Problem

Possible cause

Solution

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.
