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.
A comprehensive Operating and Service Manual. All schematics are complete and easy to read. The PCB drawings and complete parts list are very helpful. I would definitely recommend this manual.

CHECKING LID CUT-OFF DEVICE
Lift the lid. Turn one hotplate burner tap to its full on position and push the ignition button. Close lid. There should now be no gas supply to the hotplate and the burner will go out. Turn off the hotplate tap and lift the lid. The gas supply should now be restored to the hotplate when the tap is turned on.
10. CHECKING THE MAIN OVEN
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Turn the oven thermostat knob to Mk 9 and press the ignition button. As soon as the burner is alight the button can be released. There should now be a low gas rate to the burner, which is the F.S.D. by pass rate. When the F.S.D. phial has heated up it opens the F.S.D. valve which allows the main gas supply to the oven burner. Set the oven control to Mk 2, close the oven door and check that after about 10 minutes the flame size has reduced. Turn off the control and check that the oven flames go out. If there is a fault refer to the Fault Finding Guide on Page 12.
