To install the dehydration trays (2), proceed as follows:
1. Place the prepared food on the dehydration tray (2).
2. Place the first dehydration tray (2) on the base unit (4).
3. If you have filled further dehydration trays (2) with food, place the second dehydration tray (2) on top of
the first. Repeat this process with all additional dehydration trays (2) that you have prepared with food.
4. Place the lid (1) on the top dehydration tray (2).
5. Check that all dehydration trays (2) are seated correctly on each other and have not slipped out of
place. Otherwise, they may tip over or affect the results of the dehydration process.
6. Start the dehydration process. Refer to the following section "Switching on and programming the dehydrator".
Switching on and programming the dehydrator
After you have prepared and set up the dehydrator as described in the previous sections, you can
dehydrate your food. The procedure is as follows:
1. Plug the power cable (3) into a wall outlet.
You will then hear a short acoustic signal and "

" flashes on the display (5).
2. Press the Start/Reset button (8). The default time "10:00" is shown on the display.
3. Press the Timer button (9). The time display flashes.
4. Press the – (6) button and + button (10) repeatedly until the required dehydration time is set (see the
recommendations on page 89). After approx. 2 seconds, the selected value is set.
5. Press the Temp button (7). The temperature display flashes. Press the – (6) button and + button (10)
repeatedly until the required dehydration temperature is set (see the recommendations on page 89).
After approx. 2 seconds, the selected value is set.
During operation, a fan runs that creates the air flow in the dehydration trays (2). You may
hear an occasional clicking sound during operation. This is caused by the temperature
changes and the heating unit switching on/off. These noises are not caused by a malfunction.
The display (5) now shows the remaining time until the appliance switches off. After the countdown
has completed, the appliance switches off. You will then hear five short acoustic signals and "

flashes on the display (5).

If necessary, you can subsequently adjust the dehydration temperature and time without
having to switch off the appliance. To do this, press the Temp button (7) or Timer button
(9) followed by the - button (6) or + button (10) until the required value is set.

You can stop the dehydration process at any time. To do this, press the Start/Reset
button (8) and hold for approx. 5 seconds. You will then hear a short acoustic signal and
"--:--" flashes on the display (5).
