- Page 7 Vessel dimensions should match the dimensions of the inner chamber. In the model PSO-01 the maximum permissible diameter of the pot is 28 cm provided the height is 13.5 cm and the vessel is placed on the sway-tray. The smaller the height the bigger the diameter of the vessel.
- Page 8 Vessels of bright shiny materials should be avoided. The high reflectivity of such materials reduces the effectiveness of SO. When boiling or steaming food, covered vessels should be used. Under the influence of heat, the water contained in the vessel and in the food itself evaporates and if no cover the steam fogs the glass lid of SO and thus lowers the temperature in the chamber.
- Page 9 What materials is the solar oven PSO-01 made of? Different parts of the SO are made of different materials.
