Problem Possible cause Solution
The airfryer
does not work.
The appliance is
not plugged in.
Put the mains plug in an earthed
wall socket.
You have not set
the timer.
Turn the timer knob to the required
preparation time to switch on the
appliance.
The ingredients
fried with
the airfryer are
not done.
The amount of
ingredients in
the basket is too big.
Put smaller batches of ingredients
in the basket. Smaller batches are
fried more evenly.
The set
temperature is too
low.
Turn the temperature control
knob to the required temperature
setting (see section ‘Settings’ in
chapter ‘Using the appliance’).
The preparation
time is too short.
Turn the timer knob to the required
preparation time (see section ‘Settings’
in chapter ‘Using the appliance’).
The ingredients
are fried
unevenly in the
airfryer.
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 airfryer.
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
basket.
Do not fill the basket beyond the
MAX indication.
The basket is not
placed in the pan
correctly.
Push the basket down into the
pan until you hear a click.
The handle of
the baking tray
is obstructing the
pan.
Push the handle to a horizontal
position, so it does not stick out
on top of the basket.
White
smoke comes
out of the
appliance.
You are preparing
greasy ingredients.
When you fry greasy ingredients in
the airfryer, a large amount of oil will
leak into the pan. The oil produces
white smoke and the pan may heat
up more than usual. This does not
affect the appliance or the end result.
The pan still
contains grease
residues from
previous use.
White smoke is caused by
grease heating up in the pan.
Make sure you clean the pan
properly after each use.
Fresh fries are
fried unevenly
in the airfryer.
You did not soak
the potato sticks
properly before
you fried them.
Soak the potato sticks in a bowl
for at least 30 minutes, take them
out and dry them with kitchen
paper.
You did not use
the right potato
type.
Use fresh potatoes and make sure
they stay firm during frying.
Fresh fries
are not crispy
when they
come out of
the airfryer.
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.
Cut the potato sticks smaller for
a crispier result.
Add slightly more oil for a crispier
result.
