-Ok, so the video shows the MK3 procedure. Don't panic, the MK4 interface is even easier to use.
+I know, this video showing the MK3 procedure is so 2022. Don't panic, the **MK4/CORE One** interface is even easier to use.
 In the main menu, just go to Filament. You can then unload the filament if necessary, or just Load filament if the printer is empty.
 The next steps are basically the same. Just follow the printer's instructions and be sure to purge one or two times.
+On CORE One: There is a first sensor on the side of the printer. That can be hard to insert filament here so don't forget to cut the tip with a sharp angle to help you.
 Easy!
