1. Important Safety Information
DANGER
WARNING: Do not preheat stove. Begin cooking with all com-
ponents at room temperature. Inserting cold food or components
into a heated vacuum tube may result in thermal shock.
WARNING: Fragile. Handle vacuum tube with care. The vac-
uum tube is made of glass and may break under undue stress or
shock.
WARNING: Avoid overheating. Do not leave empty oven open
in the sun.
WARNING: Contents are hot. The GoSun Sizzle is an oven,
and contents should be handled with extreme care, using appro-
priate heat resistant materials.
WARNING: Do not attempt to heat liquids directly in the
tube. Always use the provided cooking tray and accessories.
WARNING: Do not rotate the cooking tray. Ensure that the
cooking tray is upright inside the vacuum tube when in use. Con-
tents may be hot and spill.
WARNING: The GoSun Sizzle should only be operated
with the vacuum tube in a horizontal position. The solar
cooker should be upright at all times during use.
WARNING: Do not leave device in the sun unattended.
WARNING: Do not attempt to seal or pressurize the Tube.
CAUTION: Ensure that the device is sturdy, and the vacuum
tube is properly attached before attempting to cook in the GoSun
Sizzle.

General Safety Information
Use caution when pouring hot liquids from tray.
Device not intended for commercial use.
Do not put plastic, paper, or non-edible items inside the GoSun Sizzle.
This device is not intended for use near or by young children or cogni-
tively impaired persons without supervision.
Clean the Cooking Tray after every use, clean the Tube when needed
and only after it has cooled down. Keep Tube free of food debris, grit
and sand.
The fragments of a broken vacuum tube are very sharp. If remov-
ing a broken vacuum tube, use caution and only handle broken glass
while wearing the appropriate protective gloves and footwear to avoid
cuts and injury.
What is Thermal Shock?
Thermal Shock occurs when there is a rapid, extreme change in
temperature, which can make materials expand and contract quickly,
putting large amounts of stress onto the materials.
In the GoSun Sizzle, this extreme temperature stress on the glass
vacuum tube can cause the glass to shatter. To avoid this happen-
ing, be sure to review all important safety information carefully,
and never preheat the oven or introduce cold elements into a hot oven.
GoSun Fusion Electrical Tray
Safety Information
Intended for use with power supplies of 12V, 15A (180W) only.
WARNING: Do not leave heating element energized without food
in the tube/tray.

2. Introduction
Bake, fry, steam and boil using the power of the sun!
Using fuel, whether it is wood, charcoal, kerosene or electricity, is
costly, uses up the earth’s resources, and is harmful to the
environ-ment. The GoSun Sizzle is designed and made in Canada
by Glenergy and is distributed exclusively by GoSun.
Using durable material and putting a focus on local manufacturing,
The GoSun Sizzle embodies the best of what we love – long-last-
ing products that empower you to live your best life, wherever you
may happen to be.
Feeding 4-6 people per tray and cooking meals in as little as 1
hour, the GoSun Sizzle is perfect for a patio, balcony, deck, or on
the ground anywhere there is a sunny spot.
How Solar Cooking Works
Using a combination of sunlight, vacuum insulation and solar heat,
solar cookers harness the light from the sun.
Figure 1: The rays from the sun bounce o the reectors, heating the vacuum tube
and cooking the food inside.

1. Reectors and Sunlight
Parabolic reectors pull in the sun’s rays and focus them on the
insulated vacuum tube to provide heat for the oven.
Solar Heat:
The parabolic reectors and insulated vacuum tube work together
to trap heat (like an oven) to bring food up to temperatures of up
to 550ºF (288ºC).
2. Vacuum tube
Parabolic reflectors pull in the sun’s rays and focus them on the
insulated vacuum tube to provide heat for the oven.
The insulated vacuum tube absorbs the heat from the sun and
holds it in, creating an ideal environment for cooking. The vacuum
tube is an excellent heat insulator. The tube itself is made from bo-
rosilicate glass which is known for its chemical and thermal resis-
tance. Inside the vacuum there are three layers:
■aluminum nitride
■stainless steel and
■copper
These materials do not come in contact with your food, but they do
work together to trap visible and ultraviolet light ,which allows your
food to cook in light overcast weather.

3.1The GoSun Sizzle Solar Cooker
The GoSun Sizzle comes equipped with everything that you need
to start cooking right away. Including the reflector base, reflector
extensions, vacuum tube, cooking tray insert, cooking tray and ac-
cessories, the base model of the solar cooker can get you on your
way to fuel-free cooking in your own backyard. With the reector
extensions attached by hinges to adjust the reectors according
to the light, the extensions provide the user with a greater level of
control over their cooking experience.
Additionally, the reector extensions can be folded in completely for
easy storage.

3.2Solar Cooker Turntable
The turntable is an optional, mountable, rotating base for the
GoSun Sizzle. The turntable allows you to easily adjust the cooker
to follow the sun, ensuring that you can always nd the best angle
to cook at quickly.
3.3GoSun Fusion Electric Tray and Power
Cord
The GoSun Sizzle comes with the electric tray from the GoSun
Fusion.
In the case of bad weather or cooking after dark, the GoSun
Fusion electric tray can be plugged in and used with your GoSun
Sizzle solar cooker.
4.Vacuum Tube Installation
The GoSun Sizzle comes fully assembled except for the installation
of the vacuum tube.
8
On the top of the legs you will find the tube clamps, loosely joined.
You will see that one end of the assembled cooker has a shield for
the closed end of the tube. Carefully slide the tube under both
straps such that the closed end is almost touching the tube shield.
Before tightening, determine if the you want to change the
direction that the tube open in, for easier loading and checking of
food, based on where you will usually cook. If you need to,
changing the tube shield is very easy.
Tighten the tube clamps by holding the free end tightly and pulling,
while holding the tube and the other side of the clamp steady.
You will find a small tool (1 cm x 4 cm x .1 mm stainless steel).
Keep this tube clamp adjusting tool available in case you ever need
to loosen the clamps to remove the tube. This tool can be inserted
between the two sides of the clamps, where they join, to release
the locking mechanism and allow the clamp to loosen.
5. Operating Instructions
Once set up, the GoSun Sizzle is ready to use immediately, and
while it is transportable, the solar cooker is intended to be a sta-
tionary staple in your outdoor cooking routine, as opposed to a
portable cooking solution.
Different foods take different amounts of time to cook, but most
foods will cook in around 60 minutes. Smaller foods (like beans
and chopped vegetables) will cook faster, while larger, denser
foods will need longer cook times on average.
Best results will come from cooking in full sun, but delicious food
can still be made in cloudy weather. Ensuring that the reflectors are
adjusted to stay oriented towards the sun as it moves across the
sky is the best way to achieve results during your cooking process.
