How to fix an Instant 4QT Fryer that won't turn on?
If your Instant Fryer won't turn on, there are a few things to check. First, ensure that the power cord is firmly plugged into the outlet. If it is, test the outlet by plugging another appliance into it to make sure the outlet is powered. Lastly, make sure the air fryer basket is fully inserted into the unit.
Why is black smoke coming from my Instant Fryer?
If your Instant Fryer is emitting black smoke, it could be due to several reasons. First, you might be using an oil with a low smoke point; in this case, cancel cooking, unplug the fryer, let it cool, and switch to a neutral oil with a high smoke point like Canola, Avocado, Soybean, Safflower, or Rice Bran. Another cause could be food residue on the heating coil, in the cooking chamber, or on the accessories. To resolve this, cancel cooking, unplug the fryer, let it cool, remove all accessories, and thoroughly clean the cooking chamber and all accessories. If the issue persists, it may indicate an appliance malfunction.
What to do if white smoke is coming from my Instant 4QT?
If white smoke is coming from your Instant Fryer, it could be due to a few reasons. One common cause is cooking foods with a high fat content, such as bacon, sausage, and hamburger. To address this, avoid air frying such foods. You should also check the cooking chamber for excess oil and/or fat and carefully remove it as needed before air frying. Another reason could be that water is vaporizing, producing thick steam, so pat dry moist food ingredients before air frying and avoid adding water or other liquids to the cooking chamber. Finally, seasoning on food may have blown onto the element; try spraying vegetables and meats with oil before seasoning to help the seasoning stick.
