Care, cleaning and storage
Clean your Duo and its parts after each use. Failure to follow these cleaning instructions
may result in catastrophic failure, which may lead to property damage and/or severe
personal injury.
Always unplug your multicooker and let it cool to room temperature before cleaning.
Never use metal scouring pads, abrasive powders or harsh chemical detergents on
any of the Instant Pot’s parts or accessories.
Let all surfaces dry thoroughly before use, and before storage.
Parts Cleaning methods and instruction
Accessories
• Steam rack
Dishwasher safe if placed on the top rack.
Lid and parts
• Condensation collector
• Anti-block shield
• Sealing ring
• Steam release handle
• Float valve
• Silicone cap
Dishwasher safe if placed on the top rack.
Remove all the parts from the lid before cleaning. See Care, cleaning and storage:
Removing and installing parts.
• Check the condensation collector after each use and empty as needed.
Do not allow food or moisture to stagnate in the condensation collector.
• With steam release handle and anti-block shield removed, clean the interior
of the steam release pipe to prevent clogging.
• To drain water from the lid after dishwashing, grasp the lid handle and hold the
lid vertically over a sink, then turn it 360°— such as turning a steering wheel.
• After cleaning, store the lid upside down on the multicooker base.
• Store sealing rings in a well-ventilated area to decrease residual odour of
flavourful meals. To eliminate odours, add 1 cup (250 mL) water and 1 cup
(250 mL) white vinegar to inner pot, and run Pressure Cook for 5–10 minutes, then
QR pressure.
Inner pot
Dishwasher safe.
• More acute hard water staining may require a vinegar-dampened sponge
and some scrubbing to remove.
• If there is tough or burned food residue at the bottom, soak in hot water
for a few hours for easy cleaning.
• Make sure all exterior surfaces are dry before placing in multicooker base.
Power cord (8L only)
Detachable power cord
(3L & 5.7L only)
Hand wash only. Do not machine wash.
• Use a barely damp cloth to wipe any particles off the cord.
Multicooker base
Hand wash only. Do not dishwash.
• Wipe the inside of the outer pot as well as the condensation rim with a
barely damp cloth. Allow them to dry completely before inserting inner pot.
• Clean multicooker base and control panel with a soft, barely damp cloth
or sponge.
Some discolouration may occur after machine washing, but this will not affect the cooker’s safety or performance.
