where to get a manual?...and...Can you convection bake in silicone bakeware?

A manual comes with the oven. You can find out what cookware you can use with a convection oven off the net. Try to Goggle it.

Manuals are available online. The bottom of the silicon should tell you the temperature it is able to withstand.

HI,I'm also a bit puzzled by this.I use convection most of the time. But I found that pizza doesn't do well with convection so I use conventional in that case. I think things that tend to dry out in moving hot air might not be good candidates for convection.I have very good success with frozen breaded fish fillets and french fries in the convection mode.

Yes it has a conventional bake settings. But I prefer the convection setting - especially for baking breads and pastries. Provides even temperatures through out the oven allowing faster cooking times. Care must be used when opening door in convection mode. Keep your body to the side of the door as wall of heat will hit you if your standing in front of it. Wait a couple seconds before reaching in as this could be quite painful from experience. I'm quite pleased with this unit and love the induction top. I find it better than cooking with gas. You will need induction cookware for it to work. Train family members to use care as the glass surface is susceptible to scratches. I use pot felt pads when placing hot stoneware on the range surface. Stoneware has coarse surface that will scratch the glass.

While I didn't find a PDF of the manual :( I found these pages on the hawkinscookers.com web site which may be of help. You might try print useful pages then "save as PDF" to keep a bachup copy for when the web address no longer works. :) Trial Run before cooking: http://www.hawkinscookers.com/1.4.4.pc_trial_run.html Basic product information: http://www.hawkinscookers.com/1.4.3.pc_basicproduct_info.html All the parts of the 2 liter Contura: http://www.hawkinscookers.com/4.1.1.parts_and_service.aspx?exp_flag=E&brand_id=2

I purchased this toaster/convection for my mother in law. I unfortunately have no idea how many muffins and your question about the convection/bake. Sorry for not being able to answer!

This silicone mar can be used inside a convection oven up to 460 degrees F. Also makes a great hot plate trivet to protect your countertop or dining table. So many versitile uses.enjoy your silicone mats!

Wrap the muffins (and most foods) in foil so they don't get dried out and crusty. Think of what would happen if you used a hair dryer on the food. The convection oven replaces frying and deep frying more so than microwaving, but it is a good alternative for many things as it adds flavor rather than destroying it like a microwave. Get a Sunbeam Hot Shot for boiling water.

I purchased a microwave oven for the sole purpose of heating up leftovers for dinner. I do not use the convection over feature but I will probably get around to it after I read about the cooking features and feel more comfortable about trying to use that feature.

Best bet: put a standard 16"x11" silicone baking sheet on the top to insulate against the heat. Best price: "#1 Rated Reusable Non-Stick Silicone Baking Mat / Liner" by Fugami for $11 Prime (you get two!).

Not readily! Mine also went "cold" and calling direct was of no help! They advised I call a local professional Svc - but to no avail. And you can't order the part, has to be replaced by a Svc person. So my sits idly in the basement as a paper stand! And my digital control loss some functionality. Too much tech in our products rising to too much costly breakdowns. I vowed never to get a convection microwave oven again cuz of the heating element issues (glass tubes with no protective shields/screens). Toaster ovens with metal elements do much better, easier to clean & lasts way longer (went back to using our old Oster t/oven not the prettiest condition but it works fine!) hope this non-solution helps u! Good luck!

Yes, but I use a convection oven. I dont know if there is a difference. But, i say it Just to warn.

Yes, you never have to use the microwave mechanism. Every Microwave / Convection oven I have had has worked this way including this one. Some allow multiple stages using both, but I have never done this. I have just used the microwave by itself to cook something or I have just used the convection. Never both for the cooking the same item. This is my third Micro / Convection and my favorite so far. My toaster Oven as well as my regular oven are also convection ovens. So I haven't used it much. In my motorhome my Micro / Convection is the only oven I have, so it gets used quite a bit. A professional cooking instructor has told me she uses convection for almost everything, except baking cakes and the like.

Check out my Infrared oven user's group at Yahoo. There's wealth of info there. The Nuwave and the Flavorwave are the most popular. The B&D; is really too small, is a toaster oven, and is in an entirely different league (minor league) than the other two ovens.http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Flavorwave-Hearthware-Oven-Users/

I haven't tried it yet on the convection oven but just with the regular oven and it's ok. Maybe you can try it and give a few minutes extra. Happy eating.

This little oven is the best and you don't need the manual. Plug it in, look at the dials, decide what you want to (toast, convection, regular) and set the temperature dial as appropriate. You need to have the temperature set at 450 to toast. You need to set the timer at more than 10 minutes for convection. The convection function works great for reheating pizza, cooking broccoli florets and probably other things too. Good luck!
