ingredients.
When you fry greasy ingredients in the AIR fryer,
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.

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.
