Why is black smoke coming from my Instant VORTEX Fryer?
- MMr. Anthony Johnson PhDJul 28, 2025
Black smoke may appear due to several reasons. It could be that the oil used has a low smoke point. Use only cooking oils with a high smoke point, such as virgin or extra virgin olive, avocado, canola, soy-bean, safflower, or rice bran oil. Another cause might be food residue on the heating coil, in the cooking chamber, or on the accessories. Remove the accessories and thoroughly clean the cooking chamber and accessories. Finally, it may be a faulty circuit or heating element, in which case you should contact Customer Care.
