One may select ‘Normal’ for regular browning/searing, ‘Less’ for simmering or thickening a sauce or ‘More’ for stir-frying or blackening meat. To change the cooking temperature, press Sauté repeatedly to select between the different settings.

Note: Do not use the Instant Pot® lid with the Sauté function, as the cooker requires sufficient venting to prevent overheating.
