Dehydrate
Use Dehydrate to dry and/or preserve foods such as fruits, vegetables and herbs.
This mode holds an optimum low temperature (100 ºF – 160 ºF) while circulating the
heated air to slowly remove moisture. The oven stays on for 48 hours before
shutting off automatically.
Tips: • Dry most fruits and vegetables at 140 ºF. Dry herbs at 100 ºF (refer to the
Dehydrate Chart for examples).
• Drying times vary depending on the moisture and sugar content of the food, the
size of the pieces, the amount being dried and the humidity in the air. Check
food at the minimum drying time.
• Multiple drying racks (not included) can be used simultaneously.
• Treat fruits with antioxidants to avoid discoloration.
• Consult a food preservation book, county Cooperative Extension Office or
library for additional information.
Dehydrate Chart
Dehydrate dries with heat from a third element behind the back wall of the oven.
The heat is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan.
