Before first use of your dehydrator, heat the unit at 35°C for 45 minutes to remove any
moisture;
If the unit stops for any reason, turn off, unplug and then repeat Steps 3 and 4. If the unit
continues to not operate normally, turn off, unplug and call Vita5;
Follow your recipe to prepare the food that you wish to dehydrate;
Using oven mitts slide the dehydrator trays out of the unit and load the product to be
dehydrated onto the trays; For best results: Do not overlap the product and be sure to
leave space between the items to allow for maximum air circulation.
Using both hands for maximum stability, gently slide the dehydrator trays back into the
unit;
Once the door is closed, press the power button and follow the instructions in this
manual to set the time and temperature. Monitor the internal temperature and adjust as
needed;
Moisture may collect on the surface of the food; this can be blotted off with a paper
towel;
The Stainless Steel Trays are dishwasher safe. The drip tray, mesh and non-stick sheets are
not dishwasher safe. Make sure the trays and drying sheets are thoroughly dried before
inserting them back into the dehydrator.
To clean the exterior and interior of the main body, use a damp cloth.
