Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Eggs are not cooked to desired doneness. | Incorrect water level or egg size. | Ensure water is added to the heating plate as instructed. The smart chip adjusts for doneness, but very large or very small eggs might require slight adjustment to your preferred setting. |
| Appliance does not turn on. | Not plugged in, power outage, or unit malfunction. | Check if the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet. Verify power supply. If the issue persists, contact customer support. |
| Indicator light keeps blinking after cooking. | This may indicate the unit is still in a standby mode or a minor sensor issue. | Unplug the unit from the power outlet for a few seconds, then plug it back in. If the blinking persists and affects functionality, contact customer support. |
| Eggs are difficult to peel. | Eggs were not cooled quickly after cooking. | Immediately transfer cooked eggs to an ice bath or run under cold water for several minutes after the cooking cycle is complete. This helps the shell separate from the egg white. |
