Dehydrating Guide (upper oven only on double oven models)
Dehydrate is a special convection mode that is designed
for dehydrating foods such as fruits, vegetables or herbs,
and making fruit leathers or jerkies. The dehydrate mode
uses airflow and low heat to remove moisture from
foods. The door must be partially open when running
with your oven to prop the door open to the appropriate
position as shown below. Once the door prop is in place,
select More, then Dehydrate, then input the desired
set temperature and press Start. The temperature can
be set between 105°F and 225°F. When the dehydrate
mode is running, 12 hour shut-off is automatically
disabled.
