Check if your pod has seals. Remove both the top and bottom seals (if any). Place the pod in the Portal. -
POWER UP
Press once and release. Press again and hold until the power button outer ring is fully lit. A beep and the Portal ring pulsing amber indicate that OOKA is heating up. Wait for a few minutes. -
READY!
Solid amber and an ascending beep indicate your session is ready.
EXPERIENCE OOKA
-
ENJOYING YOUR SESSION
Inhale through the mouthpiece to enjoy the sensorial experience. Remember, do not open the Portal lid partway through your session. -

FINISHING & CLEANING
FINISHING YOUR SESSION
Press and hold the power button until its light goes out or wait for OOKA to
automatically switch off at the end of your session. When your session ends,
the Portal ring will flash red, and a descending beep can be heard. Remove the
used pod with tongs, let it cool, and dispose of it with care.
Tip: To enjoy consecutive sessions, insert a new pod and power up the device
in under a minute.
CLEANING: OOKA PORTAL
Ensure your OOKA is unplugged and fully cooled before cleaning. Disassemble the device body. Open the Portal lid and clean the Portal lid seal and its surrounding areas with an absorbent cloth or paper towel. Clean the Portal walls using a damp, non-abrasive sponge with mild soap. Insert the damp OOKA brush through the Portal to clean the inside.
CLEANING: TANK & OTHER PARTS
Remove the tank lid by pressing and holding the Tank release button and twist it counterclockwise. Proceed to wash the water tank, tank lid, down pipe, and hose in a sink using warm, mild soapy water. Do not use an abrasive scourer on any components.
CARING & TROUBLESHOOTING
What do I need to do to store my OOKA safely, or how do I prepare it for
shipping / long-distance transportation?
Before storing your OOKA, ensure that it is clean, dry and that there is no
used pod in the device. Always store the device in a dry, low-moisture
environment, out of reach of children, and avoid places that experience
temperatures above 40° C (104° F) or below 5° C (41° F). If you are storing
OOKA for long periods of time (or for shipping / travelling purposes), please
fully charge the device prior to storage, and place it in “travel mode”.
How do I put OOKA in “travel mode”?
To enter “travel mode”, disconnect your OOKA from the PSU, open the Portal
lid, then press and hold the power button. The Portal ring will turn solid
green; after approximately 15 seconds, when it starts to flash, release the
power button and close the Portal lid. OOKA will be in “travel mode” and the
power button won’t work unless you connect OOKA to the PSU and charge it to
“wake it up”.
What do I need to do to keep my OOKA operating at its optimal level?

OOKA.com
Why won’t OOKA power up after inserting a pod?
OOKA is shipped in “travel mode” to prevent it from accidentally switching on
during transit. Connect your device to the PSU and a wall socket to “wake it
up”. Try a different wall socket if it still doesn’t power up.
Alternatively, check if your battery is fully charged. If the green Led light
illuminates but OOKA doesn’t power up, charge it for 4 hours before attempting
to switch it on again.
Can I adjust the draw pressure?
Yes. Use the airflow adjuster to change it to your liking. Also, make sure
you’ve removed the seals on the pod (if applicable).
Can I turn off the device halfway through my session and continue later
with the same pod?
If you’re switching off halfway through your session, remove the pod but
remember to reinsert it to continue enjoying your remaining session. If you
insert a new pod, you will lose the remaining session on the pod you have
removed.
Why is my OOKA beeping rapidly?
When the device is hot, and if the Portal lid is open (either during, at the
end of a session or when it’s cooling down), OOKA will beep rapidly, and the
Portal ring will flash red to warn you about exposed hot surfaces.
Why did my device stop mid-session?
If your device stopped during a session and the Portal ring remained solid red
for 20 seconds followed by the battery LedS flashing, it means that your
device has overheated. For safety reasons, the device has switched off. Do not
remove the pod, let your machine cool and start again later.
What happens if I open the Portal lid during a session?
OOKA will beep rapidly, and the Portal ring will flash red for 10 seconds
before switching off. If the lid is closed within 10 seconds, your session
will resume. Do note that even if your device has switched off, you may
continue your remaining session by turning it back on.
How do I get rid of flavor residues or the burnt taste?
Always remove used pods and clean your OOKA after each use. If you’re
experiencing stale flavors, gently blow down the hose to expel it. You can
also change your OOKA seals by using the spare set included. And if needed,
you can purchase more on our website.
Why is the Portal ring flashing white?
If your OOKA is switched on and the Portal lid is open, the Portal ring will
flash white to indicate that a pod should be inserted.
Why is the Portal ring flashing red after my session?
The Portal ring will flash red to indicate that it is cooling down. OOKA will
enter sleep mode when the device is fully cooled.
Why is the Portal ring flashing red 3 times when I’m trying to begin a
session?
This indicates that no pod has been detected, the device has not been able to
detect the “recipe” chip, or a used or non-genuine pod has been inserted.
Either insert a new pod and / or make sure it is properly aligned in the
Portal so the “recipe” chip can be read by the device.
Why is the Portal ring pulsing purple and then red during pause mode?
This means that the pod cannot be paused, and your session will continue. If
the pause function is activated, the Portal ring pulses purple.
What happens if I leave OOKA on pause?
If pause mode has not been exited before the pause timer runs out, OOKA will
go into cool-down mode. The next time it starts up, it will continue the
previous session unless you removed the current pod and inserted a new one.
Should I be worried if I accidentally knocked over my OOKA?
In this case, OOKA will beep rapidly, and the Portal ring will flash red for
10 seconds before switching off. If it’s placed upright within 10 seconds, you
can continue the session. Do not continue or switch on if the device is
cracked or water has entered the device. Contact our customer care team to get
help. If the device switches off, you can resume your session as long as it is
safe to do so by switching the machine back on.
