Before pairing your device, the country and language must be set.

You can restart the operation by going to the "My Account" menu, then select "Identify my device" and follow the instructions on the screen.
Note: Bluetooth® must be enabled on your tablet or smartphone to complete pairing.

For Android smartphones or tablets, it is necessary to have the latest version of the system installed.
To check your version, go to: "Settings" > "About" > "System Update".

To pair your device with Android:
• Get closer to your device.

• When a message appears on the screen of your device, validate the connection request by pressing OK.
Depending on the model of your Android smartphone or tablet, 3 types of messages are possible:
- Auto-match: there is no need for validation, your device will connect automatically.
- The message "Bluetooth connection request" will appear on your screen: simply click on "CONNECT", there is no need to enter a passcode.
- A notification appear at the top of your screen: drag the screen down then click on the notification to display the message "Bluetooth connection request". Then click on "CONNECT", there is no need to enter a passcode.

• Press the OK button on your device again.

• A final message confirms that the connection is successful: your device is now connected!

• Check that your tablet or smartphone is compatible (see compatibility FAQ).
• Check that Bluetooth® is enabled on your tablet or smartphone.
• Check that your device has the "connect" feature and ensure it is activated, as follows:
1. Go to the "Settings" menu
2. Select the "Connect" menu
NB: if you do not see a "Connect" menu, this means that your device is not equipped with the "Connect" option and it therefore cannot be connected to a tablet or smartphone.
3. Select "ON"
If you have already paired your tablet or smartphone to your device, the connection will be made automatically.
If not, please refer to the FAQ "How do I pair my app to the device?".

The blue light means that your device is a "Connect" model that can be connected to a tablet or a smartphone via the app.

• The light is flashing: the device is not connected to a tablet or smartphone.
• The light is not flashing: the device is connected to a tablet or smartphone.
• The light is off: the product's "connect" feature is disabled.

Another smartphone or tablet is already connected to the Cookeo. In this case, you need to disconnect it by closing the application or pressing "connected" in the top right corner of the application.
Once the Cookeo's blue light starts flashing, you will be able to connect your device.

An Internet connection is required only to download and update the application, and sign in to my account.
An Internet connection is not needed to use the connected feature of your product. There is no need to move your product closer to the access point (Internet router).

This means that the product's "connect" feature is deactivated.
To reactivate it:
1. Go to the "settings" menu
2. Select the "Connect" menu
3. Select "ON"

If the connection between your appliance and smartphone/tablet is lost during a recipe, the two devices will be automatically synchronized as soon as the connection is re-established.
You will be able to resume your recipe at the step you were on when the connection was lost.

Bluetooth® must be enabled to synchronize the application with the device and throughout the recipe (if you are following it from your phone).

If you wish, you can pair multiple devices as long as you only use one account on your app.
To do so, pair each device independently. However, only one device can be connected at a time.

Place your appliance on a flat, stable surface.
For the best connection between your appliance and smartphone/tablet, we recommend performing all operations requiring a connection at a sensible distance.
If the connection is lost (connection symbol crossed out), move your device closer until the connection is re-established.
If the connection indicator is lit (app or product), your devices are connected.

To download a recipe, you just need to launch the step-by-step process of this one while being connected to your device.

A "Recipe download in progress" notification should appear and the download of the recipe from the device will begin.

Once the download is complete, the step-by-step will start in synchronization with your device.

Recipes shared by users cannot be uploaded to your appliance.
However, they can be made in manual mode by following the step-by-step instructions from the app.

However, a selection of the most popular recipes from the community are converted by the brand to make them transferable/downloadable to your appliance.
Feel free to rate/comment on your favorite recipes in order to give them a better chance of becoming connected!

On some recipes, a small book and a pack name are present. This means that the recipe you have selected is part of a pack.

To download this pack, simply select the pack name.


Click on "Download the pack" at the bottom of the screen.

When you turn on your appliance, the blue light flashes (waiting for connection) unless you have manually disabled the connect function.

Your appliance can be used without the app. However, only the app will enable you to benefit from the many advantages available when your product is connected.

Depending on the model, you can choose your country and language.

Check that the condensation collector is empty and install it on the back of the appliance.

To open the lid, press the lid lightly and turn counterclockwise.

Wipe the bottom of the cooking bowl.
Make sure there is no food or liquid residue under the bowl or on the heating plate.

Then install the bowl into the appliance.

Never use the appliance without the cooking bowl.

• 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 amount of ingredients should never exceed the MAX level. When you are cooking conventionally, the lid must always be open.

You monitor the cooking time. Let the ingredients cook until you are satisfied with the result. Then click OK to stop cooking.

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.
