How to use

Arrange sliced or prepared food in a single layer on the removable trays, leaving space for airflow between pieces. Set the desired temperature between 40 and 70 °C depending on the food type and thickness, then program the timer via the LCD display for the estimated drying duration. Start the dehydrator and periodically check progress through the drying cycle; rotate or rearrange trays if needed for highly uneven loads. After completion, allow the product to cool before storing in airtight containers.

Usage recommendations

For best results, pre-treat fruits and vegetables as required (blanching or sulfuring for some varieties) and slice items uniformly to ensure even drying. Use lower temperatures (around 40–50 °C) for delicate herbs and higher settings (55–70 °C) for thicker pieces or meats. Clean trays after each use and store dried goods in moisture-proof packaging to extend shelf life.
