Dehydrating
You can use your THERMAL-CONVECTION™
oven to dehydrate a variety of foods.
1. Prepare food.
Prepare foods as recommended in
recipe.
2. Arrange food on drying racks.
Racks are not included with oven. See
below to order a dehydration kit* which
includes racks and a spacer or contact a
local store handling specialty cookware.
3. Place drying racks in the oven
to allow maximum air circula-
tion around the racks.
4. Position door.
Attach the dehydration spacer*, which is
specially designed to depress the oven
light plunger and maintain the operation
of the fan during dehydration.
The spacer provides a 1 inch gap
between the oven frame and the oven
door allowing moisture to escape.
* The dehydration spacer (Part No.
814166) or the dehydration kit which
includes racks and a spacer (Part No.
4395974) can be ordered from your
local KitchenAid dealer, or by calling
1-800-422-1230 and following the
instructions and telephone prompts
you hear.
NOTE: To learn detailed information about
dehydration, refer to a book written specifi-
cally about dehydrating and/or preserving
foods.
