Philips HD9226 Manuel D’Utilisation

Problem

Possible cause

Solution

The airfryer 

does not work.

The appliance is 

not plugged in. 

Put the mains plug in an earthed 

wall socket. 

You have not set 

the timer.

Turn the timer knob to the required 

preparation time to switch on the 

appliance.

The ingredients 

fried with 

the airfryer are 

not done.

The amount of 

ingredients in 

the basket is too big.

Put smaller batches of ingredients 

in the basket. Smaller batches are 

fried more evenly.

The set 

temperature is too 

low.

Turn the temperature control 

knob to the required temperature 

setting (see section ‘Settings’ in 

chapter ‘Using the appliance’).

The preparation 

time is too short.

Turn the timer knob to the required 

preparation time (see section ‘Settings’ 

in chapter ‘Using the appliance’).

The ingredients 

are fried 

unevenly in the 

airfryer.

Certain types of 

ingredients need 

to be shaken 

halfway through 

the preparation 

time.

Ingredients that lie on top of or 

across each other (e.g. fries) need 

to be shaken halfway through 

the preparation time. See section 

‘Settings’ in chapter ‘Using the 

appliance’.

Fried snacks are 

not crispy when 

they come out 

of the airfryer.

You used a type 

of snacks meant 

to be prepared in 

a traditional deep 

fryer.

Use oven snacks or lightly brush 

some oil onto the snacks for a 

crispier result.

I cannot slide 

the pan into 

the appliance 

properly.

There are 

too much 

ingredients in the 

basket.

Do not fill the basket beyond the 

MAX indication.

The basket is not 

placed in the pan 

correctly.

Push the basket down into the 

pan until you hear a click.

The handle of 

the baking tray 

is obstructing the 

pan.

Push the handle to a horizontal 

position, so it does not stick out 

on top of the basket.

White 

smoke comes 

out of the 

appliance.

You are preparing 

greasy ingredients.

When you fry greasy ingredients in 

the airfryer, a large amount of oil will 

leak into the pan. The oil produces 

white smoke and the pan may heat 

up more than usual. This does not 

affect the appliance or the end result.

The pan still 

contains grease 

residues from 

previous use.

White smoke is caused by 

grease heating up in the pan.  

Make sure you clean the pan 

properly after each use.

Fresh fries are 

fried unevenly 

in the airfryer.

You did not soak 

the potato sticks 

properly before 

you fried them.

Soak the potato sticks in a bowl 

for at least 30 minutes, take them 

out and dry them with kitchen 

paper.

You did not use 

the right potato 

type.

Use fresh potatoes and make sure 

they stay firm during frying.

Fresh fries 

are not crispy 

when they 

come out of 

the airfryer.

The crispiness of 

the fries depends 

on the amount of 

oil and water in 

the fries.

Make sure you dry the potato 

sticks properly before you add 

the oil.

Cut the potato sticks smaller for  

a crispier result.
Add slightly more oil for a crispier 

result.
