Proof (Some Models)

In Proof, the appliance uses the upper and lower
elements to maintain a low temperature to proof bread or
other yeast doughs.
Proofing is the rising of yeast dough.
The Proof mode temperature is 85°F to 110 °F (29 °C
to 43 °C).
The default temperature in Proof mode is 100 °F
(38 °C).
Loosely cover the bowl or pan and use any rack that
accommodates the size of the container.
Keep the door closed and use the oven light to check
the rising of the dough.

Dehydrate

:
Dehydrate dries with heat from 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. This mode holds an
optimum low temperature of 100 °F to 160 °F (38 °C to
71 °C) while circulating the heated air to slowly remove
moisture. The oven stays on for 48 hours before shutting
off automatically.
Tips
Dry most fruits and vegetables at 140 °F (60 °C). Dry
herbs at 100 °F (38 °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 the minimum drying time.
Multiple drying racks (not included) can be used
simultaneously.
Treat fruits with antioxidants to avoid discoloration.
Consult a food preservation book, county Cooperative
Extension Office or library for additional information.
