Problem
Possible cause
Solution
The Air Fryer does not work
The appliance is not plugged in.
Put the main plug in an earthed wall socket.
You have not set the timer.
Adjust the setting to the required preparation time to switch on the appliance.
The basket holder is not properly locked.
Push the basket holder back in the Air Fryer properly.
The ingredients fried with the Air Fryer are
not done.
There is too much food in the basket.
Put smaller batches of ingredients in the basket. Smaller batches are fried more evenly.
The set temperature is too low.
Adjust the setting to the required temperature setting (see section ‘Settings’)
The cooking time is too short.
Adjust the setting to the required preparation time (see section ‘Settings’)
Fried snacks are not crispy when they
come out of the Air Fryer.
You used a type of snack meant to be
prepared in a traditional deep fryer.
Use snacks made to be prepared in the oven, or lightly brush some oil onto the snacks for a crispier
result.
I cannot slide the basket into the
appliance properly.
There is too much food in the basket.
Do not fill the basket to capacity; refer to the “Setting” table above for maximum quantities.
The basket in not placed properly in the
basket holder.
Push the basket down into the basket holder until you hear a slight click.
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 pan. The oil
produces white smoke and the pan may heat up more than usual. This does not affect the appliance
or the end result.
The pan still contains grease residues
from previous use.
White smoke is caused by grease heating up in the basket holder; make sure you clean the basket
and basket holder thoroughly after each use.
