Use broad ranges as orientation, never as a guarantee.

For practical food guidance, start with fries, chicken, salmon or vegetables, then account for your exact Philips profile and portion.

Choose the Philips profile that matches your appliance

  • Essential HD9252: use a single-basket starting point and leave space around the food.
  • Premium XXL HD9650: a larger basket can hold more food, but a crowded load still needs airflow and checks.
  • 3000 Series Dual Basket NA350/NA351/NA352: treat the large and small drawers separately, then use the appliance's timing feature to finish a meal together.

Philips describes its NA350 Dual Basket line as a 9L appliance with two differently sized drawers, a synchronisation function and presets for foods including fresh fries, frozen fries, chicken, vegetables and fish. That is useful for timing a meal, but it does not make one fixed setting correct for every portion.

Use these checks with every Philips Airfryer

  • Keep food in a loose layer when crispness matters.
  • Shake or turn where the food or package calls for it.
  • Start checking sooner for small portions and thinner pieces.
  • Check doneness, not just the display time.
