- Food Not Cooked Evenly: Ensure not to overfill the basket. Shake the basket or flip food halfway through the cooking process, especially for larger quantities or items like fries.
- White Smoke from Appliance: This may occur if there is excess oil or grease from food dripping into the bottom of the basket. Clean the basket and crisper tray thoroughly after each use.
