6. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Air fryer does not turn on. | The appliance is not plugged in. | Ensure the power plug is securely inserted into a grounded wall outlet. |
| Food is not cooked evenly. | Too much food in the basket; food not shaken/turned. | Reduce the amount of food per batch. Shake or turn food halfway through cooking. |
| White smoke comes out of the appliance. | Fat residue from previous use; fatty ingredients. | Clean the basket thoroughly after each use. For very fatty foods, excess fat may drip and cause smoke. This is normal. |
| Food is not crispy. | Ingredients not suitable for air frying; not enough oil (if required). | Ensure ingredients are suitable for air frying. For some foods, a light coating of oil can help achieve crispiness. |
