Air fryer leaks grease or liquid onto the countertop

Burn Hazard: Hot grease can cause severe burns. Allow the unit to cool before cleaning leaks.

• Step 1 – Check fill level: Ensure you are not exceeding the maximum fill line and avoid adding large amounts of liquid oil directly to the basket.
• Step 2 – Inspect basket and drawer: Remove and wash the basket and drawer. Check for cracks, warping, or damage to the nonstick surface that could allow leaks.
• Step 3 – Verify accessories: Make sure the crisper plate or drip tray is properly seated and not tilted, which can direct grease toward the front.
• Step 4 – Replace damaged parts: If the drawer or basket is cracked or warped, replace the affected component with a Frigidaire‑approved replacement.
• Step 5 – Use a liner cautiously: You may use a perforated parchment liner designed for air fryers, ensuring it does not block airflow or contact the heater.
