Initial set up (It won't bite!)
You — yes, you — can do this!
“Once you have mastered a technique, you barely have to look at a recipe again!”
– Julia Child
01 Pull that Duo Viva out of the box!
02 Remove the packaging material and accessories from in and around the multicooker.
Make sure to check under the inner pot!
03 Wash the inner pot in a dishwasher or with hot water and dish soap. Rinse it well with
warm, clear water and use a soft cloth to thoroughly dry the outside of the inner pot.
04 Wipe the heating element with a soft, dry cloth to make sure there are no stray
packaging particles left in the multicooker base.
Don’t remove the safety warning stickers from the lid or the rating label from the back
of the multicooker base.
05 You may be tempted to put the Instant Pot on your stovetop — but don’t do it!
Place the multicooker base on a stable, level surface, away from combustible material
and external heat sources.

Initial test run (water test)
Do you have to do the water test? No — but getting to know the ins and outs of your Duo Viva
prepares you for success in the kitchen! Take a few minutes to get to know how this baby works.
Stage 1: Setting up the Duo Viva for
pressure cooking
01 Remove the inner pot from the multicooker
base and add 3 cups (750 mL / ~25 oz)
of water to the inner pot. Insert it back
into the multicooker base.
02 Secure the power cord to the base
power socket on the back of the
cooker base. Make sure the connection
is tight.
Connect the power cord to a 120 V
power source.
The display shows OFF.
03 Place and close the lid as described
in Pressure control features: Pressure
cooking lid.
Stage 2: "Cooking" (...but not really, this is
just a test!)
01 Select Pressure Cook.
02 Use the − / + buttons to adjust the
cooking time to 5 minutes (00:05).
Adjustments are saved when a Smart
Program starts, so the next time you
use Pressure Cook, it will default to
5 minutes.
03 Press Keep Warm to turn the
automatic Keep Warm setting off.
04 The multicooker beeps after
10 seconds and the display shows On.
While the multicooker does its thing,
read Pressure cooking 101 on
the next page to nd out how
the magic happens.
05 When the Smart Program nishes,
the display shows End.
Stage 3: Releasing pressure
01 Follow instructions for a Quick Release in
Releasing pressure: Venting methods.
02 Wait for the oat valve to drop,
then carefully open and remove the
lid as described in Pressure control
features: Pressure cooking lid.
03 Using proper hand protection, remove
the inner pot from the multicooker
base, discard the water and thoroughly
dry the inner pot.
That's it! You're good to go :)
CAUTION
Pressurized steam releases through the top of the steam release valve. Keep
exposed skin away from the steam release valve to avoid injury.
CAUTION
The inner pot will be hot after cooking. Always use appropriate heat protection when
handling a hot inner pot to avoid injury.
DANGER
DO NOT attempt to remove the lid while the oat valve is up and NEVER
attempt to force the lid open. Contents are under extreme pressure. Float
valve must be down before attempting to remove the lid. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in serious personal injury and/or property damage.
