Use & Care Manual
DRYING AND DEHYDRATING
The United States Department of Agriculture advises: DO NOT hold foods at temperature between 40ºF to 140ºF more than two
hours – and cooking raw foods below 275ºF is not recommended, the low setting of the oven (ranging from 150ºF to 225ºF)
may be used to keep food hot and in special recipes, used to dehydrate fruits and vegetables.
During dehydration, the convection fans circulates hot air over the food, causes moisture to escape from the food surface – generally
drying it out. This removal of water inhibits growth of microorganisms and slows down the activity of enzymes. Starting with only the
freshest, best quality food items, prepare as directed and:
• Place the food on drying racks spaced evenly in the oven cavity.
• Set the temperature control to 200ºF and switch on the convection fan.
• Remember to periodically check the food items for dryness state.
DEFROST
To speed the defrost process, place in oven and select FAN. This will defrost without cooking. Remember, it is best to defrost in the
refrigerator, but sometimes it becomes an issue of speed.
