HOW TO USE
1. Make sure unit is OFF and unplugged before using.
2. Always wash the dehydrator trays and lid before each use
to avoid any food contamination.
3. Place base on a at, smooth countertop surface where it
will not fall or be pulled by the plug.
4. Prepare food to be dehydrated as instructed in this
manual; preparation depends on the type of food. Do not
overlap food or overload trays.
5. Arrange food on trays, but do not place trays on the base;
stack up the trays rst and set them aside.
NOTE: When placing red meat(s) on trays, do not allow to
touch sides of drying tray.
6. Plug unit into electrical wall outlet, set to desired
temperature by turning the control knob clockwise.
7. Place stacked trays onto the base, cover the top tray with
the lid, and allow food to dry for the recommended length
of time; drying time may vary depending on the type of
food.
NOTE: It is recommended to rotate the trays mid-way
through the drying process for best dehydrating results.
For example, move the bottom trays to the top as items in
the bottom position will dehydrate faster than those on
top.
8. Begin to check on food before the dehydration period is
completed; check food for desired dryness. Remove
individual pieces and store in containers or food bags. If
some pieces are not yet done, leave them on the
dehydrator and check frequently until all food
dehydration is completed.
9. Turn the unit OFF and unplug after using.
10. Always wash the dehydrator trays and lid after each use.
Wipe the base with a soft damp cloth or sponge; do not
allow water or any other liquid to get into the base. Make
sure the trays and lid are completely dry before replacing
them on the base.
NOTE:
Always start to load
the food from the
bottom tray to the
top tray.
It is recommended to
stack at least 3
working trays,
whether you have
food on them or not.
Set low temperature
for thin/small pieces
of food or for a small
load of food. Set high
temperature for
drying thick/big
pieces of food and
large loads. The
thermostat can also
be used to decrease
the temperature as
the food is near the
end of its drying cycle
making it easier to
control the nal
moisture level in the
food.
For best results, we
recommend placing
red meats (minimum
93% fat free) on the
stainless steel portion
of the trays. You
should avoid having
the meat touching
the plastic sides of the
trays. This will result
in longer life for your
dehydrating trays.
Additionally, hand
wash trays with warm
soapy water.
