Possible Causes

RTC chip failure on control board, Firmware bug, Power supply instability to RTC, Corrupted timer settings

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the cooker before extended troubleshooting.

  • Reset settings: If your GreenPan model has a reset or clear function for programs, use it to clear custom settings and timers.
  • Power reset: Unplug the unit for 5–10 minutes, then plug back in and set the clock (if applicable) before using delay functions.
  • Test manual modes: Verify that immediate-start cooking modes work normally. If only delayed start triggers E16, the RTC circuit is likely at fault.
  • Avoid using delay: Until repaired, do not rely on delayed start. Use manual start only.
  • Board replacement: Fixing an RTC fault generally requires replacing the main control board.
