Using trivet that came with your Instant Pot®, place it into the bottom.
Gently place eggs on top of the trivet, and place lid on to Instant Pot®.
Press "pressure cook", and make sure it's on "high pressure".
Set the timer on the Instant Pot® to 5 minutes. (Make sure "keep warm" option is turned off.)
Pressure cooker will pressurize for about 5 minutes before the timer starts, then the timer will start when cooking.
While cooking, prepare an ice bath to put the eggs in when eggs are finished cooking/cooling.
After the timer runs out, let the pressure cooker naturally cool down. It will be safe to remove the lid when the stainless steel metal float, lowers back down inside of the lid. (Approx. another 5 minutes.)
Remove the lid and lift the trivet out (with tongs, or very carefully with hands/pot holder), then carefully place eggs into an ice bath for a couple of minutes.
Peel eggs and watch those shells practically fall off!

Notes
How many eggs can you hard boil in the Instant Pot at one time?We have cooked up to 18 eggs at one time in the Instant Pot. We have found that the eggs turn out just fine even if they're stacked on top of one another, just as long as the eggs are not touching the lid. (Any more than 18 and you may need more than one cup of water too.)
