USE OF THE APPLIANCE; ATTENTION! 

Before first use: 

 

  Unpack the appliance. 

  Wash all parts of the appliance 

  Before use, make sure that the electric parameters of your dehydrator, as 

indicated  on  the  rating  label  found  on  the  base  of  the  appliance,  are 
suitable for the mains supply. 

  Wash the lids and parts of the appliance.  Wash the parts in warm  water, 

adding a small quantity of detergent for washing dishes. Clean the power 
base  using  a  damp  cloth,  (NEVER  SUBMERSE  THE  BASE  IN  ANY 
LIQUID). 

 

FUNCTIONS 

 
Warm  air  of  a  fixed,  controllable  temperature  circulates  freely  inside  the 
appliance  between  the  upper  and  lower  lids,  the  separately  controllable, 
removable sections and the power base. This causes the foods placed on the 
sections  of  the  appliance  to  dry  evenly  and  without  the  loss  vitamins.  This 
allows  you  to  enjoy  fruits,  vegetables  and  mushrooms,  which  have  been 
prepared without unhealthy additives, all year round. 
You can also dry flowers or medicinal plants, and prepare cereals with the help 
of this appliance. 
 
This  Dehydrator  has  a  temperature  gauge 

–  below  is  a  rough  guideline  for 

drying temperatures: 
 
Herbs 

–          35°-40°C 

Greens 

–          40°C 

Vegetables 

–    50°-55°C 

Fruits -   

 

55°-60°C 

Meat/Fish -   

65°-70°C 

 
(Meat and fish should always be dried on the highest temperature for reasons 
of food safety). 

USE OF THE APPLIANCE 

1.  Prepare the food that you intend to dry by slicing thinly and evenly. Then 

place  the  food  onto  the  trays  of  the  appliance.  Ensure  that  there  is 
adequate  spacing  between  each  piece  of  food.  We  recommend 
approximately 0.5cm.
