Air fryer leaks oil or liquid onto the countertop during or after cooking.

Possible Causes
Damaged or warped cooking basket, Cracked non‑stick pan, Overfilled basket causing overflow, Missing or damaged pan gasket (on some models)
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Allow the unit to cool before handling hot oil or cleaning spills.
- Inspect basket and pan: Remove and wash both. Check for cracks, warping, or damaged non‑stick coating that may allow leaks.
- Check capacity: Ensure you are not exceeding the maximum fill line. Overfilling can cause fat and juices to overflow.
- Examine seals: Some Salter models use a silicone or rubber gasket between the basket and pan. Inspect for damage or misalignment and replace if worn.
- Level surface: Confirm the air fryer is on a flat, level surface so liquids collect evenly in the pan.
- Replace damaged parts: If the pan or basket is cracked or warped, replace with genuine Salter replacement parts to restore a proper seal.
