HOW TO USE
1. Before using your Salton Food Dehydrator read this Instruction
Booklet.
2. Prepare the food according to its type (See the sections in the
following pages for fruits, vegetables, etc.). Arrange food on
Dehydrator Trays. Food should be placed on the Dehydrator Trays so
the slices are not overlapping. Foods that take a longer period of time
to dry (consult the Drying Tables) should be placed near the bottom of
the Dehydrator Tray stack. For larger items the distance between the
Trays can be increased by lining up the 6 tabs on the underside of the
Tray with the 6 Tab supports on the top of the Tray.
3. Put the Dehydrator Trays aside.
4. Place the Base on a fl at, smooth heatproof surface. Plug into wall
outlet, press the On/Off switch to ‘I’ (On) and preheat for 5 minutes.
5. Place full Dehydrator Trays on the Base. Cover with Lid and allow
food to dry for the recommended drying times in the Drying Charts.
NOTE: All 5 trays should be placed on the Dehydrator Base even if
some of them are empty. Put full trays at the bottom of the tray stack.
Always use the Dehydrator Cover. Begin to check on food before the
dehydration time is complete.
6. When dehydration is completed remove individual pieces and store
in containers or food bags (See the Packing and Storage Section).
If some pieces are not yet done, leave them on the dehydrator and
check frequently until all food dehydration is complete.
