How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the cooker immediately. If smoke continues, move it to a safe area away from flammable materials.
- Check for food spills: After cooling, remove the inner pot and inspect the heating plate and surrounding area for burnt food or oil. Clean thoroughly.
- Inspect underside (advanced): Remove the bottom cover and look for burnt insulation, melted plastic, or charred PCB areas. Do not continue using the cooker if such damage is found.
- Odor from new unit: A slight smell during first use can be normal as protective coatings burn off, but visible smoke or strong burning odor is not normal.
- Professional repair: Electrical burning indicates serious faults. Have the cooker inspected and repaired by a qualified technician.
