PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
SOLUTIONS
The Air Fryer does not work.
The appliance is not plugged in.
Plug it into the wall socket.
The Timer didn’t go off.
The Timer is not set correctly.
Turn the Timer Knob to desired time to
switch on the appliance.
The set temperature is too low.
Turn the Temperature Control Dial to the
desired temperature setting.
The ingredients are fried
unevenly in the Air Fryer.
Certain types of 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 frying
duration.
Fried snacks are not crispy when
they come out of the Air Fryer.
Not all snacks can be air fried. Some
snacks are made to be deep fried
and do not come out crispy when
they are air fried.
Use oven snacks or lightly brush some
oil onto the snacks for a crispier result.
I cannot slide the Basket into
the appliance properly.
The Basket is overfilled.
Do not fill the Basket beyond
the MAX indication.
The Basket is not placed
in the appliance correctly.
Push the Basket into the
appliance until you hear a click.
White steam comes
out of the Air Fryer.
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
steam and the pan may heat up more
than usual. This does not affect the
appliance or the end result.
