Other Consumer Safety Information

This product is intended for household use only.

CAUTION: In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of

the thermal cut-out, this appliance must not be supplied through an

external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit

that is regularly switched on and off by the utility.

The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce

the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord. If

a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be used.

The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater

than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken to arrange

the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or

tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped

over.

To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another high-

wattage appliance on the same circuit with this appliance.

How to Load Trays and Screens

Always place food in a single

layer on each tray for even drying.

Do not overlap fruits, vegetables,

or meats or crowd trays.

If using a mesh screen, place

screen in tray before adding food.

For best results, only use mesh

screens in the top two trays.

Use the mesh screen for drying

herbs and small pieces of fruits or

vegetables.

Use the fruit roll sheet for drying

purees from fruits.

If using the fruit roll sheet, place sheet in the top tray. For best results,

do not use more than two fruit roll sheets and place in the top two

trays. Always stack the top tray last, before the lid, for proper drying.

Dehydrator Preparation

• The top tray must always be

in the top position for proper

drying.

• All five trays should be used

during each drying, even if

some are empty.

• It is best to dry one type

of similar food at a time;

for example, all fruits or all

vegetables.

• Always leave trays in place

until drying is complete. You

may remove food from trays

when acceptably dried.

Food Safety Tips

• For food safety, to help ensure any bacteria present are destroyed,

choose pretreatment or post treatment from below:

• Pretreatment of Meat Prior to Dehydrating – Heat oven to 175°C.

Drain and discard marinade from meat. Pat dry with paper towels

and place meat in a single layer, leaving a space around each

piece on baking sheet. Bake 5 to 10 minutes or until internal

temperature reaches 70°C. Poultry must reach 75°C. NOTE: This

method may reduce drying time and may result in a drier texture.

• Post Treatment of Meat After Dehydrating – Heat oven to

135°C. Line a large baking sheet with foil. Place jerky in a single

layer, leaving a small space around each piece. Bake for 10 to 12

minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack. Pat jerky dry with paper

towels to remove any surface fats before storing.

• Marinating meats helps with the flavor and texture of jerky. Do not

marinate meat longer than recipe or package directions call for.

TIP: Post treatment of meat after dehydrating may result in a more

desirable jerky texture. Try each treatment to determine which jerky you

like best.

• Never dehydrate meats with fruits and vegetables, due to cross-

contamination of foods. Meats dry at a different temperature from

fruits or vegetables.

• All dehydrated foods must be cooled completely before storing.

• For food safety, complete the food drying process. Do not start and

stop the process for longer than 5 minutes. You may pause the

process to check on the food’s dryness or to remove dehydrated

pieces.

• Label and date all containers of dried foods.

Dehydrating Fruits and Vegetables

A. Food Preparation

• Always wash hands before starting food preparation.

• Wash all fruits and vegetables before preparation.

• Choose fruits and vegetables that are in season for the best flavor.

• Discard any fruits and vegetables that have bruises or mold.

• Cut foods the same thickness, size, or shape before drying to

ensure even drying.

• Some foods, like garlic, onions, cauliflower, and broccoli, have a

strong smell when drying.

B. Pretreatment

• Some fruits and vegetables require pretreatment before drying.

Blanch or add color protectors to preserve natural color.

How to Blanch (see *B on pages 10 and 11)

Blanching is recommended for some vegetables to help prevent

color and flavor loss during drying and storage. Blanching is

used to break the skins on some fruits to help shorten the drying

process.

• Bring a large stockpot filled with cold water to a rolling boil.

• Place cleaned fruits or vegetables in a strainer with a handle.

• Dip strainer into the boiling water for the recommended time.

• Make sure that all the fruits or vegetables are covered with water

for even blanching.

• After blanching is complete, plunge into a large bowl filled with

ice water to stop the blanching process.

• Drain and completely pat dry the fruits or vegetables before

dehydrating.

How to Protect Color (see #C on page 10)

Some fruits and potatoes may discolor during the drying process.

To protect the color, follow these steps.

• Prepare a solution of equal parts lemon juice and water.

• Dip pieces into the solution; drain.

• If using a commercial fruit preservative, follow package

directions.

C. Determining Dryness

• Many things influence drying time, including moisture content,

type and amount of food, shape and evenness of food slices, air

temperature, humidity, and your personal preference in texture of

your food.

• Drying charts are a guideline. Drying times and temperatures vary

for different types of foods; start checking food at the minimum

recommended time referenced on the chart. If the food is not listed

on the chart, pick a similar food.

• Combine any remaining food to upper trays for ease of checking

doneness.

• Check all trays for doneness at the minimum recommended time

on the chart.

• All fruits should be able to bend and be slightly soft but not be

tacky, except for apples and bananas which should be crisp.

• All vegetables should be crisp and easily broken.

Dehydrating Fruits and Vegetables

(cont.)

D. Drying Fruit Rolls

• Fruit rolls can be made with peeled and pitted pureed fresh fruits;

canned fruit that has been well drained and pureed; defrosted

frozen fruit, drained and pureed; or with store-bought applesauce.

• Fruits that are higher in pectin (apples, apricots, blueberries,

grapes, peaches, pears, pineapples, and plums) will make a fruit

roll with a nice leatherlike texture.

• When using a low-pectin fruit (grapefruits, lemons, limes, oranges,

raspberries, and strawberries), combine with a higher-pectin fruit

for an easy peelable fruit roll.

• Lightly spray the fruit roll lightly grease with vegetable oil before

adding your pureed fruit.

• Evenly spread about 3/4 cup to 1 cup (177 ml to 237 ml) puree on

the prepared fruit roll sheet about 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) thick.

• Add the fruit roll sheet to one of the top two trays for drying.

• Fruit rolls should be checked for doneness starting at 4 hours.

• Fruit rolls will be slightly tacky when dried.

• Always remove the fruit roll from the sheet after cooling for 15

minutes.

• The fruit roll should be slightly warm to easily remove from the fruit

roll sheet.

• Once rolled up, cool completely before storing in an airtight

container.

Storing Dehydrated Food

• Dehydrated foods have to be cooled completely before packaging.

• Properly dried foods need to be stored in a clean, dry, airtight

container, such as resealable plastic bags, plastic containers, or glass

canning jars with a tight-fitting lid, to keep foods from rehydrating.

• Store all packages in a cool, dry place.

• Dried fruits stored at 16°C may keep up to 1 year, while vegetables

stored at 16°C may keep up to 6 months.

• Fruit rolls stored at room temperature may keep up to 1 month, if

stored properly.

• If jerky has been properly dried, cooled, and packaged, it may be

stored up to 2 months in an airtight container at room temperature.

• Storing at higher temperature locations will shorten the storing time.

Place packaged foods in the freezer for a longer storing time.

• It is a good practice to check dehydrated foods daily. Dehydrate

again if you see fruits and vegetables getting soft or if they have

condensation on them. Check frequently during the additional

drying, since this process will be much shorter.

• Always check the condition of your food prior to consumption.

When in doubt, throw it out.
