Troubleshooting

mains plug in an earthed wall socket.
Don’t set timer.| Set the timer key to the required preparation time to switch on the appliance.
The ingredients fried with the air fryer are not done| The amount of ingredients in the shelf is too big.| Put smaller batches of ingredients in the shelf. Smaller batches are fried more evenly.
The set temperature is too low.| Set the temperature key to the required temperature setting (see section ‘settings’ in chapter ‘Using the appliance’).
The preparation time is too short.| Set the timer to the required preparation time (see section ‘Settings’ in chapter’ Using the appliance’).
The ingredients are fried unevenly in the air fryer.| Certain types of ingredients need to be shaken halfway through the preparation time.| Ingredients that lie on top of or across each other (e.g. fries) need to be shaken halfway through the preparation time. See section ‘Settings’ in chapter ‘Using the appliance’.
Fried snacks are not crispy when they come out of the air fryer| You used a type of snacks meant to be prepared in a traditional deep fryer.| Use oven snacks or lightly brush some oil onto the snacks for a crispier result.
I cannot slide the pan into the appliance properly.| There are too much ingredients in the pot.| Do not fill the pot beyond the MAX indication.
The pot is not placed correctly.| Push the pot again in the correct
direction.

Fresh fries are fried unevenly in the air fryer.| You did not use the right potato type.| Use fresh potatoes and make sure they stay firm during frying.
You did not rinse the potato sticks properly before you fried them.| Rinse the potato sticks properly to remove starch from the outside of the sticks.
Fresh fries are not crispy when they come out of the air fryer.| The crispiness of the fries depends on the amount of oil and water in the fries.| Make sure you dry the potato sticks properly before you add the oil.
