- HI – 99˚C – The equivalent of slow cooking on HIGH for faster slow cooking
- REHEAT – 100˚C – This mode is to QUICKLY reheat cooked food. Designed for short use only due to high heat
- SIMMER/BUFFET – 85˚C – This mode is for keeping food warm at an elevated temperature during serving
- WARM – 74˚C – Only for use with already cooked food, to keep it warm longer. This mode can be selected manually or will automatically commence after your set cooking time has elapsed
Other Modes:
- BROWN/SAUTE – To brown meats or sauté vegetables or other ingredients before slow cooking.
Preset browning time is 15mins but can be set from 10mins to 1hr maximum - STEAM – Using the included steaming rack, add 2.5cm of water then steam food on the rack, adjusting your time setting as required.
Preset steam time is 15mins but can be set from 10mins to 2hr maximum
Extra Notes for Slow Cooking:
You select your slow cooking time using the +/- buttons on your display
Time and temperature can both be adjusted during the cooking time using the same +/- buttons
You can begin in brown/sauté mode initially then switch over to slow cooking mode

The outside unit can be wiped over gently with a damp sponge or cloth.

I recently purchased this cooker to replace my similar Sunbeam which “died” after many years of use. I was so disappointed when I found this Sunbeam model had been discontinued…… but not for long ….. I feel that the Greenpan is far superior to the Sunbeam, has more features and I absolutely love the non stick surface, way better than any other non stick surface I have used . The steamer tray is an added bonus. 😊
This slow cooker sounds fantastic, I had a chef mate for a long time and loved it but when the new ones that came out with pressure cooking as well bought one of those gave my chef mate away then found I didn’t like slow cook with pressure cook so gave that away and tried to get another chef mate but they were a gone by era , have now got the small Russel Hobs ,but having to brown meat before you put it the cooker makes more work so will have to look into one of these but quite expensive
I love this slowcooker. I love that the bowl is so easy to clean you don’t need to stick it in the dishwasher. A quick soak and you can wipe it out. with the size of it you can cook big batches. It’s my favourite slowcooker.
