Possible Causes
Bent drawer rails, Warped plastic housing from heat, Food debris in rail tracks, Damaged drawer latch mechanism
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Ensure the unit is cool before forcing the drawer; hot metal edges can cause burns.
Steps to correct drawer issues:
- Inspect rails: Remove the basket and drawer completely. Examine the drawer rails and guides inside the cavity for bends, cracks, or melted areas.
- Clean tracks: Remove crumbs and grease from the rails using a brush and damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.
- Check drawer body: Inspect the drawer sides and bottom for warping or cracks. Replace the Pro Breeze air fryer drawer/basket assembly if deformed.
- Align rails: Gently bend any slightly misaligned metal rails back into position using padded pliers. Do not over‑bend.
- Test insertion: Slide the empty drawer in and out several times to confirm smooth movement before use.
Warning: Forcing a jammed drawer can break the door switch actuator and create safety issues.
