breakdowns and solutions
Breakdown
The hot air fryer does
not function.
The ingredients are not cooked.
The ingredients are
not fried evenly.
Fried snacks are not crispy when
they come out of the hot air fryer.
It is not possible to slide the
pan in the appliance properly.
There is white smoke coming
from the appliance.
Fresh fries are not fried
evenly in the hot air fryer.
French fries are not crispy when
they come out of the hot air fryer.
Possible cause
The plug is not in the socket.
The pan is not properly
placed in the appliance.
The amount of ingredients
in the basket is too much.
The set temperature is too low.
The cooking time is too short.
Certain ingredients must be shaken
halfway the cooking time.
The snacks are not suitable for a hot
air fryer, but should be fried in oil.
The basket is overfilled.
The basket is not properly
attached in the pan.
You are cooking fatty ingredients.
The pan still contains fat residues
from a previous preparation.
An unsuitable potato variety
has been used.
The fries have not been properly
rinsed prior to frying.
The crispiness of the fries
depends on the amount of oil
and water in the fries.
Solution
Insert the plug in an earthed socket.
Properly slide the pan in the appliance.
Place smaller amounts of ingredients
in the basket. Smaller portions
can be fried more evenly.
Set the hot air fryer to a higher temperature.
Set a longer time.
Ingredients lying on top of each other (such
as fries), must be shaken halfway the cooking time.
Use oven snacks or cover the snacks with
a little oil for a more crispy result.
Do not fill the basket above the maximum,
but observe the recommended amounts.
Press the basket in the pan until
you hear a click sound.
When fatty ingredients are being cooked in the hot
air fryer, it is possible that a lot of fat drips in the
pan. The fat causes white smoke and the pan can
become hotter than normal. This does not have
an effect on the appliance or on the end result.
Clean the pan after every use. Fat residues
that become hot can cause white smoke.
Use fresh potatoes that are a little
floury when cooked.
Properly rinse the cut fries to remove starch.
Make sure the fries are properly patted
dry, before the oil is added.
Cut the fries more finely for a crispier result.
Add a little more oil for a crispier result.
