Oven Set Up
1. Place heat reflective fiberglass mat, with the aluminum side facing up, on base of the Voyageurs stove. The center hole of the fiberglass mat should line up with the center burner hole of the Voyageurs stove.
2. Insert a single burner into the center hole and connect the valve and fuel canister. Ensure that the valve is closed and the connections are tight to prevent gas leaking.
3. With the oven flaps folded in, center the oven enclosure into the stove and push the bottom corners of the oven enclosure down into the back, bottom corners of the stove.
4. Swing the side flaps of the oven enclosure out to the oven side windscreens, aligning and securing with the hook and loop.
5. Place the 8” diameter stainless steel heat diffuser plate on top of the burner. This heat diffuser plate will distribute the heat evenly within the oven and minimize hot spots directly above the burner.
6. Extend the legs of the baking rack and place it into the oven, on top of the heat reflective fiberglass mat.
7. Insert the thermometer into the lower grommet and secure with the wingnut.
8. Close the oven top. The fiberglass fabric is somewhat stiff and you may need to flex it a bit to adjust the fit.
General Baking Instructions
Turn the burner control knob on slightly and light the burner. The oven will get up to temperature within about 5 minutes, depending on outside/ambient temperature.
The lowest flame setting of the burner will result in an oven temperature of about 250o F. We recommend baking most items at about 300o F and varying the baking time to achieve the best results. Do not exceed 400o F.
After you gain experience, you may not need to use the thermometer and just bake at a low to moderate heat setting (275o to 350o F), baking by time rather than exact temperature.
Cautions & Warnings
· Do not operate the oven or stove indoors or in an enclosed space.
· While baking, the oven enclosure will be hot.
· Do not exceed 400o F.
The heat diffuser plate and baking rack will remain hot for some time after baking. Please allow these to cool completely before handling.
