Stove

Orient to Sun

  1. Please note: when cooking with electric, do not orient to sun. Skip to section 03.
  2. Rotate the GoSun Sport until the reflectors are facing perpendicular to the sun.
  3. Stand in front of the device with your head’s shadow aligned on the tube.
  4. Tilt device until the reflectors show only the blue of the tube. This indicates that the sun’s rays will all be directed onto the tube.

The GoSun Sport only has to be readjusted every hour or so as the sun moves through the sky.

Insert Food

  1. Fill up the cooking tray with food.
  2. To avoid thermal shock, don’t allow the cooker to preheat in the sun for more than 10 minutes before placing food.
  3. Ensure the steam vent is unblocked and faced upwards.
  4. Insert cooking tray until handle seal interfaces with the mouth of the tube.

Food Warning
Do not insert cold food into hot tube
It can cause excess stress on the tube, known as thermal shock, which may weaken it or cause it to break.
Do not overload the cooking tray
Many foods expand when heated and can get stuck inside the tube.
Do not force the cooking tray in tube
It may break the tube or be difficult to remove.

Cook Food – Solar

  1. Let the sun do its magic (see “Cook Times”).
  2. To reduce the temperature or slow cooking times, simply pull the device out of the sun’s direct path or close the reflectors
  3. Enjoy solar cooked food!

Warning – Contents Hot
Any item placed inside cooking tube can be extremely hot and cause severe burns.
Use Caution
When handling the device and implements. The GoSun stove can reach temperatures of up to 700°F, and will begin heating up as soon as it is exposed to sunlight. Because of the vacuum insulator, you cannot be burned by touching any exterior part of the GoSun Stove. However, inner components can be extremely hot and must be handled with care.

Cook Food – Electric

  1. Locate the Power Cord.
  2. Plug the Power Plug into the port on the Cooking Tray.
  3. Plug the opposite end into any 12V (15AMP) power source, such as the Power144 or Power266.

Note:
Cooking with both the sun and electricity simultaneously is not recommended. Please close Reflectors before using Electrical Heating Element. When using a car as a source of power, be careful not to drain your car battery. GoSun recommends checking your car battery level before cooking each meal.
GoSun recommends a maximum of 90 min continuous cook times with electric heating element before checking battery levels and allowing 15min for all electrical components to cool before reuse.
Warning
Integrated Electric Heater will immediately get hot once plugged in. Handle with protective materials.
Intended for use with 12V, 15 AMP power sources. Check compatibility before plugging in.
Do not leave cooking unattended.
Do not turn on heat when the cooking tray is empty.

The GoSun Sport’s performance is unaffected by ambient temperatures and wind, cooking meals in frigid temperatures just as well as in hot weather. High humidity, pollution, and diffused light (general overcast or “thick” air) can significantly impact cooking times due to light scattering. In humid climates, the GoSun Sport will be most efficient in the spring and fall. It will not work in full shade using solar. If cooking in shaded conditions, please use the electrical cooking capability of the cooking tray.

Cooking Tips

Applying aluminum foil, oil and butter to the cooking trays before adding food helps to prevent it from sticking to the steel surface as it cooks
Heat is generally distributed evenly to food in the tube but foods at the end of the tray (away from handle) tend to cook faster than foods near the tubes opening.
Baked foods typically expand considerably (more than twice the uncooked volume), so start with small quantities and work up to the full tube size.
The GoSun Sport tends to trap large amount of moisture from cooking food, and can be used to easily steam vegetables. For a crispier meal, allow the steam to escape by keeping an opening near the hang and drain the fluids periodically.
Sausages that curl when heated should be cut in half to prevent them from getting stuck.

Cleanup

  1. Allow the device to completely cool down out of the sun – this can take over an hour.
  2. Screw the cleaning scrubby tool to the far end of cooking tray (leave handle in place).
  3. Fill tube with about 0.5 liters or 8oz of water and a squirt of dish soap.
  4. Insert cooking tray in cool tube and twist in a clockwise direction while plunging up and down.
  5. Rinse tray and tube as needed with water (tube must be cool).

Warning
Do not use harsh abrasives, caustic cleaners or oven cleaners on this device. It can cause scratching and structural damage to the tray.

Maintenance

  1. Hand wash only. The stainless steel cooking tray can easily be cleaned by hand. Due to electronics inside the handle and on the tray, the tray should never be cleaned in the dishwasher.
  2. It is recommended that you clean the inside of the glass tube after every three uses to prevent build-up of grease or food matter, which can affect the flavor of food.
  3. Clean the cooking tray after every use, clean the tube when needed and only after it has cooled down.
  4. If the reflectors become deformed due to an impact or other accident, they may be returned to their original shape by bending by hand. A printable reflector is available at (http://gosunstove.com/reflectorprofile) and can be cut to check the shape.
  5. If the GoSun cooking tray becomes deformed after extensive use and becomes noticeably harder to insert into the tube, it can be remedied by squeezing the tray by hand.
  6. If the evacuated tube breaks, it can be removed and replaced by following the “Tube Removal” section on Page 16. The GoSun Sport uses the best evacuated tubes available on the market, however if they are damaged, a barium layer will oxidize and a white film will appear on the inside of the outer tube, indicating that the tube should be replaced.

Turn Vertical

  1. Start with locked legs and open reflectors (See “Open Stove” directions.
  2. Grip the center of the tube firmly in one hand, and the bottom bracket in the other.
  3. Pull them away from each other until the top and bottom bracket separate enough to rotate (may require more force than expected).
  4. Twist the tube 90°, then gently release the tube as it locks in its new place on the bottom bracket.
  5. Orient the sport in the vertical position by pointing reflector tips toward the Sun.

Vertical Warning
Do not boil water or cook food directly in the tube: always use either the GoSun cooking trough, the boiling insert, or another product specifically designed for use in the GoSun Sport.

Tube Removal

For cleaning and repairing purposes, the tube can be removed from the rest of the device with the following procedures:

  1. Orient Sport into Vertical Position (see “Turn Vertical”).
  2. Locate tube release set screws on the under side of the top bracket.
  3. Using a screwdriver, loosen set screws no more than three rotations counterclockwise.
  4. Firmly grasping tube in one hand and bracket in the other, slide tube out of the bracket by pushing the tube toward the closed end. Be careful not to force the tube or knock it on hard surfaces.
  5. Repeat these steps in reverse order to put tube back in place.
    Don’t forget to tighten the set screws.

To mount onto a tripod:

  1. Only use a tripod capable of handling the weight and torque of the GoSun Sport loaded with food.
  2. Locate the tripod mount on the underside of the top bracket by rotating bracket to the vertical mode (see “Turn Vertical”).
  3. Connect tripod into the 1/4 20 female threaded slot.
  4. Be sure to tighten securely.
  5. Use the tripod’s head to adjust the tilt angle.
