Before First Use

1. Read all instructions and important safeguards.

2. Remove all packaging materials and make sure items are received in good

condition.

3. Tear up all plastic bags as they may pose a risk to children.

4. Wash all trays and accessories in warm, soapy water.  Rinse and dry

thoroughly.

5. Wipe down dehydrator base with a damp cloth.

Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.

Do not immerse the dehydrator base, cord, or plug in water at any 

time.

1. Plug the dehydrator into a functioning electrical outlet.

2. Place items to be dehydrated on the stackable trays.  Position the pieces so

that they are not touching each other or the other trays.  This is because air

needs to flow freely for proper drying.

NOTE:Trays have two height options.  Depending on the thickness of the 

food that is to be dehydrated set the trays to either “tall” or 

“short.”

3. Turn on the dehydrator by pressing the “On/Off” button.

4. Set  the  desired  temperature  by  pressing  the  “Temp”  button  (temperature

ranges between 86-176

º

F).  Hold button to quickly scroll through, push and

release to toggle slower.

5. Set the desired dehydrating time by pressing the “Timer” button (timer may

be  set  between  1-72  hours).    Hold  button  down  to  scroll  fast,  push  and

release to toggle slowly.

6. Allow  the  Digital  Food  Dehydrator  to  run  for  the  time  designated  by  your

recipe.

7. Depending on personal preferences and what is being dried, you may need to

rotate the trays once or twice during the dehydration process.

8. Remove pieces immediately once they are done, and enjoy!

Temperature

When setting the temperature, it is best to find a happy medium.  While higher

temperatures lead to lower drying times, if the heat is too great it may affect

the quality.  High temperatures can lead to case hardening, where the outer

portions of your food are dry, but the inside remains moist.  Temperatures that

are too low will take a long time to dry, and in doing so use much more

electricity than necessary.

RREECCIIPPEESS

Marinated “Sun-Dried” Tomatoes

Makes approx. 

¼

lb.

Dehydrated plum tomatoes are the next best things to sun-dried tomatoes

and make great marinated tomatoes, which can be used in pasta dishes, salads,

pizzas, omelets or other savory hot dishes.

1 lb. dried plum tomatoes

1 tsp. dried basil

1 tsp. minced garlic

Pepper; to taste

6 juniper berries, or 1 sprig rosemary (optional)

Olive Oil

Pack dried tomatoes, basil, garlic, pepper and juniper berries (if using) in a

large glass jar.  Cover with olive oil, seal well and refrigerate for 1 month.  When

ready to use, let jar stand at room temperature until olive oil clears and

becomes liquidy.  Drain off olive oil and cut tomatoes into strips with scissors or

a knife.  You can use the flavored olive oil in salad dressing or to flavor pasta

dishes.

Nectarine Cordial

Makes 1

½

quarts

Cordials are generally served as an after-dinner drink.  They make great

home-made gifts.

1 lb. dried nectarines

2 cups sugar

1 cup brandy

3

½

cups dry white wine

Cover tightly and let stand at room temperature in a dark place for at least 1

week.  Swirl mixture occasionally.  Remove fruit when it appears to be turning

mushy, usually after about 4 weeks.  Strain mixture, discard fruit and transfer

cordial to sterilized decorative bottles.  Label bottles clearly.
