By selecting the desired food item and adjusting the filling level or specifying the quantity of ingredients, the Airfryer will automatically set the appropriate temperature and cooking time for your meal. Additionally, the Airfryer will alert you if any interaction is required during cooking, such as shaking fries. Important: The Airfryer comes with eight default auto-cook programs that can be initiated directly from the appliance. However, for a wider selection of options, you can access and download more auto-cook programs via the NutriU app. Simply connect your Airfryer to your network and pair your smart device with your appliance to begin exploring new culinary possibilities. Food Thermometer (HD9958, sold separately) The separately sold food thermometer can be used to cook your food to the desired doneness level. Put one end of the food thermometer to the food and the other end to the food thermometer socket (see chapter “food thermometer”). Cooking time In cooking mode “Manual cooking”, you can set the cooking time from 1 minute to 180 minutes. In Auto-Cook programs, you do not need to set a cooking time as the Auto-Cook program cooks your food based on your portion sizes or desired doneness level. In cooking mode “Food thermometer”, you do not need to set a cooking time as the cooking is automatically finished as soon the set core temperature of the food thermometer is reached. Cooking temperature In cooking mode “Manual cooking” you can set the cooking temperature from 40°C to 200°C. In cooking mode “Auto-Cook programs”, you do not need to set a cooking temperature because the cooking temperature is set automatically. Core temperature In cooking mode “Food thermometer”, you can set the core temperature of the food between 30°C and 99°C. The temperature at the center of the food will reach the set core temperature at the end of the cooking process. Note: The core temperature does not equal to the cooking temperature.13 English High and low air speeds Your Airfryer comes with two different air speed settings, a low air Speed and a high air Speed. In cooking mode “Auto-Cook programs”, the air speed is set automatically. In cooking modes “Manual cooking” or “Food Thermometer”, you need to set the air speed manually by pressing the air speed button. For typical oven dishes, such as lasagna, roasts, cakes etc., and for a long cooking time, use the low air speed. For typical Airfryer applications, such as fries, chicken nuggets, fish fingers etc. and for a shorter cooking time, use the high air speed. Note: If you choose the low air speed, the appliance is working in the silent mode. Keep warm function Your Airfryer has a keep warm mode. To activate this mode, simply press the "keep warm" button at any point during the cooking process - whether it's before you begin cooking, in between stages, or at the end of a cooking session. For more info see chapter “Keep warm”. Shaking reminder Your Airfryer comes with a shaking reminder feature that can be activated prior to starting your cooking session. This feature sends a notification halfway through the cooking time, reminding you to shake your food to ensure an evenly cooked result. This feature is especially useful when cooking foods with multiple pieces, such as various types of fries. Additionally, it can be utilized as a reminder to turn foods like chicken drumsticks. By default the shaking reminder is deactivated. You can activate it before or during the cooking process by pressing the "shaking reminder" button. Sound notifications Sometimes you hear a sound, for example when the appliance has finished cooking, or when there is an action required during cooking, e.g., shaking or turning food. Light ring Your Airfryer comes with an animated light ring, which enhances the usability of your Airfryer. Spinning mode: The light ring is spinning around when an update is running. Breathing mode: The light ring is blinking slowly if you have pressed the rotary button during cooking. In this case the appliance is in the pause mode.

Warning: Let the basket, pan and the inside of the appliance cool down

completely before you start cleaning.27 English

Warning: The pan and basket 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. Tip: Remove the pan and basket to let the Airfryer cool down faster. 1 Dispose of rendered fat or oil from the bottom of the pan. 2 Clean the pan, 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 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.

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 Centre in your country. Problem Possible cause Solution The outside of the appliance becomes hot during use. The heat inside radiates to the outside walls. This is normal. All handles and knobs that you need to touch during use stay cool enough to touch.29 English Problem Possible cause Solution 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. My home-made fries do not turn out as I expected. You did not use the right potato type. To get the best results, use fresh floury 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. The amount of ingredients in the basket is too big. Do not overfill the basket or exceed the maximum filling level

Certain types of ingredients need to be shaken halfway through the cooking time. The fuller the basket the more frequent shaking is recommended. The Airfryer does not switch on. The appliance is not plugged in. Check if the plug is inserted in the wall outlet properly. Several appliances are connected to one outlet. The Airfryer has a high wattage. Try a different outlet and check the fuses. I see some peeling off 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 off. If this occurs, please be informed that this is not harmful as all materials used are food-safe. White smoke comes out of the appliance. You are cooking fatty ingredients. Carefully pour off any excess oil or fat from the pan and then continue cooking.30 English Problem Possible cause Solution The pan still contains greasy residues from previous use. White smoke is caused by greasy residues heating up in the pan. Always clean the pan and the basket thoroughly after every use. Breading or coating did not adhere properly to the food. Tiny pieces of airborne breading can cause white smoke. Firmly press breading or coating to food to ensure it sticks. Marinade, liquid or meat juices are splattering in the rendered fat or grease. Pat food dry before placing it in the basket.
