Non-stick coating on basket is peeling or flaking.

Safety first: Do not ingest flaking coating. Discontinue use of a severely damaged basket.

• Inspect extent of damage: If small areas are worn but metal is intact, you may continue to use with parchment liners, but replacement is recommended.
• Avoid metal tools: Switch to silicone or wooden utensils to prevent further damage.
• Gentle cleaning: Clean with soft sponges only; avoid steel wool or harsh abrasives.
• Replace basket: For significant peeling or exposed metal at seams, replace the Hisense frying basket assembly.
