How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Keep children away from the appliance during use. Unplug and cool before inspection.

Steps:

  • Improve ventilation: Move the air fryer to an open area with adequate clearance.
  • Check for heat shield displacement: Open the housing and inspect metal heat shields around the cavity. Reattach any that have come loose.
