If you are using the Xiaomi Smart Air Fryer 4.5L, however, it fails to connect to Wi-Fi. It can be due to improper operation methods or network issues.
For new devices that cannot connect to Wi-Fi, please follow these troubleshooting steps:
1. The Xiaomi Smart Air Fryer does not support 5GHz Wi-Fi. Check the Wi-Fi network to ensure it is 2.4GHz;
2. Verify that the SSID and password of the Wi-Fi are entered correctly. Avoid using special characters in the SSID or password. It is recommended to use English letters or numbers;
3. Ensure the Wi-Fi is not an authenticated network (e.g., hotel, mall, or campus networks). Such networks are not supported;
4. Check if the router has enabled MAC address filtering or other network restrictions like blacklists or whitelists;
5. Reset the air fryer's Wi-Fi and try connecting again. If the device remains disconnected for 30 minutes after being powered on, its Wi-Fi module will enter sleep mode and will need to be reset to reconnect;
6. Try connecting to a different network or use a mobile hotspot;
7. If the above steps fail, it is advised to request the after-sales service for further inspection.
For devices that were previously connected but cannot connect after a firmware update:
1. Verify the device is connected to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network, as 5GHz is not supported;
2. Check for correct input of the SSID and password, and ensure no special characters are used;
3. Confirm the network is not an authenticated Wi-Fi type (e.g., hotel, mall, or campus networks);
4. Investigate whether the router has enabled MAC address filtering or other connection restrictions;
5. Perform a Wi-Fi reset on the air fryer and reconnect it. If the device enters sleep mode (30 minutes after being powered on without connection), reset it again to retry;
6. Try a different network or a mobile hotspot;
7. Use the Mi Home/Xiaomi Home APP to manually add the air fryer and check if the APP can search for the air fryer;
8. If the device is detectable, the issue is likely due to the network environment. Continue troubleshooting based on the above methods. Apply for the after-sales service if the issue can’t be solved;
9. If the device cannot be detected, provide the Xiaomi Account and the time of the failed connection, and submit feedback in the APP.
