Get started
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 Plus
prepares you for success in the kitchen!
Stage 1: Setting up the Duo Plus for
pressure cooking
01 Remove the inner pot from the multi-
cooker base. Add 750 mL of water to the
inner pot, then insert it back into the multi-
cooker base.
02 3L & 5.7L only: Secure the power cord
to the base power socket on the back
of the multi-cooker base. Make sure
the connection is tight.
All sizes: Connect the power cord to a
220-240V power source.
The display shows OFF.
03 Place and close the lid as described
in Pressure control features: Multi-
cooker lid.
Stage 2: "Cooking" (...but not really, this
is just a test!)
01 Select Pressure Cook.
02 Use the - / + Time buttons to adjust
the cooking time to 5 minutes (00:05).
Adjustments are saved when a Smart
Programme 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 Press Start to begin. The display
shows On.
While the multi-cooker does its thing,
read Pressure cooking 101 on
the next page to find out how
the magic happens.
05 When the Smart Programme finishes,
the display shows End.
Stage 3: Releasing pressure
01 Follow instructions for a Quick Release in
Releasing pressure: Venting methods.
02 Wait for the float valve to drop,
then carefully open and remove the
lid as described in Pressure control
features: Multi-cooker lid.
03 Using proper hand protection, remove
the inner pot from the multi-cooker
base, discard the water and thoroughly
dry the inner pot.
CAUTION
Pressurised 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.
