My panel keeps coming off through cooking and making my chips all mushy. Any help?
1 answer
It shouldn't just make sure it is clicked in properly. If it still comes off it sounds like it's faulty.

I think you should keep the paddle on whatever you cooking
Chicken nuggets going alright and chopped schnitzel
Zappasked
For what recipies should I use the paddle?
3 answers
Hi, the paddle is there to turn food such as potatoes over when roasting. If you remove the paddle then the device will not rotate at all. The Actifry comes with a recipe book and guidelines for cooking some foods.
My activity did not come with a recipe book.
There's not much in the recipe book. Disappointing

Hi if your not really supposed to cook without the paddle how would you make a fried egg? model just states tefal actifry original and is black
1 answer
I havent tried this but the paddle just keeps the food moving to cook evenly, i would imagine it would cook just the same without the paddle if its just an egg you are cooking

Patriciaasked
My Tefal Actifry has worked well for nearly two years, but recently the wand in the middle broke off a large piece, I used it once more with the piece missing and the potatoes still came up well. However when washing the wand later more broke off in my hands. Does the wand have a lifetime on it, and can I but a new wand?
2 answers
Unfortunately only from tefal u can buy it but usually it shouldn't break, I gave them the name of consumer court that when they chemged it for free. Do the same and see how u go cos they cost allot.
I made a mistake buying the new wand for my Tefal Air Fryer, within a month more plastic parts started to break away leaving me with an unusable Air Fryer. I would not recommend the Tefal Airfryer to anyone, the plastics parts (of which there a lot) breaks down and bits fall off into the food.

Can i use the tyfal airfryer without its rotating part of the middle?
2 answers
Mine is. Token within days.. throw it in the bin
Yes you can. I only keep the arm in for chips, nuggets and things like that. i take the arm out for fish fingers, hash browns, party pies, sausage rolls etc because they break up. You will find that there are 'hot spots' when cooking without the arm so check and move the things around often.

I was given the Actifry Original (what is the model number?) and it gets very hot when cooking, even on the bottom of the machine. Can you please advise if this is "normal" please as I cannot put it on the bench in fear of burning it?

1 answer

Hi pharmacy2,
If the paddle has stopped rotating this may be due to the motor failing. As this is only one week out of warranty please call our Customer Service Team on 1300 307 824 who will be able to assist in having this issue sorted out for you.
Thank You
Lesleyasked
Can the Actifry Express be used without the paddle? It breaks up crumbed or frozen battered fish every time making this sort of soft food very unattractive to serve!
1 answer
Tefal A.Tefal
Hi Lesley,
Tefal do not recommend that you use the Actifry without the paddle as the stiring motion of the paddle does ensure that the food cooks evenly. However in saying this if you do decide not to use the paddle it will not damage the machine, however you will need to remember to manually turn your food to stop any burning. Tefal do have an accessory available for the Actifry called the Snacking Basket which is designed especially for soft food so the paddle does not damage it please watch the below video for more information https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNEd3QWk5CM.
This Accessory can be purchased from any Major Retailer.
We hope this helps
Thank You

Sorry but sounds like the heating element is not working. It is possible that there is an inline fuse associated with the element, in which case it might have "blown" in which case you need to get it serviced. Maybe its under warranty?
Tefal A.Tefal
Hi Sandra,
If your Tefal Actifry is no longer heating this would indicate that the heating element may have failed inside the appliance. Are you able to let us know when you purchased this Actifry, so we can assist you with a resolution ?
Thanks - Tefal Australia
