Just wanted to make everyone aware of the issue I had with my gas range.  It has an air fryer mode to use.  It comes with a basket, but no drip pan. I’m familiar with how air fryers need a pan to catch the drippings so I did put a cookie sheet under the basket.  However, it did not work well. My oven actually caught on fire, and thank the Lord I was able to put it out with baking soda.  This range needs to come with a specific drip pan made for the size of the basket. This was a safety hazard. Sadly, I will be returning the range.

Can't you buy a drip pan. Stoves and ranges don't typically come with stove or range accessories.

You can put anything under the rack with the air fryer basket to catch drips. You can use tin foil, the bottom half of a broiler pan, a silicone sheet, a cookie sheet, anything oven safe.

Return the range because there's no drip pan for the air fryer basket?  Go out and buy a different air fryer basket set that comes with a drip tray.  It's not like you are only allowed to use the one they gave you.  What were you cooking that was so greasy it caused your oven to catch fire? You used the wrong size cookie sheet under the basket, who's fault is that?  You are supposed to measure anything you use to catch drips against the vessel you are cooking in and and make sure it's at least an inch larger all around. Air fryers warn you not to fry fatty foods.
