How To Operate Your Food Dehydrator
.
The GZ 550 gives the user full control over the temperature in a range of 40-70OC as well as how long
the unit will run using its integral digital timer. Use ower temperatures and shorter times for thinner or
smaller pieces of food or for smaller loads of food (such as when drying only a few trays). Use higher
temperatures and longer times for thicker foods and larger loads. The temperature control can also be
used to turn down the temperature as the food is near the end of its drying cycle making it easier to
control the final moisture level in the food
