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. If there are grease stains on the pan or basket and you have not been able to remove them with hot water and dishwashing liquid, use a liquid degreaser.
   • If necessary, fat residues that stuck to the splatter shield, can be removed with a sponge or a bristle brush.

3. Wipe the outside of the appliance with a moist cloth. Make sure no moisture remains on the control panel. Dry the control panel with a cloth after you have cleaned it.

4. Clean the splatter shield with a sponge or a cleaning brush to remove any fat residues.

5. Clean the inside of the appliance with hot water and a non-abrasive sponge.

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.

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.
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.| Please do not overfill the basket.
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.
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.
The WiFi LED on my Airfryer is not shining anymore.| The Airfryer is not connected to your home WiFi anymore. You have changed your home WiFi network.| Start the WiFi set up process and follow the instructions in the App.
The App shows that the pairing process is not successful.| Another user has paired the Airfryer with a different smart device and is currently cooking.| Wait until the other user has finished the current cooking process and re-pair your smart device with the Airfryer.
