  • Page 2: Important Safeguards

    IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed as below: Read all instructions carefully. To protect against risk of electrical shock, do not put the base, cord & plug in water or other liquid. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. Unplug from outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
  • Page 3 POLARIZE PLUG & SHORT CORD SAFETY Polarized Plug: This appliance is for Household Use Only. Place it on a level surface, and insert plug into any 120-volt AC electrical outlet. Do not use any other type of outlet. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug fits in a polarized outlet only one way.
  • Page 4 PREPARATION & PRETREATMENT OF VEGETABLES: Vegetables dried at home require a little more effort in processing and storage than do fruits because they are low in acid and have little sugar. Some vegetables have a poor quality when dehydrated, and are better frozen than dried. Others, such as potatoes, are available at reasonable prices all year round, and it may not be worth your time to dry them unless they are used for lightweight camping.
  • Page 5 PREPARATION & PRETREATMENT OF FRUITS: Almost all fruits are suitable for drying at home, but some fruits will require more drying time than others; the guidelines offered in this manual will help you get started. Some fruits might not be suitable for drying all year round, so it will be helpful to learn which fruits are in season and experiment with those first.
  • Page 6: Helpful Hints

    MEAT DRYING PREPERATION Normally raw meat is used for making jerky. However, cooked meat as well as raw meat can be dehydrated. Make sure to always cut meat down to bite size before dehydration. It is much easier to work with beforehand. Be extra careful when making jerky from raw chicken or turkey because salmonella bacteria may be present in poultry when it is purchased.
  • Page 7: Food Storage

    FOOD STORAGE Packaging: DRIED FOODS MUST BE PROPERLY PACKAGED IN ORDER TO KEEP WELL. Package your dried foods in freezer plastic bags, squeezing out as much air as possible. Heat-sealable bags may also be used. Store the plastic bags inside of airtight metal, plastic or glass containers.
