Whilst this is a photo copy, and some of the pages are a little askew, it was all readable and intact. A real bonus finding an old manual for a classic piece of kit that no other site had.
Great stuff.
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.

Drying times
Mixed loads
Drying times will vary depending on: . amount of moisture in the clothes, l type and weight of the fabric. l size of the load. l room temperature around the dryer. l temperature of the wash rinse water. l amount of lint in the lint screen. l dryer temperature selection. See page 6 in your�Dryer for more information. Guide�
When drying a load with different kinds and weights of fabrics, use the cycle suggested for the lightest fabrics. When the dryer stops, remove dry items and reset the control.
Lint signal
Clean lint screen before each load. If you neglect to clean your lint screen, the signal will sound. The (whistle tone] signal lets you know the air flow is being restricted Restricted air flow reduces drying efficiency. Turn off the dryer and clean the lint screen as shown on page 9.
