Possible Causes

Steam condensing on cool countertop, Overfilled basket with high‑moisture foods, Exhaust directed at nearby surfaces, Cracked drip tray allowing liquids to escape

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug before moving the unit for cleaning.

  • Placement: Place the air fryer on a heat‑resistant mat to catch condensation. Ensure good ventilation around the exhaust.
  • Check tray: Inspect the drip tray for cracks or poor fit. Replace if damaged.
  • Food loading: Avoid overloading with very wet foods; drain or pat dry before cooking.
  • Wipe down: After cooking, wipe any moisture from the underside and surrounding area.

Minor condensation is normal, but visible pooling of liquid suggests a tray or drawer issue.
