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.

Oven Cavity The enamelled oven cavity is best cleaned whilst the oven is still warm. Wipe the oven over with a soft cloth soaked in warm soapy water after each use. From time to time it will be necessary to do a more thorough cleaning, using a proprietary oven cleaner. If the soilage has become set, after the oven has cooled down, the following process will help to soften the splatters to help make cleaning easier.
1. Place the grill/ meat pan on the oven shelf
positioned in the lowest runner. 2. Add a few drops of wasing-up liquid to the pan and fill to about 12 mm. with boiling water from the kettle. 3. Close the oven door, turn the oven function knob on fan oven knob on 50°C. and set the thermostat
4. After 15 minutes, turn off the thermostat and allow the fan oven to continue without heat for a further 5 minutes, when the temperature of the water will have cooled down. 5. Carefully remove the pan of water from the oven and use normal oven cleaners to clean away soil residues. 6. Leave a little of soapy water to soak into any burned on spillage on the floor of the oven for a longer time if necessary. Oven Shelves To clean the oven shelves, soak in warm soapy water and remove stubborn marks with a well wetted soap impregnated pad. Rinse well and dry with a soft cloth.The shelf supports can be removed for easy cleaning (see diagram). Please, ensure the retaining nuts are secure when refitting the shelf support.
Grease Filter To prevent a build-up of fats on the fan impellor, the grease filter must be fitted by clipping it over the vents in the back panel. Do not use abrasive materials to clean the seal. The grease filter is dishwasher proof. To clean the grease filter When cooking is completed and the oven has cooled down, remove the filter by pushing the protruding tongue on the filter upward, and wash carefully. Remember to refit the filter before using the oven again.
