Troubleshooting
Problem
Possible cause
Solution
The air fryer
does not work
The appliance is not
plugged into the mains.
Put the mains plug in an earthed
wall socket.
You have not set the timer.
Turn the timer knob to the required
Preparation time to switch on the
appliance.
The ingredients
fried with the
air fryer are not
done.
The amount of the
ingredients in the basket is
too much.
Put smaller batches of ingredients
in the basket. Smaller batches
are fried more evenly.
The set temperature is too
low.
Turn the temperature control knob
to the required temperature setting
(see section 'Settings').
The preparation time is too
short.
Turn the timer knob to the
required preparation time
(see section 'Settings').
The ingredients
are fried unevenly
in
the air fryer.
Certain types of the
ingredients need to be
shaken halfway through the
preparation time.
Ingredients that lie on top of or
across each other (e.g. fries) need
to be shaken halfway through the
preparation time (see section
'Settings').
Fried snacks are not
crispy when they
come out of the air
fryer
You used a type of snacks
meant to be prepared in a
traditional deep fryer.
Use oven snacks or lightly brush
some oil onto the snacks for a
crispier result.
I cannot slide the
pan into the
appliance properly.
There is too much food in
the basket.
Do not fill the basket beyond the
Max amount indicated in the table
on the earlier page.
The basket is not placed in
the pan correctly.
Push the basket down into the pan
until you hear a click.
White smoke comes
out of the appliance
You are preparing greasy
ingredients.
Pay attention that the temperature
is well-controlled to be under 180
°C
,
when you fry greasy ingredients in
the air fryer.
