10. When the set time counts down to "0:00”, the heating element stops but the fan will continue running for ten (10)
seconds and the buzzer will beep 20 times (once per second). The LED screen display “End” meaning the drying
process
is
complete.
Note: Make sure that the fan base is always in place when operating the dehydrator. If you do not have time to dry all the
food in one day, you can dry them the next day. In this case, you should store the food in a container/polyethylene bag and
put it in the freezer.
11. Unplug the unit from the wall outlet.
Recommendations
1. Check your food every hour.
2. Label food according contents dried, date and weight before drying. It is also helpful to note the drying time for
future
reference.
3. Pretreated food will dry best.
4. Correct food storage after drying also will help to keep food in good quality and save the nutrients.
Drying Tips
Drying time for pre-treated fruit will vary according to the following factors:
1. Thickness of pieces or slices
2. Number of trays with food being dried
3. Volume of food being dried
4. Moisture or humidity in your environment
5. Your preferences of drying for each type of dried food
Food Storage Tips
1. Store food only after allowing it to cool.
2. Food will last longer if stored in a cool, dry and dark place.
3. Remove as much air as possible from the storage container and close tightly.
4. Optimal storage temperature is 59°F or lower.
5. Never store food in a metal container.
6. Avoid containers that “breathe” or have a weak seal.
7.
Check the contents of your dried food for moisture periodically after dehydration. If there is moisture inside,
dehydrate the contents for a longer time to avoid spoiling.
8. For best quality, dried fruit, vegetables, herbs, nuts, bread should not be kept for more than one (1) year, if kept in
the refrigerator or freezer.
9. Dried meats, poultry and fish should be stored for no more than three (3) months if kept in the refrigerator, or
one (1) year if kept in the freezer.
