Multicooker trips the household circuit breaker or GFCI outlet when starting a cooking program.

Safety first: Unplug immediately if the breaker trips. Do not repeatedly reset a breaker without finding the cause.

• Dry the unit: If the cooker recently overflowed or was washed aggressively, allow it to dry for 24–48 hours in a warm, dry place before retesting.
• Inspect wiring: Remove the bottom cover and look for any wires with damaged insulation touching the metal frame. Repair or replace as needed.
• Check heating plate: Look for cracks, burn marks, or melted insulation around the heating plate terminals.
• Smell test: If you smell burnt electronics, the control board may have a shorted component and should be replaced.
• Do not bypass ground: Never remove the ground pin from the plug or defeat safety grounding to stop tripping; this is dangerous.
• Professional evaluation: Because this involves potential shock hazards, consider having a qualified technician perform insulation resistance tests and repairs.
