Below that you have two buttons labelled 'Update List' and 'Install LUT.' Clicking 'Install LUT' will launch a Finder (or Explorer, in Windows) window where you can copy in LUTs. You can also apply a LUT to monitor output or to the built-in scopes. The top area allows you to apply LUTs to all clips in your project either on input (before the grade), or on output (after the grade). This menu allows you to do a number of things. In project settings, click on the 'Lookup Tables' tab.

Now go to your project settings by clicking on the gear icon in the lower left.
