Airfrying

Caution

• This is an Airfryer that works on hot air. Do not ll the pan with oil, frying fat

or any other liquid.

• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. Handle the hot pan with

oven-safe gloves.

• This appliance is for household use only.

• This appliance may produce some smoke when you use it for the rst time.

This is normal.

2 Remove the pan with the basket from the appliance by pulling the

handle.

11ENGLISH

3 Put the ingredients in the basket.

Note

• The Airfryer can prepare a large range of ingredients. Consult the ‘Food table’

for the right quantities and approximate cooking times.

• Do not exceed the amount indicated in the ‘Food table’ section or overll the

basket beyond the ‘MAX’ indication as this could aect the quality of the end
result.

• If you want to prepare dierent ingredients at the same time, make sure you

check the suggested cooking time required for the dierent ingredients before
you start to cook them simultaneously.

12 ENGLISH

4 Put the pan with the basket back into the Airfryer.

process, press the On/O button again to continue the cooking process.

• The device is automatically in pause mode when you pull out the pan and the

basket. The cooking process continues when the pan and the basket are put in
the appliance again.

• To change the temperature unit from Celsius to Fahrenheit or the other way

around on your Airfryer, press the temperature up and down button at the
same time for about 10 seconds.

ingredients are hot. Depending on the type of ingredients in the Airfryer,
steam may escape from the pan.

12 Empty the basket contents into a bowl or onto a plate. Always remove

the basket from the pan to empty contents as hot oil may be in the
bottom of the pan.

Note

• To remove large or fragile ingredients, use a pair of tongs to lift out the

ingredients.

• Excess oil or rendered fat from the ingredients is collected on the bottom of

the pan.

• Depending on the type of ingredients cooking, you may want to carefully pour

o any excess oil or rendered fat from the pan after each batch or before
shaking or replacing the basket in the pan. Place the basket on a heat-resistant
surface. Wear oven-safe gloves to pour o excess oil or rendered fat. Return

Making home-made fries

To make great home-made fries in the Airfryer:

- Choose a potato variety suitable for making fries, e.g. fresh, (slightly)
oury potatoes.

- It is best to air fry the fries in portions of up to 800 g/28 oz for an even
result. Larger fries tend to be less crispy than smaller fries.

1 Peel the potatoes and cut into sticks (10 x 10 mm/0.4 x 0.4 in thick).
2 Soak the potato sticks in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes.

3 Empty the bowl and dry the potato sticks with a dish towel or paper

towel.

4 Pour one tablespoon of cooking oil into the bowl, put the sticks in the

bowl and mix until the sticks are coated with oil.

5 Remove the sticks from the bowl with your ngers or a slotted kitchen

utensil so excess oil remains in the bowl.

Note

• Do not tilt the bowl to pour all the sticks in the basket at once to prevent

excess oil from going into the pan.

6 Put the sticks into the basket.

7 Fry the potato sticks and shake the basket 2-3 times during cooking.

Cleaning

Warning

• Let the basket, the pan, and the inside of the appliance cool down

completely before you start cleaning.

• The pan, the basket, and the inside of the appliance have a non-stick

coating. Do not use metal kitchen utensils or abrasive cleaning materials as
this may damage the non-stick coating.

Clean the appliance after every use. Remove oil and fat from the bottom of
the pan after every use.

1 Press the power On/O ( ) button to switch o the appliance,

remove the plug from the wall outlet and let the appliance cool down.

Tip

• Remove the pan and the basket to let the Airfryer cool down more quickly.

2 Dispose of rendered fat or oil from the bottom of the pan.

3 Clean the pan and the basket in a dishwasher. You can also clean

them with hot water, dishwashing liquid and a non-abrasive sponge
(see ‘Cleaning table’).

Tip

• If food residues stuck to the pan or the basket, you can soak them in hot water

and dishwashing liquid for 10–15 minutes. Soaking loosens the food residues
and makes it easier to remove. Make sure you use a dishwashing liquid that
can dissolve oil and grease. If there are grease stains on the pan or the basket
and you have not been able to remove them with hot water and dishwashing
liquid, use a liquid degreaser.

• If necessary, food residues stuck to the heating element can be removed with

a soft to medium bristle brush. Do not use a steel wire brush or a hard bristle
brush, as this might damage the coating on the heating element.

4 Wipe the outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.

Note

• Make sure no moisture remains on the control panel. Dry the control panel with

a cloth after you have cleaned it.

5 Clean the heating element with a cleaning brush to remove any food

residues.

19ENGLISH

6 Clean the inside of the appliance with hot water and a non-abrasive

sponge.

20 ENGLISH

Cleaning table

Storage

1 Unplug the appliance and let it cool down.
2 Make sure all parts are clean and dry before storing.

Note

• Always hold the Airfryer horizontally when you carry it. Make sure that you also

hold the pan on the front part of the appliance as the pan with the basket can
slide out of the appliance if accidentally tilted downwards. This can lead to
damaging of these parts.

• Always make sure that the removable parts of the Airfryer are xed before you

carry and/or store it.

Troubleshooting

This chapter summarizes the most common problems you could encounter
with the appliance. If you are unable to solve the problem with the

information below, visit www.philips.com/support for a list of frequently
asked questions or contact the Consumer Care Center in your country.

Problem Possible cause Solution

The outside of the
appliance becomes
hot during use.

My home-made fries
do not turn out as I
expected.

The Airfryer does not
switch on.

The heat inside radiates to
the outside walls.

You did not use the right
potato type.

The amount of ingredients in
the basket is too big.

Certain types of ingredients
need to be shaken halfway
through the cooking time.

The appliance is not plugged
in.

Several appliances are
connected to one outlet.

This is normal. All handles and knobs that you
need to touch during use stay cool enough to
touch.

The pan, the basket, and the inside of the
appliance always become hot when the
appliance is switched on to ensure the food is
properly cooked. These parts are always too hot
to touch.

If you leave the appliance switched on for a
longer time, some areas get too hot to touch.
These areas are marked on the appliance with
the following icon:

As long as you are aware of the hot areas
and avoid touching them, the appliance is
completely safe to use.

To get the best results, use fresh oury
potatoes. If you need to store the potatoes, do
not store them in a cold environment like in a
fridge. Choose potatoes whose package states
that they are suitable for frying.

Follow the instructions in this user manual to
prepare home-made fries on page 19.

Follow the instructions in this user manual to
prepare home-made fries on page 19.

Check if the plug is inserted in the wall outlet
properly.

The Airfryer has a high wattage. Try a dierent
outlet and check the fuses.

21ENGLISH

I see some peeling
o spots inside my
Airfryer.

Some small spots can
appear inside the pan of the
Airfryer due to the incidental
touching or scratching of the
coating (e.g. during cleaning
with harsh cleaning tools
and/or while inserting the
basket).

You can prevent damage by lowering the basket
into the pan properly. If you insert the basket at
an angle, its side may knock against the wall of
the pan, causing small pieces of coating to chip
o. If this occurs, please be informed that this is
not harmful as all materials used are food-safe.

22 ENGLISH

Problem Possible cause Solution

White smoke comes
out of the appliance.

You are cooking fatty
ingredients.

Carefully pour o any excess oil or fat from the
pan and then continue cooking.

The pan still contains greasy
residues from previous use.

Breading or coating did not
adhere properly to the food.

Marinade, liquid or meat
juices are splattering in the
rendered fat or grease.

My display shows "E1". The device is broken/defect. Call the Philips service hot line or contact

White smoke is caused by greasy residues
heating up in the pan. Always clean the pan and
the basket thoroughly after every use.

Tiny pieces of airborne breading can cause
white smoke. Firmly press breading or coating to
food to ensure it sticks.

Pat food dry before placing it in the basket.
