Unit trips the household circuit breaker or GFCI when starting a cook cycle.

Safety first: Do not repeatedly reset a breaker that trips immediately; this indicates a fault.

• Step 1 – Try another circuit: Plug the air fryer into a different dedicated outlet (not GFCI if possible) to rule out a weak breaker.
• Step 2 – Inspect cord: Check the power cord for cuts or crushed sections. Replace the power cord if damaged.
• Step 3 – Dry the unit: If the unit was recently washed or exposed to heavy steam, allow it to dry for 24–48 hours in a warm, dry place.
• Step 4 – Internal inspection (advanced): With the unit unplugged, inspect the heating element and wiring for contact with the metal chassis. Repair or replace any damaged insulation or components.
• Step 5 – Replace shorted parts: Replace a shorted heating element or main control PCB if evidence of arcing or burning is found.
• Stop if unsure: If you are not comfortable working with mains wiring, contact a qualified technician.
