Dehydrate
Dehydrate dries heat with a third element behind the
back wall of the oven. The heat is circulated throughout
the oven by the convection fan.
Use Dehydrate to dry and/or preserve foods such as
fruits, vegetables and herbs. The oven stays on 24 hours
before shutting off automatically.
Tips:
▯ Dry most fruits and vegetables at 150°F (65°C). Dry
herbs at 100°F (40°C). Refer to the Dehydrate chart
for examples.
▯ Drying times vary depending on the moisture and
sugar content of the food, the size of the pieces, the
amount being dried and the humidity in the air. Check
food at minimum drying time.
▯ Multiple drying racks (not included) can be used
simultaneously.
▯ Treat fruits with antioxidants to avoid discoloration.
