* Roasting times are approximate and may vary depending on shape of the meat.
** Stuffed turkey requires additional roasting time. The minimum safe temperature for stuffing in poultry is 165°F.
Dehydrate
(some models)
The dehydrate mode dries with heat from a third
element behind the back wall of the oven. The
heat is circulated throughout the oven by the
convection fan. Use dehydrate to dry and/or pre-
serve foods such as fruits, vegetables and herbs.
This mode holds an optimum low temperature
(100° F - 160° F) while circulating the heated air
to slowly remove moisture. The oven will stay on
for 48 hours before shutting off automatically.
For Best Results:
• Dry most fruits and vegetables at 140° F. Dry herbs at 100° F. (Refer to the
Dehydrate Chart for examples).
• 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.
Check food at the minimum drying time.
• Multiple racks (not included) can be used simultaneously. Contact your dealer
to order drying racks.
• Treat fruits with antioxidants to avoid discoloration.
• Consult a food preservation book, county Cooperative Extension Office or
library for additional information.
