WARNING:
Before you operate a new unit, leave it assembled and turned on without fruit for about 30 minutes. Clean the unit
afterwards using a wet cloth for sanitary reasons, and wash the drying screens in warm water.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The unit is designed to dry food (fruit, vegetables, herbs, flowers, mushrooms, meat, etc.).
Water is evaporated during the drying process. The unit works on the principle of direct flow of hot air, which means
the food is not overheated, and is dried evenly.
If you put cut pieces of fruit in a weak solution of lemon juice, it will keep its bright colour, and not go brown.
You may put hard vegetables (carrot, celery) in hot water for 1-2 minutes before drying, and then drain them. They
will retain their taste, and the drying will take less time.
1. Wash and dry fruits or vegetables first. Cut away any poor quality pieces (half-rotten, bruised, etc.). To speed up the
process, you can stone the fruit, cut out the core or peel the skin. You can dip the fruit in honey, herbs or juice to
adjust the flavour to your liking.
2. Cut the food into slices, and arrange the slices on drying screens in an even manner. Do not overlap the slices; there
should be a tiny space between them. To allow sufficient airflow, leave at least 10% of the drying screen surface
free.
3. You can improve the airflow and shorten the process by removing empty screens. However, always leave at least 5
screens in the appliance. Always use the lid.
