Important Cord Information
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit
into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords may
be used if care is properly exercised in their use.
If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance. The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over unintentionally.
Connect the power supply cord to a 120VAC electrical outlet only.
Before First Use
Become familiar with the food dehydrator (Fig. A) and read
and follow the instructions carefully. As received, your food
dehydrator will be in the storage position. Remove the dehy-
drator trays and cover from the base and wash them according
to the “Care, Cleaning, and Storage” instructions on page 10.
How To Assemble and Load Trays
for Dehydrating
1. Remove trays and cover from unit.
2. Turn over power base and unwrap cord.
3. Set base, right side up, on a dry, level surface. In order
to function properly, the dehydrator must have sufficient
airflow; therefore, be sure the base and cover vents are not
obstructed at any time. Never place dehydrator on carpet,
a towel, or newspaper.
4. Note that each tray has a smooth surface on one side and
raised ribs on the reverse side. Food goes on the smooth
side (see Fig. B1). The raised ribs should always be facing
down (see Fig. B2).
5. Select a tray with handles. Set the tray on the counter with
the words on the handle “THIS SIDE UP” facing up. Begin
loading tray with a single layer of food.
6. Place loaded tray onto power base. The first tray placed
onto the power base MUST have handles (Fig. A).
7. Select a tray without handles. Load food onto smooth sur-
face and stack tray without handles onto tray with handles.
8. Continue filling and stacking trays, alternating trays with
handles and without handles (Fig. A).
9. Place see-through cover over stacked trays. Position cover
so the words on the cover handles “THIS SIDE UP” are
facing up.
10. Plug cord into a 120VAC electrical outlet only and begin
dehydrating. See pages 4 through 10 for dehydrating
information for specific foods.
*Additional trays sold separately (see page 11).
