AEG air fryer emits a metallic rattling noise when the fan speed changes or when the unit is moved slightly.

Safety first: Unplug and cool the unit before opening.

Steps to locate noise source:

• Shake test: Gently shake the cooled unit and listen for internal rattles.
• Open housing: Remove covers and inspect for loose screws, brackets, or panels. Tighten all accessible screws on the fan bracket, heater guard, and internal baffles.
• Remove foreign objects: Look for small screws or metal pieces that may have fallen inside and remove them.
• Secure wiring: Ensure wiring harnesses are clipped and not vibrating against metal surfaces.
• Reassemble and test: Run a short cycle to confirm the noise is resolved.
