BEFORE FIRST USE: 

Before first use, wipe all parts of the appliance. Clean the 6 trays, transparent door and solid food 
dehydrator sheet with a lightly moistened cloth.  

After cleaning the unit must be run in for 30 minutes without placing any food inside. 

For the first use, any smoke or smells produced during this procedure are normal. Please ensure 
sufficient ventilation. After the running-in period, rinse the trays in water and allow them to dry. 

USE: 

1. Put the food on the trays. Secure the solid sheet at the bottom of the food dehydrator to catch 
loose crumbs. The solid sheet can also be used for fruit leathers, garlic powders and dehydrating 
other smaller-sized food items. Do not overload the trays and never overlap the food. Close the 
transparent door. Slide the transparent door upwards to open it. Push it down to close it. 

2. Connect the power supply. Press the power switch to ‘I’ ON position – the indicator light will light 
up red. 

3. Set the temperature dehydrator. Turn the temperature dial to your chosen temperature. 

Note: Set low temperature for thin/small pieces of food or for a small load of food. Set high 
temperature for drying thick/big pieces of food and large loads. The thermostat can also be used to 
decrease 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.
