   • If you want to prepare different ingredients at the same time, make sure you check the suggested cooking time required for the different ingredients before you start to cook them simultaneously.

6. Slide the drawer back into the Airfryer by the handle. ****

Cooking with Smart Chef programs
Season your ingredients as desired. Put the food inside the basket and slide the basket inside the appliance.
Note
• Do not use honey, syrups, or any other sugary ingredients to season your food, since the browning will get very dark.

1. Press the On/Off button to switch on the appliance.

2. To change the Smart Chef program, turn the QuickControl dial until the desired icon is blinking.

3. To confirm the Smart Chef program, press the quick control dial.
   The appliance automatically calculates the ideal cooking temperature and time. The screen displays the first estimated cooking temperature and time after a few minutes. During this time the appliance has already started cooking. As long as the screen displays the blinking bars and the temperature/time alternately, the appliance is still calculating the cooking time, and the appliance will automatically adjust the time during cooking.
   Note
   • To prepare a whole chicken, weigh the chicken before placing it in the basket. Choose the weight by turning the quick control dial and pressing it to confirm.
   • Do not pull out the drawer as long as the appliance is calculating the cooking time, which is indicated by blinking bars on the display. Otherwise, the Smart Chef program will stop, and the appliance will reset to the main menu. Proceed cooking with the manual mode because restarting the Smart Chef program with partially cooked food will lead to a wrong estimation of the cooking time.
   • As soon as the calculation phase is finished you will see the temperature and time displayed continuously (without blinking bars), and you may open the drawer to check the status of the food.
   

4. When you hear the bell and see the shake indication blinking, open the drawer and turn the ingredients or shake the basket with the ingredients. Then slide the basket back into the appliance.

5. When you hear the bell and the timer have elapsed to 0, the food is ready.
   Note
   • If your food is underdone or the food does not reach your preferred browning level, proceed with cooking for several more minutes by pressing the timer button (see steps 11–12 in the chapter “Using the appliance”).
   Making home-made fries
   To make great home-made fries in the Airfryer:
   1 Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks (10 x 10 mm/0.4 x 0.4 in thick).
   2 Soak the potato sticks in a bowl of lukewarm water (~40°C/100°F) for 3 minutes.
   3 Empty the bowl and dry the potato sticks with a dish towel or paper towel.
   4 Pour 1–3 tablespoons 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 fingers or a slotted kitchen utensil so excess oil remains in the bowl.
   Note
   • Do not tilt the bowl to pour all the sticks into the basket at once to prevent excess oil from going into the pan.

6. Put the sticks in the basket.

7. Start the Smart Chef program for homemade fries . When shaking the fries is needed, you will hear the timer bell and see the blinking shaking icon on the display.
   Note
   • Consult the chapter “Food table for Smart Chef programs” for the right quantities.

| | 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 homemade 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.| Follow the instructions in this user manual to prepare home-made fries (see ‘Food table for Smart Chef programs’ or download the free Airfryer App).
| Certain types of ingredients need to be shaken halfway through the cooking time.| Follow the instructions in this user manual to prepare homemade fries (see ‘Food table for Smart Chef programs’ or download the free Airfryer App).

| Several appliances are connected to one outlet.| The Airfryer has a high wattage. Try a different outlet and check the fuses.
Problem| Possible cause| Solution
---|---|---
After starting a Smart Chef program the appliance stopped the calculation phase| The cooking chamber temperature is too high either because the appliance is pre-heated or has not cooled down sufficiently between two batches.| Keep the drawer open for some minutes to cool it down. Close it and start the Smart Chef program again.
| The drawer is opened during the calculation phase.| Close the drawer and proceed to cook with the manual mode.
| The drawer is not closed properly.| Make sure that the drawer is closed properly.
The appliance has stopped cooking with the Smart Chef program.| The drawer is opened during the calculation phase.| Do not pull out the drawer as long as the appliance is calculating the cooking time, which is indicated by blinking bars on the display.
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 and the fat
reducer is not put in the pan.| Carefully pour off any excess oil or fat from the pan, place the fat reducer in the pan, and then continue cooking.
| 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, basket, and fat reducer 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.
My display shows 5 dashes as illustrated in the picture below.
| This is an error code.| 1. Unplug the appliance and let it rest for 5 minutes before plugging in again.
2. If your display still shows the dashes, call the Philips service hotline or contact the Consumer Care Center in your country.

FAQ’s

How can I break my Philips air range?

The Smart Cook software on the Philips Airfryer XXL Premium can not be stopped because doing so would render the cuisine temperature time computation useless.

What’s an air range’s top purpose?

An air range is a countertop cuisine appliance that employs a heating element and an important addict to circulate hot air, much like a convection roaster. Air toasters produce food that’s crisp on the outside and wettish and tender on the inside without actually cooking it.

Water is needed for a Philips air range?

No, an air range should not be used to foam food, and you should not fill it up with a lot of water or any other inordinate quantities of liquid.
