Using the appliance
Airfrying
Caution
•This is an Airfryer that works on hot air. Do not ll the pan with
oil or frying fat.
•Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. Only hold the
pan by the basket handle.
•This appliance is for household use only.
•This appliance may produce some smoke when you use it for the
rst time. This is normal.
•Preheating of the appliance is not necessary.
1 Place the appliance on a stable, horizontal, level and
heat-resistant surface.
Note
•Do not put anything on top or on the sides of the appliance. This
could disrupt the airow and aect the frying result.
2 Unwind the power cord from the cord storage wrap.
3 Put the plug in the wall outlet.
4 Remove the pan from the appliance.

12 ENGLISH
5 Put the ingredients in the basket.
Note
•The Airfryer can prepare a large range of ingredients. Consult the
‘Food table’ for the right quantities and approximate cooking
times.
•Do not exceed the amount indicated in the ‘Food table’ section or
overll the basket beyond the ‘MAX’ indication as this could aect
the quality of the end result.
•If you want to prepare dierent ingredients at the same time,
make sure you check the suggested cooking time required for the
dierent ingredients before you start to cook them simultaneously.
Home-made fries and drumsticks, for example, can be cooked
simultaneously because they require the same settings.
6 If the basket or non-stick grill pan (HD9627, HD9623
only) is placed back into the pan, slide the pan back into
the appliance. Turn the temperature control knob to the
required temperature.
7 Turn the timer knob to the required cooking time to switch
on the appliance.
Note
•The heating-up light goes on. During use the heating-up light
goes on from time to time. This indicates that the appliance is
heating up to the right temperature.
•The timer continues to count down the set cooking time.
•Some ingredients require shaking or turning halfway through the
cooking time (see ‘Food table’). To shake the ingredients, remove
the pan from the appliance and shake it over the sink. Then slide
the pan back into the appliance. To reduce the weight, you can
also remove the basket from the pan.
•Be careful not to press the basket release button while shaking.
Tip
•If you set the timer to half the cooking time, when you hear the
timer bell it is time to shake or turn the ingredients. Be sure to
reset the timer to the remaining cooking time.
°C

13ENGLISH
8 When you hear the timer bell, the set cooking time
has elapsed. You can also switch o the appliance
manually. To do this, turn the power-on knob to 0
(counterclockwise); this requires some more force than
turning clockwise.
Note
•Excess oil from the ingredients is collected on the bottom of the
pan.
•If you prepare several batches of fatty ingredients (e.g. drumsticks,
sausages or hamburgers), carefully pour o any excess oil or
rendered fat from the pan after each batch or before shaking or
replacing the basket in the pan.
9 Remove the pan from the appliance and place it on a
heat-resistant surface.
10 Check if the ingredients are ready.
Note
•If the ingredients are not ready yet, simply slide the pan back into
the appliance and set the timer for a few extra minutes.
•After hot airfrying, the pan, basket, accessories, housing and
ingredients are hot. Depending on the type of ingredients in the
basket, steam may escape from the pan.
11 Press the basket release button and lift the basket out of
the pan.
12 Empty the basket contents into a bowl or onto a plate.
Always remove the basket with ingredients from the pan
to serve as hot oil or rendered fat may be in bottom of the
pan.
Note
•To remove large or fragile ingredients, use a pair of tongs to lift out
ingredients.

Making home-made fries
To make great home-made fries in the Airfryer:
- Choose a potato variety suitable for making fries, e.g. fresh,
slightly oury potatoes.
- It is best to air fry the fries in portions of up to 500 grams
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 (1/2cm / 1/4 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 ngers 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 airfrying process. Shake 2-3 times if you
prepare more than 400g of fries.
Note
•Consult the chapter “Food table” for the right quantities and
cooking times.

15ENGLISH
Using the double-layer rack
(HD9627, HD9622 only)
Use the double-layer rack to maximize your cooking space.
Note
•If cooking dierent ingredients at the same time, make sure that
the cooking temperature and time is the same for each type of
ingredient.
•Always position meats on lower level and vegetables above to
avoid cross contamination of food or unsafe transfer of meat
juices or partially cooked foods.
1 Follow steps 1 to 4 of section ‘Airfrying’.
2 Put one half of the ingredients in the basket.
3 Place the double-layer rack in the basket.
4 Put the second half of the ingredients onto the double-
layer rack.
5 Follow steps 6 to 12 of section ‘Airfrying’.
Warning
•The double-layer rack becomes very hot during use. Wear oven
gloves when you remove the double-layer rack from the basket.

16 ENGLISH
Using the non-stick grill pan
(HD9627, HD9623 only)
1 Follow steps 1 to 3 of section ‘Airfrying’.
2 Press the basket release button and lift the basket out of
the pan.
3 Attach the EasyClick handle to the non-stick grill pan (see
‘Placing the EasyClick handle’).
4 Place the non-stick grill pan in the pan.
5 Put the ingredients on the non-stick grill pan.
6 Follow steps 6 to 12 of section ‘Airfrying’.
Using the splatter-proof lid
(HD9622/45, HD9621/45 only)
Use the splatter-proof lid if you are cooking light-weight
ingredients in order to keep them in the basket, fatty
ingredients or to reduce the speed of browning.
Note
•When using the splatter-proof lid, you may need more time to
reach the same level of browning and doneness.
1 Follow steps 1 to 5 of section ‘Airfrying’.
2 Hold the lid with the top side facing you. Insert the two
hooks of the lid into the two slots on the front side of the
basket. Push the lid down until it locks into position (‘click’
on both sides).
3 Proceed with step 6 to 9 of section ‘Airfrying’.
4 Carefully remove the splatter-proof lid.
Warning
•The splatter-proof lid is very hot. Wear oven gloves when you
remove it.
5 Proceed with step 10 to 12 of section ‘Airfrying’.

Cleaning
Warning
•Let the basket, pan, accessories and the inside of the appliance
cool down completely before you start cleaning.
•The pan, basket and inside of 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 Turn the timer knob to 0, remove the plug from the wall
outlet and let the appliance cool down for 10 minutes.
Tip
•Remove the pan and the basket to let the Airfryer cool down more
quickly.
2 Clean the pan, basket, non-stick gill pan and splatter-
proof lid 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, double-layer rack 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, 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.

18 ENGLISH
3 Clean the inside of the appliance with hot water and a
non-abrasive sponge.
4 Clean the heating element with a cleaning brush to
remove any food residues.
5 Wipe the outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.

questions or contact the Consumer Care Center in your country.
Problem Possible cause Solution
The outside of
the appliance
becomes hot
during use.
The heat inside radiates
to the outside walls.
This is normal. All handles and knobs
that you need to touch during use stay
cool enough to touch.
The pan, basket, double-rack layer,
non-stick grill pan 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, slightly
oury potatoes. If you need to store the
