Multicooker makes loud clicking or popping noises during heating.

Safety first: Unplug the cooker before tightening any screws.

• Identify noise source: Light clicking from inside the housing at intervals is often the heater relay and is normal. Loud metallic pops from the base or pot may indicate mechanical movement.
• Tighten base screws: Remove the bottom cover and gently tighten mounting screws for the heating plate and chassis.
• Check inner pot fit: Ensure the pot sits flat and does not rock. A slightly warped pot can make popping sounds as it flexes.
• Monitor for burning smell: If noise is accompanied by smell or smoke, stop using the cooker and inspect for overheating components.

Note: Some clicking is normal; focus on new, unusually loud, or grinding noises.
