Frequently Asked Questions
Can I put an air fryer on a wooden kitchen countertop?
Yes, but you should place a thick silicone mat or heavy wooden trivet underneath it to protect the countertop sealant from sustained heat transfer.
Why does my air fryer release white smoke while cooking?
White smoke usually occurs when excess fat or grease at the bottom of the pan burns against high thermal output. Adding a tablespoon of water to the drawer can help prevent grease from smoking.
Is it safe to use extension cords with high-wattage air fryers?
No. Most standard extension cords cannot handle the continuous 1500 to 1800 watt draw of an air fryer, which can cause the cord to overheat and melt.
