INTRODUCTION
Food Dehydration
Food dehydrating is done primarily to increase preservation time. Dried food can be eaten
“as is” for convenient snacks and lunches or used in the preparation of meals. Your food
dehydrator provides a fast, economical way to dehydrate food. We encourage you to
experiment by drying different types of food. In so doing, you will discover a whole
different world of taste and texture.
How To Use
1. Before using your SUNBEAM
®
Food Dehydrator, carefully read the instruction manual
and thoroughly wash the trays and top lid of the dehydrator according to the cleaning
instructions.
2. Prepare the food, according to its type, as indicated in the “Timetable”
on Pages 18 and 19.
3. Load the trays with the prepared food. Remember that it is the hot air circulation
that dries the food, so do not overload the trays and never overlap the food.
4. Dry for the period of time suggested in the “Timetable” on Pages 18 and 19,
keeping in mind that the times listed are approximate. (See “Drying Tips” on Page 14)
5. Once dried, allow the food to cool. Immediately store the food items in bags or
containers and place in the refrigerator. (See “Storage” on Page 14)
Cleaning Instructions
1. Prior to any cleaning operation, always unplug the unit from the wall outlet.
2. To clean the trays and top lid wash them in warm water and soap. DO NOT USE
SCORING PADS OR ANY ABRASIVE CLEANERS. The trays and top lid can be safely
washed in the TOP RACK of the dishwasher, BUT NOT THE FRUIT ROLL-UP SHEET,
as it will not withstand the high temperature reached by today’s dishwashers.
3. Wipe the base clean with a damp cloth. DO NOT IMMERSE IN WATER.
4. Use paper towels or napkins to remove any excess marinade.
