Microwave 

Cooking

Why is my food 

not cooked evenly, 

undercooked, or not 

fully defrosted?

If you used non-microwave safe materials, make sure to use microwave-

safe cookware only.

Food might not be fully defrosted; add additional time using the defrost 

function.

You may need more time or power; make sure you adjust cooking time 

and power level accordingly.

Try turning or stirring food for more even cooking.

Food might have been positioned in the center of the turntable;  

try positioning food off-center for more even cooking.

Why is my food 

overcooked?

Cooking time or power level might have been incorrect; try adjusting 

these accordingly.

Why is there arcing  

or sparking?

Make sure to use microwave-safe cookware only. Do not use AirFry 

accessories in microwave mode.

Do not operate the microwave empty. Make sure food is in the 

microwave before operating.

There might have been spilled food in the cavity; make sure  

to clean the cavity with a wet towel.

Oven/AirFry 

Cooking

Why is my food 

undercooked?

There may be too much food in the basket. Try smaller batches of food 

and single layers, rather than stacking food on top of each other.

The temperature might be too low; try adjusting to a higher temperature.

Why is my food not 

crispy or fried evenly?

Some foods may require more oil than others. If not crispy enough, 

spray, brush, or add some oil on the food.

Make sure food is spread evenly in one single layer with no overlap.  

If needed, toss or flip food halfway through cycle.

Put the food in for additional cooking time. Make sure to check periodically 

until food reaches desired brownness. Do not leave oven unattended.

Why do condensation  

and steam come  

out of my unit?

With greasy foods, oil may leak into pan, producing steam. This will not 

affect results, but may fog up the viewing window.

Foods with high moisture content can cause condensation. This will not 

affect results, but may fog up the viewing window.

The pan or basket may contain grease residue from previous use.  

Make sure to clean the accessories properly after each use.

Cleaning

Are the parts 

dishwasher safe?

Do not put the accessories in the dishwasher; instead, hand-wash  

with warm, sudsy water.

How do I clean 

tough residue from 

accessories?

To remove baked-on grease, soak the accessories in hot, sudsy water  

or use a nonabrasive cleanser.

MUTE ON/OFF

turn audible alerts on/off.
