Step 1
First thing to do is turn off the Kalorik air fryer. If it is still hot you will have to wait for it to cool down.
Unplug the air fryer from the wall outlet. This is to avoid any injury from touching electrical components with water.
Step 2
Grab a paper towel and scrub the bottom (pictured below) of the Kalorik air fryer basket. This will remove most of the food residue.
Step 3
Fill your kitchen sink with hot water and add some dish soap. Soak the air fryer basket in the kitchen sink like in the picture below.
Soak the air fryer trivet too, like in the following picture. Leave both the air fryer basket and trivet soaking for 5 minutes.
Step 4
Whiel we wait for the air fryer basket and trivet to soak we are going to clean the interior. We are going to make a mixture of white vinegar, baking soda and dish soap. First add a teaspoon of baking soda, white vinegar and dish soap to water.
Grab a soft cloth and add some of the mix you just prepared. Start cleaning the inside bottom and sides like in the picture below.
With the same soft cloth and cleaning mixture you con go ahead and clean the exterior of your Kalorik air fryer.
Step 5
For this step we will flip the Kalorik air fryer upside down to have easier access to the heating element.
With the soft cloth and the cleaning mixture gently scurb the area sourrounding the heating element. With the same cloth you can clean the heating element directly, just be very gentle because it is very delicate.

We rinse the air fryer basket (pcitured below) and the air fryer trivet.
