Thanks to Owner-Manuals.com! This manual was exactly what I needed. As Amana was purchased by Maytag and later by Whirlpool, there was no way to receive it from their websites. I was lucky to find this resource.
Good quality instructions manual. Very useful to me. Quick and excellent service from Owner-Manuals... Thanks !!!

Every time you drain the water through the emergency emptying hose you must pour 2 litres of water into the main wash compartment of the detergent drawer and then run the drain programme. This will activate the ECO valve avoiding that part of the detergent remains unused at next washing.
� Screw the pump cover fully in. � Close the pump door.
Emergency emptying out
If the water is not discharged, proceed as follows to empty out the machine: � pull out the plug from the power socket; � close the water tap; � if necessary, wait until the water has cooled down; � open the pump door; � place a bowl on the floor and place the end of the emergency emptying hose into the bowl. Remove its cap. The water should drain by gravity into the bowl. When the bowl is full, put the cap back on the hose. Empty the bowl. Repeat the procedure until water stops flowing out; � clean the pump if necessary as previously described; � replace the emergency emptying hose in its seat after having plugged it; � screw the pump cover again and close the door. 17
Warning
When the appliance is in use and depending on the programme selected there can be hot water in the pump circuit. Never remove the pump cover during a wash cycle, always wait until the appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty. When replacing the pump cover, after a cleaning inspection, ensure it is securely retightened so as to stop leaks and young children being able to remove it.
Cleaning the water inlet filters
If your water is very hard or contains traces of lime deposit, the water inlet filters may become clogged. It is therefore a good idea to clean it from time to time. Turn off the water taps. Unscrew the water inlet hoses.
