To clean an air fryer basket effectively, follow these steps:

• Unplug the air fryer and let it cool completely.
• Remove the basket and any other removable parts.
• Wash the basket with warm water and dish soap using a soft cloth or sponge to avoid damaging the non-stick coating.
• For stubborn grease or food residue, make a paste of baking soda and water, apply it to the basket, and let it sit for about 20 minutes before scrubbing gently with a toothbrush or sponge.
• Rinse thoroughly and dry the basket completely before reassembling.
• You can also place the basket in the dishwasher if it is dishwasher-safe.
• To clean the main unit, use a damp cloth on the exterior only; avoid immersing or touching the heating element inside.
• Regular cleaning after each use is recommended to prevent buildup.

These tips help keep the basket clean without damaging it and maintain the efficiency and hygiene of your air fryer.
