Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Air fryer does not turn on. | Not plugged in; power outlet malfunction; glass bowl not properly inserted. | Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet. Check if the glass bowl is fully inserted and locked into place. |
| Food is not cooked evenly. | Overcrowding the basket; insufficient shaking/flipping; incorrect temperature/time. | Do not overcrowd the basket; cook in smaller batches if necessary. Shake or flip food halfway through cooking. Adjust temperature and time as needed. |
| Food is not crispy. | Too much moisture; not enough oil (for certain foods); temperature too low. | Pat food dry before air frying. Lightly brush or spray with oil. Increase temperature slightly or extend cooking time. |
| White smoke coming from the appliance. | Grease residue from previous use; high-fat food cooking. | Clean the glass bowl and tray thoroughly after each use. For high-fat foods, drain excess fat during cooking. |
