How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the cooker and let it cool.
Steps:
- Check vents: Inspect side and rear ventilation grilles. Remove dust with a soft brush or vacuum. Do not insert metal objects.
- Listen after cleaning: Plug in and run a low-heat program. If grinding persists, the fan motor may be failing.
Accessing and replacing the internal fan requires opening the housing and should be done by a qualified technician.
