Set up the Color workspace in Premiere Pro by selecting Window > Workspace > Color.

In the Lumetri Color panel, select the Add Lumetri Color Effect option from the fx drop-down menu to create a new effect.

When you add a new effect, Premiere Pro creates a new Lumetri Color with the name Lumetri Color.

Lumetri instances are placed in the same order as in the Effects Control panel (top to bottom). The currently selected instance is highlighted in blue and has a check mark to the left.

You can rename these effects for better organization. To rename an effect, select Rename from the fx drop-down list. To delete an effect, select the effect you want to delete (it's highlighted in blue), and select Clear from the fx drop-down list.

When no Lumetri instances are present, only the Add Lumetri Color Effect option is enabled.
