Possible Causes
Cooking high-moisture foods without adequate ventilation, Damaged door/basket seal, Blocked steam exhaust path, Cold ambient temperature causing condensation on panel
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Wipe away moisture promptly to avoid slipping or electrical issues.
Steps to reduce condensation:
- Improve ventilation: Operate the fryer in a well-ventilated area. Avoid placing it under cabinets where steam can condense.
- Check seals: Inspect the basket rim and any silicone or rubber seals for damage or gaps. Replace worn seals if available as spare parts.
- Clean exhaust: Ensure the rear/top exhaust vents are clear of grease and debris so steam can exit properly.
- Ambient conditions: In very cold rooms, some condensation on the front panel is normal. Wipe it away and avoid directing steam toward the control panel.
Warning: If moisture appears inside the display or behind the control panel, discontinue use until the unit is dry and inspect for seal failures.
