  18. A short power-supply (or detachable power-supply cord) should be used to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

  19. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used:

    • The marked electrical rating of the cord must be as great as the rating of the appliance.
    • The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the edge of the counter or table top where it could be pulled by children or tripped over unintentionally.
    • If the appliance is of grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounded-type 3-wire cord.
  20. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

  21. Oversize foods or oversize metal utensils must not be inserted in the appliance as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.

  27. Do not leave appliance unattended while it is operating.

  28. This appliance operates at high temperatures which may cause burns. Do not touch hot surfaces, parts or the inside of the appliance while it is operating. Let the appliance cool down completely before you handle or
    clean it.

  29. During hot airdrying, hot steam is released through the hot air outlet openings. Keep your hands and face away from the steam and air outlet openings.

  30. Avoid contact with moving parts.

  31. This appliance works with hot air only; food is not fried in oil or fat! Never fill the pan with fat or oil.

  32. This product is for household use only.

  33. Never use the Airfryer without the pan, basket or fat separator in place.

Refer to the pictures on the folded pages at the front and back of the user manual.

Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to Philips!

To fully benefit from the support that Philips offers, register your product at www.philips.com/welcome.

Your Philips Airfryer XL uses hot air to fry your favorite food with little or no added oil. Unlike other low fat fryers, it is built to fry as crispy as deep fried with the least amount of fat.

Its uniqueness lies in the combination of its powerful heater of 1725 watt and the new Twin TurboStar Technology that generates hot swirling air through the whole cooking basket resulting in a perfectly crispy taste with the least amount of fat. Fat released from the food is captured in one place at the bottom of the pan for easy disposal and cleaning.

You can now enjoy perfectly cooked fried food – crispy on the outside tender on the inside – Fry, grill and bake to prepare a variety of tasty dishes in a healthy, fast and easy way.

  • The keep warm mode is designed to keep your dish warm immediately after it is cooked in the Airfryer. It is not meant for reheating.

Making home-made fries
To make great home-made fries in the Airfryer:

  • Choose a potato variety suitable for making fries, e.g. fresh russet potatoes.
  • It is best to air fry the fries in portions of up to 1000 grams / 35 oz for an even result. Larger fries tend to be less crispy than smaller fries.
  • Shake the basket 2-3 times during the airfrying process.
  1. Peel the potatoes and cut into sticks (8x8mm / 5/16 x 5/16 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 a half tablespoon of cooking oil in 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 in the basket at once to prevent excess oil from going into the pan.

  6. Put the sticks in the basket.

  7. Fry the potato sticks and shake the basket halfway through the air frying process. Shake 2-3 times if you prepare more than 500g/17.6 oz of fries.

Note
Consult the chapter “Food table” for the right quantities and cooking times.

Cleaning

Warning

  • Let the basket, pan, fat separator and the inside of the appliance cool down completely before you start cleaning.
  • Remove the fat separator from the pan using rubber tipped tongs. Do NOT remove using your fingers as hot fat or oil collects under the fat separator.
  • The pan, basket, fat separator and 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 to prevent smoke.

  1. Press the power On/Off ( ) button to switch off the appliance, remove the plug from the wall outlet and let the appliance cool down.
    Tip
    Remove the pan and basket to let the Airfryer cool down more quickly.

  2. Remove the fat separator from the pan using rubber tipped tongs. Dispose of rendered fat or oil from the bottom of the pan.

  3. Clean the pan, basket and fat separator 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 stick to the pan, fat separator 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, fat separator or 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. (Fig. 39) 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. (Fig. 40)

  6. Clean the inside of the appliance with hot water and a non-abrasive sponge. (Fig. 41)

This appliance has no other user-serviceable parts. For assistance in the U.S. or Canada only, call 1-866-309-8817.
