Drying
Only use the Dryingspecial application
or the Combi Fan plusoperating
mode to dry food so that moisture can
be dissipated.
Bananas, pineapple and chanterelles
are not suitable for drying.
 Cut the food for drying into equally
sized pieces.
 Line the rack with baking parchment
and distribute the food for drying
evenly in a single layer if possible.
 Allow the fruit or vegetables to cool
down after drying.
 Store dried food in sealed glass jars
or tins.
To prevent mould from forming and
the food from decomposing, make
sure that no moisture gets into the
storage container.
