How to Load Trays and Screens
Always place food in a single
layer on each tray for even drying.
Do not overlap fruits, vegetables,
or meats or crowd trays.
If using a mesh screen, place
screen in tray before adding food.
For best results, only use mesh
screens in the top two trays.
Use the mesh screen for drying
herbs and small pieces of fruits or
vegetables.
Use the fruit roll sheet for drying
purees from fruits.
If using the fruit roll sheet, place sheet in the top tray. For best results,
do not use more than two fruit roll sheets and place in the top two
trays. Always stack the top tray last, before the lid, for proper drying.
Dehydrator Preparation
• The top tray must always be
in the top position for proper
drying.
• All five trays should be used
during each drying, even if
some are empty.
• It is best to dry one type
of similar food at a time;
for example, all fruits or all
vegetables.
• Always leave trays in place
until drying is complete. You
may remove food from trays
when acceptably dried.
