White smoke comes
out of the
appliance.
You are preparing greasy
ingredients.
When you fry greasy ingredients in the air fryer, a
large amount of oil will leak into the pot. The oil
produces white smoke and the pot may heat up more
than usual. This does not affect the appliance or the
end result.
The pot still contains
grease residues from
previous use.
White smoke is caused by grease heating up in the
pan . make sure you clean the pan properly after
each use.

unevenly in the air
fryer.
You did not use the right
potato type.

potato sticks properly
before you fried them.
Rinse the potato sticks properly to remove starch
from the outside of the sticks.
Fresh fries are not
crispy when they
come out of the air
fryer.
The crispiness of the fries
depends on the amount
of oil and water in the
fries.
Make sure you dry the potato sticks properly before
you add the oil.
Cut the potato sticks smaller for a crispier result.
Add slightly more oil for a crispier result.
