- To install, align the grooves on the condensation collector with the tabs on the back of the cooker base and slide the condensation collector into place.

- Plug in the power lead and switch on.
- Close and Lock the lid.

- Press Keep Warm to turn the automatic Keep Warm setting off. Move the steam release handle to the Venting position.
- When the Smart Programme is complete, the display shows End. Wait for the float valve to drop, then open and remove the lid. (Fig 3)
