Possible Causes

Blocked air circulation holes in basket, Warped basket or pan, Weak convection fan, Overcrowded basket

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Use oven mitts when handling hot baskets and pans.

Steps to improve cooking uniformity:

  • Do not overcrowd: Arrange food in a single layer with space between pieces to allow air circulation.
  • Clean perforations: Ensure all holes in the basket and pan are free of grease and debris. Use a brush to clear clogged openings.
  • Shake or turn food: For longer cooks, pause mid-cycle to shake or flip food for more even exposure.
  • Check fan performance: If airflow seems weak or uneven, inspect and, if necessary, replace the convection fan motor.

Note: Some variation is normal, but extreme unevenness may indicate a failing fan or heater.
