Things to know
1
The temperature must be 180° for food to cook in the Sun Oven.
2
When storing your Sun Oven, do not latch the glass closed before
snapping the reflectors in place. You will want to allow the oven to air
out.
3
Any roast or large bird over 4 pounds must be 100% thawed before
putting it into a preheated Sun Oven, or it won't cook properly.
Always preheat the oven before cooking. Align the Sun Oven to sun
4
with door latched. Oven should preheat in about 20-30 minutes.
5
The Sun Oven method of cooking is so natural and subtle that much less
moisture is required for recipes – when cooked in covered pans. The
natural, internal juices come into unique play, resulting in a superior,
moist taste. Be sure to cut down at least one-third of any liquid
measurements called for in rice, stews or sauces. This does NOT apply to
bakery products.
6
Since foods do not burn in the Sun Oven, it is not necessary to stir foods
after they are placed in the oven. Use a meat thermometer to determine
when to remove meats (put the meat thermometer in the meat before
placing it in the oven). You will need to add 10-15 minutes to the cooking
time every time you open the glass door during the cooking process.
7
When you are done cooking it is best to remove any moisture from the
interior of your Sun Oven by wiping it out with a dry cloth.

Troubleshooting
The Sun Oven will get to temps of 300 to 400 degrees depending upon local
conditions. If it's not getting hot enough:
Check your sun alignment.
Check your door seal to make sure its tight.
Make sure that there's not a lot of condensation inside.
If condensation builds up on the glass early
in the cooking cycle, open the door quickly
and wipe the condensation off the glass.
Place a small round piece of wood (or
chopstick) in the upper right hand corner of
the oven (above the top door latch) and
close the glass and latch it shut with the
wood partly in the oven and partly out. The
wood will allow the steam to escape with a
minimum loss of temperature.
When the food inside a Sun Oven is fully cooked the glass door of the oven
will steam up. If the food has been in the oven for a while the steam is an
indicator that the food is done.
