Operating tips
Guidelines for food preparation
• For the reason of safe and hygienic preservation, wash all the
food well before drying.
• Only process non-perished food, any blemishes are to be re-
moved generously.
• Dehydration results are more even if the food is cut into piec-
es of roughly the same size.
• To reduce the desiccating time, cut the food in thinner slices
or pieces.
• The prepared food is to be desiccated in a continuous process.
Do not interrupt the dehydrating process.
Approximate dehydration time and particular food prepara-
tion guidelines
• The time required for dehydrating is greatly dependent on
the kind of food to be dried, their moisture content, ripeness,
thickness, temperature setting and humidity of the inside
chamber.
• Drying time will vary according to the following factors:
- thickness of the food
- number of trays in use
- volume of food being dried
- moisture or humidity in your environment
- your preferences of drying for each type of dried food.
• It is recommended that:
- through the transparent damper door, you check the food
condition regularly (e.g. every hour) to control the process.
Note the drying time for future reference.
- pre-treated food will have the best drying results
- after drying, store the food to preserve quality and nutrients.
- Always work within the food preparation regulations to pre-
vent the contamination of harmful bacteria within the dried
food.
Storing of dried food
• Allow the dried food to cool well before storing. Also make
sure that they are absolutely dry. This is essential for proper
storage.
• To prevent deterioration, dried food must be prevented from
absorbing humidity during storage. Therefore, any storage
tins, glasses or plastic bags should be sealed airtight. Vac-
uum packaging would be the appropriate storage method.
• Desiccated food should be stored in a dry, cool and clean area
to ensure a long storage time.

push the appliance under the water as the parts will get wet
and electric shock might be resulted.
• If the appliance is not kept in a good state of cleanliness, this
can adversely affect the life of the appliance and result in a
dangerous situation.

been disconnected from the power supply and completely
cooled down.
• Store the appliance in a cool, clean and dry place.
