STORAGE
⚫ Store food only after it has cooled down.
⚫ Food can be kept longer if stored in a cool, dry and dark place.
⚫ Remove all the air you possibly can from the storage container and close
tightly.
⚫ Optimal storage temperature is 60° or lower.
⚫ Never store food directly in a metal container.
⚫ Avoid containers that “breathe” or have a weak seal.
⚫ Check the contents of your dried food for moisture during the weeks following
dehydration. If there is moisture inside, you should dehydrate the contents for
a longer time to avoid spoiling.
⚫ For best quality dried food should not be kept for more than 1 year, if kept in
the refrigerator or freezer.
⚫ Dried meats, poultry and fish should be stored for no more than 3 months if
kept in the refrigerator, or 1 year if kept in the freezer.
Maintenance/Cleaning Method
After using, unplug the dehydrator from the power supply and let it cool down
before cleaning. Use a soft brush to remove stuck food on the trays. Dry all parts
with a clean cloth before storing the dehydrator. Clean the surface of body with
moist cloth.
Do not clean the appliance with aggressive chemicals or abrasives so as not to
damage the stainless steel surface.
