We've found that anytime you do anything in the oven you should always use the little metal plate, it helps everything cook better.

Except popcorn, that does fine just on the glass plate.

I found ours.  It was so small that it was hidden in some other papers.  Bottom line is that the unit is 1000 watts and we will go find a mic/convection cookbook that works with this power level.

If you have a silicone mat I would leave it, they are able to take high temperatures.  Since Pyrex can be placed right in the oven at home I would do the same for the convection oven.

We have a new 178.  We did not get any sort of manual for the microwave/convection oven.  I found a .pdf for the model 22200, but apparently the new 178 has a different model Sunbeam.  Does anyone have a link to where I can download the manual?

Thanks!

When using Pirex do I sit the Pirex on the metal stand or sit it on the glass tray? Also I have a round piece of what I believe to be a silicone mat on the glass tray in the micro/convection. Is that what it is? Can I cook on it? That crazy clock drives me bonkers.

At home we have a electric/convection oven also.  We just have the option of whether to turn on the convection or not.  I rarely use that setting at home, the DW does for baking and swears by it.

The glass tray always stays inside the oven, regardless of whether you are using the microwave, convection or both.

The metal tray is only used when using the convection oven settings, or the combination settings. If you are just going to microwave something make sure to remove it.
