Possible Causes

Warped or damaged drawer pan, Cracked fry basket or pan, Overfilled basket causing overflow, Missing or damaged silicone seals (on some models)

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Allow the unit to cool before handling hot grease. Use oven mitts when removing the drawer.

User checks:

  • Inspect pan and basket: Remove and examine for cracks, warping, or holes, especially at corners and seams.
  • Check capacity: Ensure you are not exceeding the maximum fill line; excess liquids will overflow.
  • Level surface: Place the air fryer on a flat, level surface to prevent pooling on one side.

Repair:

  • Replace damaged parts: If the pan or basket is cracked or the nonstick layer is peeling, replace the entire fry basket and drawer pan assembly with a PowerXL-compatible part.
