Possible Causes
Steam condensing on cool surfaces, Blocked condensation channels, Overfilled basket with high-moisture foods, Damaged rear condensation outlet (on some models)
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Keep the appliance on a heat-resistant, moisture-tolerant surface.
Steps to manage condensation:
- Check placement: Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit so steam can dissipate.
- Inspect rear outlets: On models with a condensation outlet, check that it is not blocked by grease or debris. Clean gently with a brush.
- Use drip tray: Place a heat-resistant mat or tray under the unit if minor condensation is unavoidable.
- Avoid overloading: Reduce the amount of high-moisture food cooked at once to limit steam production.
