Actually, the value of timeoutInterval property is ignored - I've checked by debugging the method requestWithMethod:URLString:parameters:error:

I managed to subclass and override the method (Swift)

class RequestSerializer: AFHTTPRequestSerializer {

    override func requestWithMethod(method: String!, URLString: String!, parameters:AnyObject!, error: NSErrorPointer) -> NSMutableURLRequest {
            var req = super.requestWithMethod(method, URLString: URLString, parameters: parameters, error: error)
                req.timeoutInterval = self.timeoutInterval
                return req
    }
}
