The oven rack, baking pan, and air fry basket are non-stick and can be washed with warm, soapy water. Do not place any parts into the dishwasher to clean.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your OUNIN Air Fryer & Toaster Oven, please refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:

• Oven not turning on: Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check your household circuit breaker.
• Food not cooking evenly: Ensure food is not overcrowded in the basket or pan. Use the recommended rack position for the selected function. The 360° hot air circulation system is designed for even cooking, but proper food placement is crucial.
• Steam function not working: Verify that the water reservoir is filled with the appropriate amount of water.
• Unusual odors during first use: This is normal and should dissipate after the initial burn-off cycle. Ensure adequate ventilation.
