    SET UP & USE SELECTING FOODS TO DRY • Foods that are ripe and high in quality will provide the best flavor. • Fruits such as apples, pears and peaches are best dehydrated after they have been pre-treated. To pre-treat, you can soak fruit in fruit juice such as orange, lemon or lime or alternatively blanch or steam the fruit.
  • Page 8 SET UP & USE TO BEGIN USE 1. Place the food flat on the trays. Do not completely cover the bottom of the tray as this will stop the air circulation. Overloading the trays or placing the food on top of each other will reduce the efficiency of the dehydrator.
  • Page 9 SET UP & USE • Foods such as onions and tomatoes quickly absorb moisture from the air and should be immediately packed after removing them from the dehydrator. • During the first week after drying, it is better to check if there is any moisture present in the container.
