Instant pot specifications say 2 cups liquid in pot minimum.*1 *2
Onion and carrots (and many other veg) count as water. *3
*1. I believe @blue_dolphin said that the actual required amount was slightly over 1 cup, but I don't remember exactly.
*2. No idea what are the specifications for your pot's manufacturer; is there somewhere to find out? If you send me a PM of the manufacturer and model of your "Instant Pot" I will attempt to find out for you.
*3. Put the onion and the carrots into big measuring device and fill with water to some measurement. Pour out the water and measure it. The difference between the two water measurements is the value of water in onion and carrots.
So you can safely cut down the amount of water you're using!
