How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug before inspecting cords or opening the unit.

  • Secure plug: Ensure the plug fits tightly in the outlet. Try a different outlet if it feels loose.
  • Inspect cord: Replace the power cord if there are any signs of damage.
  • Avoid shared circuits: Do not run the cooker on the same circuit as heavy appliances that may cause voltage drops.
  • Internal inspection (advanced): Check all internal connectors from the mains input to the PCB. Reseat any loose plugs.
  • If flickering continues, the power supply section of the main PCB may be failing and should be replaced.
