how do i clean the racks in my chefman dual basket air fryer? they're stuck and i don't wanna break them.

— asked by Taylor

First, let everything cool completely. The racks are designed to be removable for cleaning, but you need to use the right technique.

Fix:

  1. Unplug the unit and let it cool. For faster cooling, remove the hot baskets.
  2. Once cool, take a basket and locate the center grip bar on the rack inside.
  3. Pinch that center grip bar firmly with your thumb and index finger.
  4. Pull the rack straight up and out of the basket. Don't twist or yank from the side.

If that didn't work: If food residue is gluing it in place, fill the basket with warm, soapy water and let it soak for 15-20 minutes to loosen the debris, then try the removal steps again.

Heads up: Never lift the rack out when it's hot, or you could burn yourself. Wash the racks and baskets with warm, soapy water. They are top-rack dishwasher safe. Do not use abrasive cleansers, as they will damage the nonstick coating.
