from closing.
The grid can be placed in the bowl: • either in low position to raise your food for better air circulation. • either in high position to have 2 cooking levels, one at the bottom of the bowl, and one on the grid.
There are recipes specially written with the 2in1 grid accessory directly in the app. When searching, you can filter based on the accessory. You can also use the grid for manual cooking without any problem.
We advise you to let the grid cool before handling it, or to use potholders to take it from the bowl. If the grid is still hot, place it on a heat-resistant surface.
