Use and operation
Before using the appliance for the first time,
disassemble it and wash all parts that come
into contact with the processed food products
(see „Cleaning and Maintenance”). Reassemble
once dry.

a wall socket.

in the extended position 3b on the heat and ventilation
unit 1 . Apply the lid

. To extend the trays, rotate them 90
degrees relative to each other so that a large gap is visible
between them.
Distribute food products loosely on trays,
making sure not to block the airflow through the
trays. Choose the number of trays according to
the amount of food you intend to dry.
Dehydration is achieved by the circulation
of hot air through the trays. The drying time
depends on the content of water in products
and their fragmentation. For example, when
drying apples, it is recommended to use slices
not thicker than 5 mm.
