WARNING
Read the following information to avoid possible exposure to microwave radiation:
The basic design of the Amana Microwave Oven makes it an inherently safe device to both use and service.
However, there are some precautions which should be followed when servicing the Radarange to maintain this safety. These are as follows:
1.
Always operate the unit from an adequately grounded outlet. Do not operate on a two-wire extension cord.
8.
Do not for any reason defeat the interlock switches there is not valid reason for this action at any time; nor will it be condoned by Amana.
2.
Before servicing the unit (if unit is operable) perform the microwave leakage test.
9.
IMPORTANT: Before returning a unit to a customer, be sure to check for proper switch interlock action.
3.
The oven should never be operated if the door does not fit properly against the seal, the hinges or hinge bearings are damaged or broken; the choke is damaged, (pieces missing, etc.); or any other visible damage can be noted. Check the choke area to ensure that this area is clean and free of all foreign matter.
10. The Amana Microwave Oven should never be operated with any components removed and/or bypassed or when any of the safety interlocks are found to be defective, or when any of the seal surfaces are defective, missing, or damaged.
4.
If the oven operates with the door open and produces microwave energy, take the following steps:
A. Tell the user not to operate the oven.
B. Contact Maytag Amana Manufacturing immediately.
11. All Amana microwave ovens meet all requirements of the radiation control for Health and Safety Act of
1968. Due to measurement uncertainties, the maximum leakage for the field will be 4mw/cm 2.
5.
Always have the oven disconnected when the outer case is removed except when making the "live" tests called for in the Service Manual. Do not reach into the equipment area while the unit is energized. Make all connections for the test and check them for tightness before plugging the cord into the outlet.
12. To ensure that the unit does not emit excessive microwave leakage and to meet the Department of Health and Human Services guidelines, check the oven for microwave leakage using the models
Narda 8110B, Holaday HI-1501, HI-1510, or
HI-1710 leakage monitor as outlined in the instruction. The maximum leakage level allowed when following those instructions is 4mw/cm 2 .
6.
Always ground the capacitors on the magnetron filter box with an insulated-handle screwdriver before working in the high voltage area of the equipment compartment. Some types of failures will leave a charge in these capacitors and the discharge could cause a reflex action which could make you injure yourself.
13. If servicer encounters an emission reading over
4mw/cm 2 , the servicer is to cease repair and contact the Maytag Service Department immediately for further direction. Maytag
Manufacturing will contact the proper Government
Agency upon verification of the test results.
7.
Always remember that in the area of the transformer there is HIGH VOLTAGE. When the unit is operating keep this area clear and free of anything which could possibly cause an arc or ground, etc.

Grounding Instructions
!
WARNING
Do not remove grounding prong when installing grounded appliance in a home or business that does not have three wire grounding receptacle, under no condition is grounding prong to be cut off or removed.
It is the personal responsibility of the consumer to contact a qualified electrician and have properly grounded three prong wall receptacle installed in accordance with appropriate electrical codes.
!
WARNING
To avoid the risk of electrical shock or death, do not alter the plug.
!
WARNING
To avoid the risk of electrical shock or death, this equipment must be grounded.
This equipment MUST be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the equipment is properly grounded.
Do not use an extension cord. If the product power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install a threeslot receptacle. This oven should be plugged into a separate 60 hertz circuit with the electrical rating as shown in the appropriate drawing. Models operate with a
120 supply voltage. When a microwave oven is on a circuit with other equipment, an increase in cooking times may be required and fuses can be blown.

Important Safety Information
Servicing of Grounded Products
The standard accepted color coding for grounding wires is GREEN or GREEN WITH YELLOW STRIPE. These ground leads are NOT to be used as current carrying conductors. It is extremely important that the technician replace any and all grounds prior to completion of the service call. Under no condition should ground wire be left off causing a potential hazard to technicians and consumer.
Explanation
Polarization–This means that the larger slot must be neutral and the small slot must be hot (live).
Mispolarized–The outlet is miswired so that the larger slot is hot (live) and the smaller slot is neutral.
Grounded–This means the round hole connection is connected to earth ground through a connection to the main power panel.
Ungrounded–The round hole connection is not complete to earth ground and/or the main power panel.
Wiring
A good service practice is never route wiring over terminals and/ or sharp edges. This applies to any wiring without regard to the circuit voltage. Wire installation material and thickness is designed and regulated for electrical spacing purpose only, but cannot always be relied upon because of possible cuts and/or abrasions, which can occur during servicing.
Test Procedures (2 Methods)
Method #1
Purchase and use a ground monitor which indicates a correctly or incorrectly wired outlet by instructions imprinted on the monitor body.
!
WARNING
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death; verify the oven is properly grounded and polarized.
Method #2
Voltmeter - (Use scale over 125 Volts A.C.)
• Test A - "H" to "N" must indicate line voltage.
• Test B - "H" to "G" must indicate line voltage.
• Test C - "N" to "G" must indicate zero (0) volts.
If "N" to "G" indicates line voltage the outlet is improperly polarized.
Proper Grounding and Polarization of
120 Volts Wall Outlets
For the safety of our customers and the service technician ALL appliances have a three–prong power cord and MUST be connected to a properly polarized and grounded wall outlet.
This information was written for those who do not understand grounding and polarization of a wall outlet.
A 120 volt wall outlet must always be wired as shown below.
If "H" to "G" indicates zero (0) volts the outlet is not grounded.
Neutral (N) - This slot is the larger of the two and should be neutral (dead) with respect to ground.
H
Hot (H) - This slot is the smaller size and should always be hot
(live) with respect to neutral (N) and ground(G).
N
G
Ground (G) - The round hole connection is for the grounding circuit. Behind the cover plate a green wire should be connected to this terminal.
!
CAUTION
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or property damage; wiring changes or grounding of wall outlet are to be made only by a qualified electrician.
General Test Information
Most testing in the manual is conducted with an ohmmeter using a multiplier scale of X 10k (k–thousand ohms). When using this scale, it is important that your fingers do not touch the metal parts of the test probes.
To do so will give a false indication of the ohm reading.

Microwave Power Test Procedures
!
WARNING
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death, disconnect power to oven and discharge capacitor before servicing, unless testing requires it.
Power Test (Traditional 1 Liter Test)
Test equipment required is Amana power test kit R0157397 (Fahrenheit), or Menumaster power test kit M95D5
(Celsius).
1. Fill the plastic container to the bottom of the 1000 ml. line with cool tap water.
2. Using the thermometer; Fahrenheit or Celsius, stir the water, measure and record the water temperature.
Initial water temperature should be approximately 60
°F.
3. Place container on the center of the oven shelf and heat the water for 63 seconds.
NOTE: Use a watch second hand, not the oven timer.
4. Stir the water, measure and record the temperature of the water after heating time is complete.
5. Subtract the starting water temperature (Step 2), from the ending water temperature (Step 4) to obtain the temperature rise.
6. See the Temperature Chart provided below.
NOTE: Always perform power test three times for accuracy, changing the water after each test is performed.
NOTE: Variation or errors in the test procedure will cause a variance in the temperature rise indication. Additional power tests should be made if temperature rise appears marginal.
NOTE: Low line voltage may cause lower power output (temperature rise).

Microwave Leakage Testing Procedures
!
WARNING
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death, disconnect power to oven and discharge capacitor before servicing, unless testing requires it.
Measurement With the Outer Panel
Removed
!
WARNING
Check for radiation leakage after servicing. Should the leakage be more than 4mW/cm 2 inform Maytag immediately. After repairing or replacing any radiation safety device, keep a written record for future reference, as required by D.H.H.S. and
HEW regulations. This requirement must be strictly observed. In addition, the leakage reading must be recorded on the service repair ticket while in the customer’s home.
!
DANGER
Avoid contacting any high voltage components.
Whenever you replace the magnetron, measure for radiation leakage before the outer panel is installed and after all necessary components are replaced or adjusted. Special care should be taken in measuring around the magnetron.
Equipment
• Electromagnetic radiation monitor
• 600 cc glass beaker
Procedure For Measuring Radiation
Leakage
Note before measuring -
• Do not exceed meter full scale deflection. Leak monitor should initially be set to the highest scale.
• To prevent false readings the test probe should be held by the grip portion of the handle only.
• The scan speed is equal to one inch per antenna revolution or one inch per second if antenna speed is unknown.
• Areas to be checked are all door seal areas and any venting parts.
• Leakage with the outer panel removed
...4mW/cm 2 or less.
• Leakage for fully assembled oven with door normally closed ...4mW/cm 2 or less.
• Leakage for a fully assembly oven (before the latch switch (primary) is interrupted) while pulling the door ... 4mW/cm 2 or less.
Measurement With a Fully Assembled
Oven
After all components including the outer panel are fully assembled, measure for radiation leakage around the door periphery, the door viewing window, the exhaust opening, and air inlet openings.
Record Keeping and Notification After
Measurement
1. After any adjustment or repair to a microwave oven, a leakage reading must be taken. Record this leakage reading on the repair ticket even if it is zero.
2. A copy of the repair ticket and the microwave leakage reading should be kept by the repair facility.
1. Pour 275 cc ±15 cc (9 oz ±1/2 oz) of 20°C ± 5°C
(68°F ± 9°F) water in a beaker which is graduated to 600 cc and place the beaker in the center of oven.
2. Set the radiation monitor to 2450 MHz and use it following the manufacturer’s recommended test procedure to assure correct results.
3. While measuring the leakage, always use the two inch (5 cm) spacer supplied with the probe.
4. Press the start pad or turn on the timer and with the magnetron oscillating, measure the leakage by holding the probe perpendicular to the surface being measured.

Cooking Guidelines
The Amana Microwave Oven can make your job easier.
You’ll cook ahead and pre-portion more. You’ll also spend less time preparing special-order dishes.
To be sure of consistently good results, remember a few simple guidelines.
How Microwave Ovens Heat Food
All food and liquid molecules have positive and negative particles which are in constant, but slow, motion.
(Positive and negatives attract and repel each other like magnets.) In microwave cooking this molecular action is then accelerated. The instant microwaves bombard food which agitate the molecules. Agitation causes friction as molecules rub and bump into each other at an increased rate. Friction results in heat that cooks food and boils water.
Once the microwaves stop, this friction action continues by itself, eventually tapering off and returning to normal molecular action.
Microwaves penetrate food to a depth of ¾" to 1½". As cooking begins, heat is spread by conduction to the interior portion of the food just as in conventional cooking methods.
The density of foods can greatly affect the amount of cooking time. Porous foods, such as breads, cakes or pastries, will heat much more quickly than dense meats of the same size. Porous foods absorb microwaves quickly throughout. Meats absorb microwaves mostly at the exterior surface, and the interior is heated by conduction, increasing the cooking time. Meats can be cooked in a sauce, if desired. Due to the moisture content, a sauce will heat rapidly. The heat will transfer to the meat, so the meat will heat faster due to heat by conduction as well as by microwaves.
The starting temperature of foods affects the amount of cooking time. Each temperature degree that the food item is to raise must be supplied with a definite amount of energy. Lower initial starting temperatures require more energy and more time to cook. Therefore, refrigerator temperature foods require a longer cooking time than room temperature foods. Foods already slightly warm will heat very quickly in the oven.
The moisture content of foods affects the amount of cooking time. The higher the moisture content is in a food the longer the amount of cooking time.
Food Variables
Microwave cooking can be directly affected by different food variables.
The fat and sugar content of foods affects the amount of cooking time. Foods containing high fat and sugar levels heat very quickly and may reach much higher temperatures than foods having low fat and sugar levels.
Foods having lower fat and sugar levels require longer cooking times.
The shape of foods can greatly affect the amount of cooking time. Foods that are flat and thin heat faster than foods which are chunky. For example, a casserole will cook faster in a flat dish, rather than if heaped in a small dish. Foods cut into small pieces will cook faster than large-shaped foods. Pieces should be of a uniform size and shape for more uniform cooking, or the smaller pieces will cook faster. The greatest amount of heating takes place within ¾" of the food’s surface. The interior of large food items, or dense foods, is heated by the heat conducted from the outer food layer. The most uniform heating occurs in flat, doughnut-shaped foods. For best results, cook foods together which have similar sizes and shapes.
The quantity or volume of a food can affect the amount of cooking time. As the volume of the food is increased, the time required to cook or heat the item increases almost proportionately. If twice the amount of food is placed in the oven, it will take almost twice as long to cook. To determine the time for larger quantities, multiply the individual serving time by the increased amount, then reduce the total heating time by about 20%.
©2004 Maytag Appliances Company
The arrangement of food within a microwave oven cavity affects the way in which the food cooks. A “round” arrangement is best. Use round utensils whenever possible. Also, arrange foods such as baked potatoes in a circle, rather than in rows, for cooking. When only one food item is being cooked, place it in the center of the oven glass shelf for cooking.
Manipulation of Foods
Sometimes recipes suggest manipulating or moving food during cooking. There are several forms of manipulation:
Stirring is required less often in microwave cooking than in conventional cooking. In conventional cooking, you use a spoon to move food up from the bottom of a pan to evenly distribute the heat. In microwave cooking, you still stir to redistribute the heat within some foods, but you need to stir from the outside of a dish toward the inside or center. If a recipe states to stir once or twice during cooking, stir at approximately even intervals. For example, in a 12-minute cooking period, if a recipe states to stir twice, stir after 4 minutes of cooking and again, after 8 minutes of cooking. However, it is not necessary to be precise. Stir only when necessary. When using lower power levels or settings, less stirring is required.
Some examples of foods which may require stirring are puddings, some casseroles, some sauces, some soups, and some egg dishes. Some foods can’t be stirred.
These foods are rearranged or turned.
16023053 Rev. 0 A–7
Cooking Guidelines
Some foods can’t be stirred and should be repositioned
or rearranged during cooking. Some examples include baked potatoes, cupcakes (in custard cups), and chicken pieces. Rearranging allows for more even cooking of foods. Foods which are cooked, covered or which are cooked using lower power levels, usually require little rearranging.
There are actually two types of turning. Turning is done when foods cannot be stirred. Foods which are cooked, covered or which are cooked at lower power levels usually require little turning.
Turning foods over: Turning foods over is done to distribute heat. Meat and poultry are two types of foods which are sometimes “turned over.” Examples include roasts, turkeys and whole chickens. Small meat items such as poultry pieces may need to be turned over when in casseroles, or when in a browning skillet.
!
CAUTION
To avoid burns, use protective gloves or pads when removing dishes from oven. Some utensils become hot while cooking.
Utensil Check Test
Use the following test to check utensils for microwave safeness.
1. Place glass measuring cup of water next to empty dish to be tested in microwave oven.
2. Heat on full power for one minute.
3. Check temperature of dish and water.
• If dish remains cool and water is hot, dish is microwave safe.
• If dish is slightly warm, use for short term cooking.
• If dish is hot and water is cool, do not use. Dish remains cool if not absorbing microwaves and microwaves are being absorbed by water. Dish becomes hot if absorbing microwaves.
Microwave Utensils
Never use cooking containers or covers with any metal content. This includes all metal and enameled metal-core ware, foil, and metal-trimmed containers. Suitable heating containers include those made of paper products, glass, china, cloth, and wicker baskets.

Cooking Hints
Cover foods for faster, more even heating. Glass lids, plastic wrap, plate covers or other paper products may be used. Do not seal. Instead, allow for steamventing at all times.
Pierce pouches, plastic wrap covers and all foods with a thin skin or membrane, such as potatoes, squash, tomatoes, eggs, etc. This prevents an eruption in the oven and allows for expansion and/or the escape of steam.
Foods should be carefully arranged. For best results, arrange food such as vegetables or casserole-type items evenly around the edge of the plate with slightly less depth in the center. The edges of food items should not overlap or overhang the rim of the container. Cover meats with gravy or au jus and moisten all dry foods other than bread or pastry items.
Do not stack food or plated dishes in your oven.
Instead, when heating more than one serving or platters, all plates should be placed at the same level in the oven, with space between all containers.
