How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the cooker before accessing the fan. Do not insert objects into the fan while powered.

Step-by-step checks:

  • 1. Listen for fan: During operation, you should hear a soft fan noise on fan-equipped Saturn models. If silent, proceed to inspection.
  • 2. Access fan: Remove the bottom or rear cover to locate the fan.
  • 3. Clean blades: Remove dust and debris from the fan blades and surrounding area.
  • 4. Check rotation: Gently spin the fan by hand; it should rotate freely. If stiff or seized, replace the fan.
  • 5. Verify connector: Ensure the fan's connector is firmly seated on the PCB.

Note: If the fan receives power but does not run, replace the fan assembly. If no power is present, the control board may be faulty.
