How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the cooker before inspecting vents.

  • Clean vents: Use a soft brush or vacuum to remove dust from the side and rear vents where the fan draws air.
  • Listen for fan operation: During cooking, you should hear a gentle fan noise. If it is grinding, rattling, or absent, note this for service.
  • Do not insert objects: Never push tools or sticks into the vents to try to stop or adjust the fan.

Fan replacement requires opening the housing and should be performed by a professional.
