Assembly & Use Instructions:
Once you have washed your Food Dehydrator as directed, follow the steps
below:
1. Place the heating base on a flat surface, such as a table or counter top.
It is important that the ventilation holes in the bottom of the unit do
not get covered or blocked.
2. Do not set the dehydrator
on a carpeted surface or rug.
This could restrict proper
air circulation and cause
overheating and damage to
the unit, and result in a risk
of fire. (See the diagram at
right for proper air flow in the
Dehydrator.)
3. Prepare your food items as
directed in the following sections of this manual.
4. Fill Trays with evenly cut or sliced food pieces. If food is not
prepared in equal thickness, it will not dry evenly and can mold
or spoil quickly.
5. Do not overfill the drying trays. This could keep air from
circulating and lengthen the drying time significantly. It is best to
place the food pieces close together, but
not touching or overlapping.
6. Stack the trays as shown in the diagram on
the right, with the tab on the tray above
resting on the small ‘block’ on the tray
below. This extended height allows the
air to flow freely around the food on each
tray to aid efficient drying.
