If your fresh-cut French fries aren't crispy when using your West Bend Fryer, it's likely because fresh potatoes contain too much water. Cut the potatoes into narrower pieces, pat them dry to remove excess moisture before cooking, and consider spraying them with a little oil before cooking.
How to cook food evenly in West Bend AFWB12BK13 Fryer?
Unevenly cooked food in your West Bend Fryer can result from several factors. If you're cooking different foods with varying cooking times simultaneously, place foods requiring longer cook times in the air fryer first, adding those with shorter times later. Similarly, if foods need different cooking temperatures, prepare them one after the other. Also, the set cooking time may have been too short or the temperature too low, so increase these as needed. Avoid overfilling the crisping tray, and ensure food is spread in a single layer, stirring periodically while cooking.
How to stop my West Bend Fryer from burning food?
If your food is burning in the West Bend Fryer, the selected temperature or baking time is likely too high. Reduce either the temperature or cooking time to prevent burning.
What to do if my West Bend AFWB12BK13 doesn't work?
If your West Bend Fryer isn't working and the control panel displays won't turn on, there are several potential causes. First, ensure that the door is completely closed. Next, check that the cord is fully inserted into the air fryer socket. Then, verify that the outlet has power by trying another outlet, preferably one without other appliances plugged in. Finally, the overheating protection might have been triggered; unplug the appliance, allow it to cool completely, and then try again.
Why does my West Bend AFWB12BK13 Fryer keep tripping the circuit?
If your West Bend Fryer keeps tripping a circuit, it's likely that too many appliances are connected to the same circuit. To resolve this, unplug other appliances or find another outlet on a different circuit.
Why is there smoke coming from my West Bend AFWB12BK13?
If you detect an unpleasant smell or smoke during use of your West Bend Fryer, it could be due to several reasons. It might be that the air fryer is dirty, so follow the cleaning instructions to clean spills. Another reason might be that you are using the air fryer for the first time. Run at least one cycle at max temperature with no food to burn off manufacturing oils. The smell should disappear once the air fryer has been used several times. Finally, there might be too much oil or grease in the drip tray. Clean the drip tray or remove excess oil or grease.
