Tray Liners
Overheat Protection
Sounds
Tips
The dehydrator comes with 2 types of tray
liners: 1 fruit roll sheets and 2 mesh screens.
1. Place a tray liner on a dehydrator tray.
Place food on the liner.
2. Once the food is dehydrated, remove
the tray and lift the tray liner out of the
tray.
3. Remove food. Bending the screen is
helpful for removing sticky foods.
• Use for making fruit rolls and strips from
fresh, frozen, or canned fruit. You can
also use this liner for pouring purée onto
a tray.
• Use for foods that shrink when dried.
This liner will prevent them from falling
through tray grates.
• Overheating is rare. If the dehydrator
overheats, it will automatically shut down
as a safety feature, and the dehydrator can
no longer be used. Contact Customer
Support (see page 11).
• To turn sounds on/o, wait for the display
to show “--:--” and press and hold +for
5 seconds.
• Fruit and vegetables dried in the food
dehydrator will look dierent from those
sold in stores. This is because homemade
dried foods do not use preservatives,
artificial coloring, or artificial additives.
• Check out the Recipe Book for more tips
on dehydrating foods.
