FUNCTIONS
Hot air at fixed and adjustable temperature freely circulates inside the unit between the top and
bottom cover, the removable drying trays and the main unit. This allows the food placed in the
trays to be dried evenly without losing its nutritional properties and at the same time without
unhealthy additives.
You can also dry flowers or medicinal herbs and prepare cereals using this device. This
dehydrator is provided with a temperature controller: the below table is an indication of the
approximate drying temperatures.
