Possible Causes

Overheating causing safety thermostat to open, Loose mains connection inside unit, Failing control PCB, Blocked ventilation causing thermal shutdown

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit and let it cool before inspection. Repeated overheating can damage internal components.

Steps to address random shut‑offs:

  • Ventilation check: Ensure the air fryer has adequate clearance on all sides and is not placed under low cabinets where heat accumulates. Clean dust from intake and exhaust vents.
  • Clean interior: Remove grease buildup around the heater and fan shroud which can trap heat. Use a soft brush and damp cloth.
  • Inspect safety thermostat: Access the high‑limit thermostat on the heater housing. Check for signs of overheating or loose mounting. A thermostat that cycles too early may need replacement.
  • Check internal connections: Inspect the power cord connections, terminal block, and board connectors for looseness that could cause intermittent power loss.
  • Control board replacement: If all mechanical and thermal components are sound, the control PCB may be shutting down due to internal faults and should be replaced.

Warning: Do not cover vents or operate the air fryer inside cabinets. This can cause dangerous overheating.
