NOTICE: Before putting the new appliance into operation, we recommend leaving it assembled and switched on
without fruit for about 30 minutes. Then, for hygienic reasons, wipe the outside of the appliance with a damp cloth
and wash the drying sieves in warm water. When using the dehydrator for the first time, the smoke or odour produced
during this process is normal. Ensure adequate ventilation.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The appliance is designed to dry foods (fruits, vegetables, herbs, flowers, mushrooms, meat, etc.).
Water evaporates during food drying. The appliance uses the principle of an even flow of warm air ensuring that the
foods are not burnt and they are dried evenly.
If you soak the sliced fruit in a weak solution of lemon juice, it will retain its light colour and will not turn brown.
Hard vegetables (carrots, celery) can be immersed in hot water for 1-2 minutes before drying and then dried. This will
help to retain its taste and drying will take less time.
1. Only put clean foods into the trays – do not overload the trays and never overlap them. Close the door.
2. Plug in the appliance. The fruit dehydrator beeps once and the display shows "8888".
3. After 5 seconds, the appliance switches to standby mode.
Standby mode: the display will show "0000" and the TEMP/TIME button will flash.
4. Press the TEMP/TIME button, the display will flash the temperature.
Use + or - to change the temperature (temperature range -35 °C – 75 °C).
NOTE: The temperature changes in increments of 5 °C. Press and hold the + or - button to quickly change the
temperature.
5. When you have finished setting the temperature, press TEMP/TIME again to select the time.
The time will flash on the display, use + or - to change the time (time range 0:30-24:00).
NOTE: The time changes in increments of 30 minutes. Press and hold the + or - button to quickly change the time.
6. After setting the time and temperature, press the START/STOP button.
The fruit dehydrator will start to heat up. All buttons will remain lit.
The temperature and time will alternate on the display every 10 seconds.
NOTE: If you press the START/STOP button again, the fruit dehydrator stops working and after 1 minute switches
to standby mode.
NOTE: Optionally, you can change the time and temperature at any time by pressing the TEMP/TIME button.
7. When the timer runs out, the display will show "End" and the heating will turn off.
The START/STOP button will flash.
The fruit dehydrator will beep 5 times and the fan will continue to run for 10 seconds and then it stops.
8. When drying is complete, unplug the appliance from the wall outlet.
CAUTION: Foods must be sufficiently dried to prevent spoilage!
Properly dried vegetable should be dry and brittle.
Properly dried fruit should be leathery and flexible.
Properly dried mushrooms should be leathery to brittle.
Properly dried herbs should be crumbly.

STORAGE
• Store foods only after they have cooled down.
• Foods can be stored for longer if kept in a cool, dry and dark place.
• Remove all air from the storage container and seal it tightly.
• The optimum storage temperature is 15 °C or lower.
• Never store foods directly in a metal container.
• Avoid using containers that do not seal sufficiently.
• Check the contents of the dried foods for moisture within a few weeks after drying. If there is moisture inside, you
should dry the contents for a longer period of time to prevent spoilage.
• For best quality, dried fruit, vegetables, herbs, nuts and bread should not be stored for more than 1 year if kept in
the refrigerator or freezer.
• Dried meat, poultry and fish should be stored for no longer than 3 months if kept in the refrigerator, or 1 year if
kept in the freezer.
