BEFORE FIRST USE
Before using the machine for the first
time:
1. Start the empty machine and allow it
to run while empty for 30 minutes.
2. Then rinse the 5 drying trays - never
rinse the entire machine - with water and dry them with a towel.
3. The machine is now ready for use. (This is only necessary the very first time you
use the machine, after you have unpacked it.)
USE
Preparation
1. Wash the food and pat it dry with a towel or paper towel.
2. Peeling the food prior to drying it does decrease the drying time, but it also results
in the loss of valuable vitamins and minerals.
3. Cut the food into pieces, slices or strips of approximately the same size and
thickness. Remove seeds, pits, etc. if necessary. Cut away any damaged or bruised
areas.
4. Hard food (e.g. hard vegetables) and vegetables that may not be consumed raw
are best if blanched* first, so that it is semi-soft prior to drying. This decreases
the drying time and ensures that less vitamins are lost. Make sure that the food is
sufficiently dried prior to drying it.
*Blanching is also a cooking technique where food is cooked for a short time,
then put in or rinsed with cold water so that the cooking process is interrupted.
Blanching is always done without a lid.
Filling the drying trays
1. Divide the food evenly over the drying trays. Do not allow pieces to overlap.
2. Make sure that only 90% of the drying trays are covered, in order to allow for
good air circulation.
3. For the best results: remove the drying trays you do not need.
4. Depending on the size of the food, the trays can be adjusted in height by giving
the tray a half turn.
