How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before tipping or opening it.

Steps:

  • Surface check: Place the air fryer on a flat, solid surface. Avoid uneven or soft surfaces.
  • Feet inspection: Check that all rubber feet are present and intact. Replace missing or hardened feet.
  • Fan cleaning: Access the fan and clean off any heavy grease or food buildup from the blades that could cause imbalance.
  • Mounting screws: Tighten screws securing the fan motor, heater bracket, and internal chassis to reduce vibration.
  • Fan replacement: If vibration persists, replace the fan impeller or motor assembly.
