Quick Answer
Follow the first-use and basket-care instructions for your exact model. Do not assume an air fryer basket needs seasoning or that heating oil repairs a worn coating. Only use a seasoning procedure explicitly allowed by its manufacturer.
Philips publishes a model-scoped cleaning and empty-run procedure for a plastic odor; setup guidance must be checked for the exact appliance. The page lists NA555/00, NA330/00 and NA331/00 with further models available. It does not establish a universal burn-in or seasoning procedure, repair damaged coatings, or diagnose unexplained burning/electrical smells.

Basket material alone does not establish whether seasoning is appropriate. Check the exact model and accessory instructions. Do not apply a generic oil-and-heat procedure or copy a procedure from another appliance.
Follow the model's instructions for packaging removal, first-use cleaning, placement and ventilation clearance. Any initial empty run must use the manufacturer's specified procedure for that model; there is no universal temperature, duration or repetition count.
Switch off, unplug and let the appliance cool before cleaning. Follow the manual for removable parts, the interior and heater area, including cleaning agents and dishwasher compatibility. Do not immerse the main unit or dismantle the housing. Do not heat lemon, vinegar, water or oil as a generic odor-removal treatment.
Oil does not repair flaking, peeling or damaged coatings. Stop using damaged parts and contact the manufacturer about an approved replacement. Do not try to hide an unexplained burning smell by seasoning or repeated empty heating.
