INTRODUCTION
Congratulations! You are now the proud owner of a Tribest® Sedona® Combo Rawfood
Dehydrator. With the advanced Tribest Sedona Combo Rawfood Dehydrator, you can enjoy
the benefits of efficiently and conveniently dehydrating your favorite food and vegetables,
utilizing the latest in digital dehydration technology and the revolutionary Two-Stage Sequential
Temperature-Timer (TST). From apples to zucchini, breads to pâtés, and crackers to your
favorite jerky recipes, you can set the Sedona Combo to meet all your dehydrating needs.
The Tribest Sedona Combo introduces our latest innovation: the Two-Stage Sequential
Temperature-Timer (TST). The TST allows you to easily set the Tribest Sedona Combo to start
at a higher temperature, to kick-start the dehydration process. Then it automatically switches
to a lower temperature to finish off the job without raising the temperature of the food above
the desired level. The TST lowers the amount of time it takes to dehydrate your favorite raw
recipes without all the hassle.
The Tribest Sedona Combo is the advanced solution to dehydration - offering you all
the options you require to make the dehydration process as simple and as convenient
as possible. With the Tribest Sedona Combo, you have the control to set the timer for up
to 99 hours, or to use continuous mode for up to 150 hours of worry-free uninterrupted
operation. Because the Tribest Sedona Combo utilizes Dual Fan Technology, with its two
independent heating mechanisms, the heated air is evenly circulated and distributed for
uniform dehydration of your foods. The Dual Fan Technology allows you to save electricity
when you only want to dehydrate a smaller batch by switching off one of the independent
heating mechanisms. Dehydrate up to 9 trays of fruits and vegetables or divide the machine
into two 4-tray chambers for smaller batches of your favorite dehydrated recipes.
The Tribest Sedona Combo also offers you a convenient way to monitor your foods with
a see through glass window at the front of the unit. As an added convenience, there are
now two internal LED lights, which can be switched on to see inside the machine without
disrupting the dehydration process.
Be sure to carefully unpack your Tribest Sedona Combo and check that all of the parts are
included with your package. Also take the time to become familiar with the functions of the
unit before you begin dehydrating foods. It is a good idea to press each button to check their
functionality – making you aware of what each button controls. Nine trays have been included
with your machine to make your dehydrating experience easier and to enhance the versatility
of the food preparation capabilities.
We recommend that you wash all of the trays with warm water and a mild detergent before
you first use your Tribest Sedona Combo. Now you are ready to begin dehydrating with your
Tribest Sedona Combo. We hope you enjoy your new dehydrator, as it helps you better

preserve the nutrition of your favorite fruits and vegetables and helps you continue your
journey to better health.
Please take the time to thoroughly read through the entire operation manual for proper use
and care instructions. Following the instructions in this manual will ensure that your Tribest
Sedona Combo Rawfood Dehydrator operates optimally for the years to come.

SET-UP
1. Power Switch is used to turn on or off the Tribest Sedona Combo.
2. °F/°C button will enable you to select the temperature display mode (Fahrenheit or
Celcius).
NOTE: The default setting of Sedona Combo is in Celsius (°C). Once you set the machine
to Celsius or Fahrenheit, the Sedona Combo will remember your setting even after you
turn OFF the switch.
3. Temperature display is used for two separate functions:
• Setting Desired Temperature- During set up this display will be used to set the desired
temperature of the drying compartment.
NOTE: The condition of the inflowing air may adversely affect the actual compartment
temperature. The actual compartment temperature may read a +/- 5°C (9°F)
difference. The difference is registered by the thermal sensor, thus regulating the
heating mechanism activity.
• Temperature Display- Will display your desired temperature setting.
-The 2 icons on the left in the TEMP display indicate which of the two heating
mechanism is active at any given time.
-When the top left icon is lit, the top heating mechanism is active.
-When the bottom left icon is lit, the lower heating mechanism is active.
-When the two icons light up alternately, both heating mechanisms are active.
NOTE: While the temperature displayed by the Temperature Display is set to the desired
setting, the actual temperature in the drying chamber may fluctuate up to ±5°C (41°F).
4. TIMER display will show the total number of hours set for each desired temperature.
This timer automatically counts down, showing the time remaining for dehydrating.
5. SET button has two functions:
• It enables you to set the temperature and the time.
-When initially setting the temperature, press the SET button once and the 3 digit of
the TEMP window will flash.
-When you press the SET button once more, the 2 digit TIMER window will flash.
• Once the temperature and the time is set, the SET button turns on two internal LED
