About dehydrate

The dehydrate feature dries with heat from the convection element. The heat is circulated throughout the oven by the convection fan. Use dehydrate to dry and/or preserve foods such as fruits, vegetables, herbs and very thin slices of meat. Dehydrate may be set in the upper oven only. The Convection fan may operate while dehydrating.

The following temperature settings apply to the dehydrate feature:

•Auto-suggest (default) setting: 120°F/48°C

•Min. dehydrate setting: 100°F / 38°C

•Max. dehydrate setting: 225°F / 108°C

For best results

•Dry most fruits and vegetables at 140°F. Dry herbs at 100°f.

•Drying times vary depending on the moisture and sugar content of the food, the size of the pieces, the amount being dried and the humidity in the air.

•Treat fruits with antioxidants to avoid discoloration.

•Tightly woven cooling racks can be used to allow the air to circulate around the food; or use drying racks to allow the air to circulate around the food (this type of oven rack is not supplied with this appliance).

•Consult a food preservation book or library for information.
