Salter

Condensation or water droplets form on the control panel or around the handle during cooking.

Possible Causes
Cooking high-moisture foods, poor kitchen ventilation, damaged or missing steam deflector, excessive preheating with empty basket
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Avoid letting water drip into electrical areas. Unplug before wiping moisture.
- Improve ventilation: Use the fryer in a well-ventilated area, away from cold surfaces that encourage condensation.
- Check steam deflector: Some Salter models have a plastic or metal deflector near the front. Ensure it is present and correctly fitted.
- Wipe moisture: After cooking, wipe any condensation from the control panel and handle area.
- Avoid over-preheating: Do not preheat for long periods without food, which can increase steam condensation when food is added.
