Care & Maintenance/Operation
Getting Started:
Before using your dehydrator for the fi rst time, wash the trays, top cover,
mesh inserts and fruit leather sheets in warm, soapy water.
After Each Use:
Clean the trays, top cover, mesh inserts and fruit leather sheets, (if used), with
warm, soapy water. Soaking and/or using a plastic scrubber may remove
stubborn particles.
Warning:
• Do not put trays, mesh inserts, fruit leather sheets or top cover in the
dishwasher. Heat from most dishwashers, (on drying cycle), can cause
them to warp.
• Hand wash only.
• Do not use abrasive scrubbers, cleaners or solvents to clean plastic.
These will scratch the surfaces of the appliance.
• Do not submerge the power unit/base in water. Wipe with a clean cloth.
