To implement the remote control function necessary The presence of not only the multicooker itself but also a special Bluetooth module, either included in the kit or purchased separately. Without this key component, a direct connection to the router is impossible, as most models lack a built-in Wi-Fi chip. Understanding the connection architecture is the first step to successful setup.
In this article, we'll walk you through every step of pairing, from preparing your equipment to troubleshooting common connection errors. You'll learn how to properly configure the app. Ready For Sky and ensure a stable connection between your smartphone and your kitchen appliance.
Checking compatibility and preparing equipment
Before setting up, make sure your multicooker model technically supports remote control. Not all devices from this brand have the appropriate connector or firmware. Information about technology support is usually available on the website. Smart Cooking or Ready For Sky indicated on the box or in the instructions for a specific model.
The main requirement is a Bluetooth module. Depending on the package, this could be the RMT-G10A or the newer RMT-G11A. If it's not in the box, check the multicooker body for a connector, often hidden under a decorative cover.
⚠️ Important: Make sure the module is fully charged before first use. The indicator light should be green, indicating sufficient power to complete the pairing process.
You will also need a smartphone with Android or iOS operating system and access to the app store. For stable operation geolocation must be enabled on your phone, as modern Bluetooth Low Energy protocols require location access to find devices.
☑️ Preparing for connection

Setting up a connection to a Wi-Fi router
It's important to understand the connection architecture: the module connects to the smartphone via Bluetooth, and the smartphone transmits commands via Wi-Fi. Therefore, it's critical that the phone be connected to the same network. Wi-Fi, to which you want to connect your smart home.
In the app, go to your device settings and select "Wi-Fi Settings" or "Change Network." The app will scan for available networks and prompt you to select your home hotspot. Enter your router password.
A common mistake is using 5 GHz networks. Most Polaris modules only operate in the 5 GHz range. 2.4 GHzIf your router broadcasts both networks under the same name, try temporarily separating them in the router settings or disabling 5 GHz during setup.
⚠️ Note: Hidden networks (SSID) may not be detected automatically by the module. It is recommended to make the network visible for initial setup.
Solving common connection problems
If the connection fails, the first cause is often an unstable Bluetooth signal. Ensure the distance between your phone, the module, and the multicooker is no more than a few meters during setup. Walls and metal objects can block the signal.
The second common problem is IP address conflicts or full router memory. Try rebooting the router by unplugging it for 10-15 seconds. Also, check if your router has MAC address filtering enabled, which could block new devices.
What should I do if the module is not visible in the application?
If the module doesn't appear in the list of available devices, try a hard reset. To do this, press the button on the module for 10-15 seconds until the indicator changes color. Then, repeat the search process in the app. Make sure Bluetooth and location services are enabled on your phone.
It's also worth checking your smartphone's operating system version. On older versions of Android or iOS, the app Ready For Sky may not work correctly. Updating the OS or reinstalling the app often resolves the issue of freezing during the search phase.
Scripting and Remote Control
After successful connection, you will have access to advanced functionality. You can create delayed start, select cooking programs, and monitor the temperature in real time. All these settings are accessible through the app interface.
The "My Recipe" feature lets you upload your own cooking algorithms. You can experiment with temperature and time, saving successful combinations to the device's memory. This is especially useful for complex dishes that require precise control.
Remember that the module itself must remain powered on for the remote control to work. If you remove it from the connector or if its battery runs out, the connection will be lost. Regularly check the module's battery status in the app.
Is it possible to control a multicooker without the Internet?
Local control is only possible if the phone and multicooker are on the same Wi-Fi network and connected via Bluetooth. However, most app features, including voice control and scenarios, require an active internet connection to function fully.
What is the range of the Bluetooth module?
The standard Bluetooth Low Energy range is approximately 10-15 meters in open space. In an apartment with walls and appliances, the range can be reduced to 5-8 meters. For a stable connection, the smartphone must be within line of sight or through one wall.
Do I need to update the module firmware?
Yes, manufacturers periodically release updates to improve connection stability and add new features. We recommend regularly checking the "About Device" section in the app and installing any available updates.
