AEG air fryer leaks grease or liquid from the bottom onto the countertop during or after cooking.

Safety first: Allow the unit to cool before handling hot grease. Unplug before removing the drawer for inspection.

Steps to address leaks:

• Check fill level: Ensure you are not exceeding the maximum fill line. Excess fat can pool and overflow.
• Inspect basket and drawer: Remove the basket and drawer. Fill with a small amount of water and check for drips from seams or corners. Look for cracks or warping.
• Examine gasket: Some AEG models use a silicone gasket or seal around the drawer edge. Inspect for cuts, hardening, or missing sections. Replace the drawer gasket if damaged.
• Replace damaged parts: If the basket or drawer is cracked or badly warped, replace the basket and drawer assembly with OEM parts.
• Clean regularly: Built-up grease can wick out of joints. Thoroughly clean the basket, drawer, and undertray after each use.
