This was my second air fryer th-cam.com/users/postUgkxD4Qeo-HRLxMfom_PDinM_SBfes00qJsB . The last one worked fine but was large and a bit loud. This one is outstanding. It is smaller overall but still has plenty of capacity. It crisps the food better. You don't get one side soggy if you forget to turn it over. It is pretty quiet, easy to use, easy to clean, and works great. It chimes to alert you to functions, like when to turn over food that benefits from that. The automatic pre-heat is great. The display is large and easy to read, the light inside is actually useful. The window is worth the extra $10. It looks good sitting out on my counter. I haven't been this happy with an appliance for a long time. Good value for money.
Just did my second clean a year on. Still appreciate this video. I change the two red wires to electrical connectors to make it easier to disconnect too. Great idea
I have Phillips Airfryer too, I want to clean it inside and rinse it but it's difficult without doing the Disassemble and this video is very helpful. I believe this is a strategy by Phillips for planned obsolescence, creating a product problem with a design flaw.
Hi there, thank you for the tutorial, but when i cleaned mine i have - - - - - signs in display after some time when i turned airdfryer on. Is this not proper screw terminal? i found some in shelf and used it... Thanks for answer or any help@@ZvonimirAnn
Damn this is a total disassembly! I just bought mine a couple of days ago, XXL too but not the smart one. Watching this video to see the kind of maintenance I gotta do and omg.
Hey! Good video, thanks for sharing! It helped me to disassemble mine, what is a similar airfryer form Philips. Footnote: You've forgot to mention, that you've cut the red wires which are connected to the heating element. I decided not to cut those, but rather cut the metal plate behind the heating element, so next time it will be easier to remove the heating element.
I myself has a similar model ( HD9650/90), wich I dissambled- degreased myself. But what I didn't remember was how the fan was mounted. In wich position sholud the fan wheel be mounted? Sholud it be mounted below or on top? Since it's a specific profile,in wich the air flow is regulated
AND Be prepared to do this regularly....... It amazes me how it is not mentioned more frequently by those people who claim to love there airfryer...... I personally do not like my kitchen full of smoke and the rear vent area cannot be cleaned unless a full breakdown as per the video....
We have same problem, I was thinking disassembling as what you did. But after watching your video, hmmm this has put me off. Especially it will get Oily again after few cooks! Just wondering, is there any other Airfryer brands/make that has easy access to the Heating elements for cleaning? 🤔 Salamat sa pagshare sano! 😊
Update: I take it back. I was finally able to remove the "dial" and basically you have to use a flat head to expand the space from top to bottom on the plastic rim AROUND the "dial", so do not try to pop the "dial" itself and DO NOT start from the bottom. The "dial area" will pop off exposing one screw, which finally lets you remove the top. Almost everything else is similar; but a few differences, like the fan which does not have a washer underneath but some sort of half moon expander with the washer on top. Some close ups would have been better, but otherwise I was abe to use this video to figure out the few differences with my model. I broke 3 inner tabs on the top layer, but I just "crazy glued" the tab pieces back; since they broke clean as I popped slowly. Anyone else trying this, try to use a flashlight to see underneath and use a hook tool to push in the tab outwards (impossible?); otherwise just pop up slowly with a flat head until it gives, which might break 1 to 3 out of 7, but at least it is "clean". Another HUGE warning, but take a photo of the wiring before you start to disconnect; because my colors were different and you will find later that you have multiple whites and multiple blues with the red and brown splitting off. I guess you could find a wiring diagram somewhere; but photo or video a careful mapping of the wires and what they connect to; otherwise your deep clean was for nothing, as it will blow up when you plug it in, haha... I did not bother creating a video and final Screw count: 9 bottom, 3 inner bottom, 4 top, 7 outer top, 7 inner top, 3 inner dish, 6 outer dish. Basically, a crap load of screws of different sizes, so take your own pictures and video; which I did, but nothing like this gentleman. Thanks for the inspiration and now my Air Fryer is almost like new after a deep clean... Good Video. Unfortunately, this disassembly does not match for the Philips "Avance Collection" HD9641/56 model, so still trying to figure out how to remove the "dial" in front without breaking the whole top panel. There are two screws underneath; but they do not release the "dial". Furthermore, the top panel can be removed; but if you "pop" it up, then it will break the plastic tabs holding it in. You have to know exactly where the THREE tabs are claimping and somehow wedge a flat head underneath to push them in; so I already broke the tabs although it is not critical for holding that top panel in. Make sure to include your Model No. in your Title or Description; because they are not al the same unfortunately... 🤕
can you help me cause I cant remember where to put the extra 2 washers the is 4 washer 2 on the fan and the other 2 i dont remeber where they should be. thanks
The thing is... it's so damn expensive that after 4 years of occasional use, and being really aware it's pretty gross inside, you're at the point of "either I spend big bucks to buy another one and toss this one (who wants a gunky air fryer?), or I figure out how to de-gunk the one I've got."
Hey man, great job you did there. This encouraged me to disassemble mine (Airfryer XL) but putting it back together I seem to have left one piece out. It's a black plastic rod with a knob in the middle (not right in the middle, closer to one end), with a little spring that sits on the knob. I think it fell off right after I flipped the heavy part with all the circuitry on it. If I am not wrong, the same piece is sitting in the back next to this orange-black screwdriver around 01:55. But I couldn't find the section you removed or attached it back to the airfryer. Can you point me into the right direction :) Thanks
@@ZvonimirAnn I am having the exact same problem. I realize that the "black plastic rod with knob and spring" is for the door mechanism, but I cannot find where it resides when re-assembling back the airfryer. Many thanks! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Nice video. I would never do this. But it makes me angry that its almost impossible to clean it properly and the device isn't chrap. Philips doesn't help.
Hi mate Where did you get replacement parts? And it looks like you did it before , because your red cable is in the connection in the middle,our is in one piece
What about using oven cleaner and a steamer turning it upside down and then letting it stand for a few days to dry out out VS the risk. Of complete disassembly and breaker a clip or messing up the wiring
Not good idea. All the chemical and oil will go in electric parts if you flip it up side down. If you let it stay more then 4hours with oven cleaner will start to remove shine on metal parts... I realy don't like this toy coz it's hard to clean it.
ye well you must take it apart every 6 months to enjoy your meal.... I hate it mate... better to add $600 to price of oven and have super fan oven. will make same job and will be easy to clean...
That is the deepest airfryer clean I have seen, good job but I can't do it this way. So I cleaned my airfryer as good as possible, after cleaning I turned it on but now it causes short circuit. Could it be possible that moist of the cleaning is the cause? And would it be ok after drying? I hope I didn't destroy the connection of the heating element with cleaning because I was lifting it up.
Ye to much moister went into wires... Will not harm heating element connection. Only problem can be printed circuit board... Open it and check what's going on inside... I don't know how will you dry it if it's tripping out...
@@ZvonimirAnn Thanks for the reply! I tried to put the airfryer on yesterday and immediately there was a short circuit again. I just tried it on again and it works! I am very happy but stiil worried that I get electrocuted, is that possible?
Philips airfryerımızdan beyaz duman çıkıyordu. Kendi sitesinde yazanları da göz önünde bulundurarak, izlediğimiz videolardan da gördüğümüz kadarıyla bir temizlik teşebbüsünde bulunduk. Rezistansında biriken yağ lekerini ne karbonatlı su çıkardı, ne temizlik kimyasalları, ne de aktif köpükler... Bunları fazla fazla uygulamadım elbette. Cihazın ıslanmamasına özen gösterdim. Neticede çalışma prensibi saç kurutma makinesi ile aynı desem yeridir. Baktım olmuyor kuruması için bıraktım. Sonra çalıştırmak istedim ama cihaz çalışmıyor. Buradan cihaz sahiplerine sesleniyorum. Kesinlikle rezistans(ısıtıcı eleman) kısmına el bile sürmeyin. Philips airfryer ın yağ engelleme aparatı varmış ekstradan satılan onu alın. Şu an ağıtlar yakıyor methiyeler diziyorum. Keşke hiç ellemeseydim de bembeyaz dumanı seyretmeye devam etseydim. Keşke hiç ellemeden philips servisi arasaydım. Pişman olursunuz ; airfryera ellemeyin. Bu mesajımı kopyalayıp izlediğim diğer videolara da yapıştıracağım. Kullanıcılar mağdur olmasın diye.
Bu tasarımlar daha oturmadı yakında ya filtreli ya rezistansı çıkan bambaşka modeller gelecek. Gelmek zorunda. Bu cihazlar 7 yıl cihaz ömrüyle satılıyor. Bu şekilde 1 yıl dayanamıyor. Bu sürdürülebilir değil. Bir mühendis gözlüyle bu cihaz satın alan herkesi uyardım şimdi geri dönüşler yapılıyor.. Olan oldu. Bu videoyu da temizliği için rica eden bir yakınımın için izledim ilk günkü gibi oldu ama herkesin yapacağı bir iş değil. Temizlik ayrı dert cihazın oluşturduğu akrilamid tehlikesi bambaşka. Uzak durun.
So small device and so many parts to be removed in order to clean. You literally have to film your disassembly to reassemble it back without extra leftover parts.
My XXL developed a fault, still under extended warranty, but they refused to fix it citing that had not been cleaned. It DEFINITELY HAD been cleaned, but it is impossible to clean inside all the finnicky parts around the heating element as you have pointed out at the start of the video. To me this is a design flaw. You are right to want to clean the unit, but it should not require this amount of disassembly to clean properly. This is an excellent disassembly video in order to clean the unit, but the critical part is the cleaning and none of that is on the video. Once you took the element and the element holder and the circulation fan out from the unit... what was your method of cleaning??
Hello, i started to do this yesterday after watching this video with my Philips HD 9261/90 but i pulled out a cable to much. Now i don't anymore how to connect them the right way. Can you please help me to find my a service manual for this airfryer? Thanks in advance.
Don't do it! I've spent the whole day pulling it apart, cleaning it and putting it back together. It's an absolute nightmare. I nearly threw it in the bin.
It looks to me that you never wants to tear it down to clean inside the ventilation and heater. The dirt on top should not be the cause since no heat wave flow over the bowl. Just clean and rinse the bowl area and remove all oils from the last cooking it would be sufficient reduce the smoke. If it is causing by what it is believed like this video the top area needs to be clean every cook and that sounds terrific regarding maintenance.
Depends what you coock. If pork with fats for 4 persons, food is just 2cm below spiral heater.... so what ever you do it will burn smoke... Its great toy for veggies...
I would mess this up so badly. I acquired an air fryer for free and I haven’t used it yet. This makes me not want to use it. Thanx though! Maybe i could have someone else disassemble it to clean cuz i know I’ll screw it up 😂
bruh literally the fan is impossible to remove without breaking the original bolt on mine, its so frustrating. one side of the screw is flat making it so that no matter how you turn or how long you turn, it will not come out
@@ZvonimirAnn yes sir, there's two fans but neither of them turn on their own. One of which I didn't even have to remove, thus I assume it's a power issue
I disassembled mine, differemt model than yours, but whwn i tried to put it back together i couldnt manage to seat the nut holding the fan blades back on :( any pointers?
2000w spiral, fan few buttons and plastic totally not worth it... I was expecting at least easier cleaning access.. but it is what is... can't change it..
Phillips you made it so easy to clean. Not !!! Why not make it easy ready to clean from factory not all this screwing around to unsafe if you lost a few screw or broke internals.
I was able to remove the top cover very easily right after cooking when the plastic was warm. I will work on the rest soon 😂😂😂 I am afraid I won't be able to put all pieces back in place.
I have the same Air Fryer as ZLAT and it is great, but Philips need to improve the design around the element and metal backing plate that gets extremely dirty. For eg. a slide out tray above the element that is easy to clean and would reduce the amount work required to clean the Airfryer. Change the design so you can open the Airfryer up in half and the element is accessible. Just my two cents haha
That was my first thought: The worst I can do is miss a part or connection as I'm putting it back together. Vs. laptop: "I can't get this finicky piece of plastic-tapey material to sit quite right", "I thought these pieces meshed together more closely", "Oh, crap, I didn't put the insulating material between places X and Y." Etc.
I can see you have done this before as you have made connection to disconnect the element wires. Good job, I have just done mine its the same model.

It's crazy man, you have to rebuild the thing each time. Surely the manufacturers can make this easier to do. Damb.
But they wont. They want you to buy a new one.. bastards
The only way to clean a hobby fryer👍

You must push in the locking lip and pull up the top at same time
Phillips you made it so easy to clean. Not !!! Why not make it easy ready to clean from factory not all this screwing around to unsafe if you lost a few screw or broke internals.
Paano po e open ang air fryer na kaisa villa?
Sorry po d po kami familiar sa kaisa villa airfryer. Similar din siguro
I was able to remove the top cover very easily right after cooking when the plastic was warm. I will work on the rest soon 😂😂😂 I am afraid I won't be able to put all pieces back in place.
Not many pieces mate, only to look for door switch when assembleing at.
@@ZvonimirAnn 8 screws I was not able to put in place 🤭
Yup, I'm not buying a Air Fryer now!
If I knew this I will never buy it mate...
This is XXL and it's a lie that is big enougth for four servings...
I have the same Air Fryer as ZLAT and it is great, but Philips need to improve the design around the element and metal backing plate that gets extremely dirty. For eg. a slide out tray above the element that is easy to clean and would reduce the amount work required to clean the Airfryer. Change the design so you can open the Airfryer up in half and the element is accessible. Just my two cents haha
Airfryer is $650 AUD
I need 200 000 more like you to pay it of..
Ye mate I agree, I think its too much money for plastic, heating element and fan...
Bez te lampe u ustima nebi mogao nista napraviti..🤣
Lampa je ta koja radi poso, ja samo drzim i zanovijetam...
Not as bad as I thought, definitely more approachable than a laptop. Reconnecting all the wires correctly will probably be the trickiest part.
That was my first thought: The worst I can do is miss a part or connection as I'm putting it back together. Vs. laptop: "I can't get this finicky piece of plastic-tapey material to sit quite right", "I thought these pieces meshed together more closely", "Oh, crap, I didn't put the insulating material between places X and Y." Etc.
Omg, thats too complicated
same fryer and mine dosnt have the 1:48 THING and is blocked they made this on purpose so it can't be clean, fk phillips
