Dehydrated vegetables can be used in soups, stewed meat dishes, made into
vegetables platers, or used as dry refreshments.
■
Reconstituted vegetables can be use in your favourite recipes like meat cakes and
other main dishes, in jellies or vegetable salads.
■
Crushed dehydrated vegetables are an excellent ingredient for meat bouillon, soups
and sauces.
■
For optimal retention of nutritional values, we recommend:
- adhere to the correct pre-cooking time.
- package dehydrated food correctly and store in containers in a cool, dry and dark
place.
- regularly inspect stored foods, checking for absorption of moisture.
- consume dehydrated foods as soon as possible.
- when cooking reconstituted food, use the soaking solution.
OVERHEATING PROTECTION
■
The food dehydrator is equipped with an overheating protection fuse. If as a result
of, for example incorrectly arranged food, the temperature rises too high, the food
dehydrator will turn off automatically. In such a case, pull out the power plug and
allow the food dehydrator to cool down. Then you can put into operation again.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Attention:
Before performing any maintenance and cleaning, always
turn off the food dehydrator using button
B4
(START/STOP)
and disconnect it from the power grid.
Do not use thinners or solvents or any abrasive cleaning
agents to clean the appliance, they may damage the surface.
Neither the food dehydrator nor the power cord may be
submerged in water.
■
Clean the surface of the dehydrator with a lightly dampened cloth and then dry it.
■
To clean the individual food trays, use a cloth dipped in ordinary dishwashing
detergent. In the event of greater soiling, you may wash the individual trays under
lukewarm running water. Trays can also be washed in a dishwasher.
■
The air inlet (grille) on the motor part must unconditionally be clean, with free
access for air. In the event that the grille becomes dirty or clogged with dust, clean it
using a brush or vacuum out the dirt with a vacuum cleaner.
STORAGE
When not using the dehydrator for an extended period of time, do the following:
■
Clean the dehydrator as described in chapter Cleaning and maintenance.
■
Place the dehydrator in a safe, dust-free, clean and dry place that is out of reach
of children.
■
If storage space permits, we recommend storing the dehydrator with the door ajar
in order to prevent undesirable odours forming inside.
