Possible Causes

Loose internal screws or brackets, Unbalanced fan impeller, Missing or hardened rubber feet, Basket overloaded or unevenly loaded, Fan blades contacting housing intermittently

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug before tightening any internal components.

  • Level surface: Ensure the air fryer is on a flat, stable surface. Adjust or replace any missing rubber feet under the base.
  • Load distribution: Avoid overfilling the basket and spread food evenly to reduce imbalance.
  • Check housing screws: Inspect and tighten all accessible screws on the outer shell and internal brackets, especially around the fan and heater assembly.
  • Fan inspection: Access the convection fan assembly and check that the fan is centered and not wobbling. Replace a bent or unbalanced fan impeller.
  • Test run: After reassembly, run the unit empty for a short time to confirm vibration is reduced.
