Possible Causes

Basket not detected by microswitch, Overtemperature lockout, Internal fault on control PCB, Door latch not engaging sensor

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before inspecting mechanical parts.

  • Reinsert basket: Remove and firmly reinsert the basket and drawer. Ensure there is no food or foil obstructing full closure.
  • Cool down: If the unit was used heavily, allow it to cool for 20–30 minutes, then try again. Some models lock out operation when overheated.
  • Check latch and switch: Inspect the drawer latch and the internal microswitch actuator. Replace any broken plastic tabs and test the switch for proper operation.
  • Control board issue: If beeping persists with a correctly seated basket and normal temperature, the control PCB may be detecting an internal fault and should be evaluated by a technician.
