When I plug my instant pot back in, I press the first button in the second column, it's the leftmost shorter row, and hold it in for a couple seconds and it will usually connect to wifi and I'm off and running again. Sometimes I have to do it a second time, but after that everything connects up just fine.

I had to repair my device this weekend. I did hook it up to the Alexa skill and it did work. The thing is that when I unplug it and reapply get then I have to redo the whole thing over again.

>> If you don't find it fast enough it kicks you out and you have to

>> I also know that the buttons on the pot are not the same as on the

>> I tried making spaghetti and it turned out where I had no clue where 
>> to start the pot to get it going.
>> Also I couldn't get the pressure cook to start the pressure.
>> These are tips that would help me out.
>> I was told that the pressure went for 30 minutes.
>> Well if I want to use pressure for making potatoes for potato salad I 
>> sure don't want it to go 30 minutes.
>> Thanks for any help you can give me.
>> I know once I can learn how to use this I will love it.
>> I love the idea that the cord doesn't have to stay connected to the 
>> pot, I put it inside the pan.
>> Then I won't lose it.
>> I thought it was interesting that it would bake a cake.
>> I bet it would be quite moist.
>> I learned some of this from ira.
