THE UNIT IS INTENDED FOR HOUSEHOLD USAGE
ONLY
Before the first use
After unit transportation or storage at low tem-
perature keep it for at least 3 hours at room
temperature before switching on.
–
Remove all stickers and packaging elements
that can prevent unit operation.
–
Make sure that unit operating voltage corre-
sponds to voltage of your mains.
–
Wash the trays for dehydration (5) and the lid (6)
with warm water and a neutral detergent, dry
them thoroughly.
–
Wipe the unit body (1) with a damp cloth and
then wipe dry.
Attention! Never immerse the unit body into
water or other liquids. Provide that water does
not get into the ventilation openings of the unit
body.
USING THE UNIT
Note:
During the first operation some foreign smell
from the heating element is possible, this is normal.
–
Before dehydration wash the foodstuffs, dry
them and cut into small pieces.
–
Put the foodstuffs on the trays for dehydra-
tion (5) providing space for hot air circulation
between the pieces. Remember that hot air
should circulate freely in the trays (5).
–
Install the trays (5) on one another. Install all the
5 trays even if some of them are empty.
Note:
–
If you use very thin slices of products, install the
trays (5) on one another;
–
When dehydrating thicker slices rotate the
upper tray (5) to 180° relative to the bottom
tray (5);
–
If you need to dehydrate an even thicker prod-
uct, you can remove one or more detachable
grids inside the trays (5).
–
Cover the trays (5) with the lid (6).
–
Insert the power plug into the mains socket.
–
Set the required heating temperature using the
knob (4). Set low temperature if the pieces are
thin and small or if some trays (5) are empty.
Set high temperature for thick and big pieces
(see chapter «Temperature and duration of
dehydration»).
–
Switch the unit on by pressing the power switch
button (2), the light indicator (3) will light up.
Note:
This dehydrator works on the principle of
natural air convection, so the ingredients located
on the lower trays are exposed to hotter and drier
air and so they are dried faster. For the best results
of dehydration we recommend placing moister
food on the lower trays and interchange the lower
and upper trays periodically. Before interchanging
the trays switch the unit off by pressing the power
switch button (2).
–
After you finish dehydrating the products, switch
the unit off by pressing the power switch button
(2) and unplug the unit.
Notes:
–
Check food readiness every hour.
If products
are dried unevenly, you can turn them or inter-
change the trays (5) for more even dehydration.
–
Time of drying for every type of product is set
individually and depends on the quality and size
of the used food products, temperature and rel-
ative humidity of the room.
For further informa-
tion see chapter «Temperature and duration of
dehydration».
–
Let the unit and dried foodstuffs cool down.
–
Pack the ready products into packages or jars,
put away for storage (see chapter «Storage of
food»).
RECOMMENDATIONS
To avoid food intoxication and intestinal diseases
strictly follow the recommendations below.
–
Wash your hands carefully before preparing
products for dehydration.
–
Keep operating surfaces clean. Wash the trays
(5) and the lid (6) with warm water and neu-
tral detergent after every use. Do not touch the
products with bare hands if you have cuts, ulcers
on your hands or if you have any skin diseases.
–
Checking the food readiness, do not touch the
products with your hands; use a fork, a spatula
or other kitchen tools.
–
Do not allow pets to enter the kitchen during
food dehydration.
Choosing vegetables and fruit for drying
–
Use only fresh fruit or vegetables.
–
Use only ripe fruit for drying, green fruit may
acquire a foreign flavor.
–
Overripe fruit may change their color after dry-
ing.
