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 Microwave Oven to maintain this
safety. These are as follows:

10. Before returning a unit to a customer, verify that
the door spacing is reasonably uniform along the
top, bottom, and sides, and that it measure

11. Microwave ovens should never be operated with
any components removed and/or bypassed or
when any of the safety interlocks are found to be
failing or when any of the seal surfaces are failing,
missing or damaged.

12. All 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

13. 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 a leakage
monitor. The maximum leakage level allowed
when following those instructions is 4mw/cm

contact the Commercial Support Center
immediately for further direction. Maytag will

1.
Always operate the unit from an adequately
grounded outlet. Do not operate on a two-wire
extension cord.

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.

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 immediately.

B. Contact Maytag immediately.
5.
Always have the oven disconnected when the outer
case is removed except when making the "live"
tests called for in this 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.

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.

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.
