Basket or tray not seated properly, Heavy food load on one side, Loose fan or motor mounts, Warped internal panels
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug before internal checks.
- Step 1 – Level and load: Ensure the air fryer is on a flat, stable surface. Redistribute food evenly in the basket or on racks.
- Step 2 – Seat accessories: Confirm the basket, drip tray, and racks are fully inserted and locked into their guides.
- Step 3 – Tighten mounts: Remove the cover and tighten screws securing the fan motor, heater bracket, and internal panels.
- Step 4 – Inspect fan balance: Check the fan blade for missing pieces or bends. Replace the fan blade if damaged.
