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°0
• Min. dehydrate setting:
100°F/38°0
• Max. dehydrate setting: 225°F/108°O
Setting dehydrate
See the example below to set dehydrate at the
default temperature of 120°F.
_/_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.
