THE UNIT IS INTENDED FOR HOUSEHOLD USAGE

ONLY

Before the first use

After unit transportation or storage at low

temperature it is necessary to keep it for at

least 3 hours at room temperature before

switching on.

–

Remove all stickers and packaging elements

that can prevent unit operation.

–

Make sure that unit operating voltage

corresponds to voltage of your mains.

–

Wash the trays for dehydration (5) and the lid (6)

with warm water and neutral detergent, dry them

thoroughly.

–

Wipe the unit body (1) with a damp cloth and

then wipe dry.

Attention! Never immerse the unit body into

water or other liquids. Provide that water does

not get into the ventilation openings of the unit

body.

Using the unit

Note: During the first operation some foreign smell

from the heating element is possible, this is normal.

–

Before dehydration wash the products, dry them

and cut into small pieces.

–

Put the products on the trays for dehydration (5)

providing space for hot air circulation between

the pieces. Remember that hot air should

circulate freely in the trays (5).

–

Install the trays (5) on one another. Install all the

5 trays even if some of them are empty.

Note:

–

If you use very thin slices of products, install the

trays (5) on one another;

–

when dehydrating thicker slices rotate the upper

tray (5) to 180° relative to the bottom tray (5);

–

if you need to dehydrate an even thicker product,

you can remove one or more detachable grids

inside the trays (5).

–

Cover the trays (5) with the lid (6).

–

Insert the power plug into the mains socket.

–

Set the required heating temperature using the

knob (4). Set low temperature if the pieces are

thin and small or if some trays (4) are empty.

Set high temperature for thick and big pieces

(see chapter «Temperature and duration of

dehydration»).

–

Switch the unit on by pressing the power switch

button (2), the light indicator (3) will light up.

Note: This dehydrator works on the principle of

natural air convection, so the ingredients located

on the lower trays are exposed to hotter and drier

air and so they are dried faster. For the best results

of dehydration we recommend to place moister

food on the lower trays and interchange the lower

and upper trays periodically. Before interchanging

the trays switch the unit off by pressing the power

switch button (2).

–

After you finish dehydrating the products, switch

the unit off by pressing the power switch button

(2) and unplug the unit.

Notes:

–

Check food readiness every hour. If products

are dried unevenly, you can turn them or

interchange the trays (5) for more even

dehydration.

–

Time of drying for every type of product is set

individually and depends on the quality and

size of the used food products, temperature

and relative humidity of the room. For further

information see chapter «Temperature and time

of dehydration».

–

Let the unit and dried products cool down.

–

Pack the ready products into packages or jars,

put away for storage (see chapter «Storage of

food»).

To avoid food intoxication and intestinal diseases

strictly follow the recommendations below.
