IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS Always follow basic safety precautions when using your dehydrator. Read all instructions. General Safety • Do not touch hot surfaces. • Do not immerse cord, plug, or base in water or other liquid. • Closely supervise children near the dehydrator. • Unplug when not in use, and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts. • Do not use dehydrator if it is damaged, not working, or if the cord or plug is damaged. Contact Customer Support (page 12).
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR DEHYDRATOR Your Cosori dehydrator features an automatic fan, which circulates warm air to evenly dry food. Dried foods are a great treat to snack on, because they keep almost all their nutritional value and flavor. Dehydrating is the perfect way to preserve snacks, fruit, vegetables, bread, and even flowers. Food Dehydrator Diagram A. B. C. D. E. F. G. H.
DISPLAY Controls • Press START/STOP to start or stop the dehydrator. • Press TEMP/TIME once and use the + and – buttons to change the temperature. • Press TEMP/TIME a second time and use the + and – buttons to change the time. BEFORE FIRST USE Setting Up 1. Remove all packaging from your dehydrator and its accessories. Make sure all package contents are included (see page 3). 2. Clean the base and trays with a moistened cloth. NOTE: Do not wash the base or trays in a dishwasher.
USING YOUR DEHYDRATOR Operation NOTE: Use the dehydrator in a warm, dry room. Depending on humidity in the air and moisture in the food, dehydration time may vary. 1. Place food on trays. The trays can hold up to 1.1 lb (0.5 kg) of food. Place food on the bottom tray first, and use the top tray last. Be careful not to overload the trays. 2. Plug in. The dehydrator will beep, and the display will show “88:88”. The dehydrator will switch to standby mode after 3 seconds, and the display will show “--:--”. 3.
Tray Liners Your dehydrator comes with 2 tray liners: a fruit roll sheet and a mesh screen. 1. Place a tray liner on a dehydrator tray. Place food on the tray. 2. Once the food is dehydrated, lift the tray liner out of the tray, using the cutouts on the side of the tray. 3. Remove food. Bending the screen is helpful for removing sticky foods. Fruit Roll Sheet • 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.
CARE & MAINTENANCE 1. Unplug the dehydrator and allow it to cool before cleaning. 2. If you used a recipe that left traces of liquid or other residue, use paper towels to wipe down the trays and tray liners before cleaning. 7. When storing, turn the base upside down and wrap the cord around the center of the base. Secure the cord under the clips. [Figure 1.1] 3. Soak trays in hot, soapy water for easy removal of food residue. 4. Use a soft brush to clean the trays and tray liners.
