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.

Electrical Requirements
Electrical Grounding Instructions This appliance is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug for protection against possible shock hazards. If a twoprong wall receptacle is encountered, the customer is required to contact a qualified electrician and have the twoprong wall receptacle replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Code. Room air conditioners are designed to operate according to requirements on the nameplate and as shown in Figure 1. Fuse or circuit breaker ratings must be according to the fuse instruction label and as shown in Figure 1. Do not plug models marked �Use on Single Outlet Circuit Only� into a circuit with another appliance or light fixture.
Safety Features
This room air conditioner is equipped with an electronic control to improve comfort and ensure reliability.
Compressor Lockout To extend the life of the compressor a three minute time delay will occur when:
� � � Electrical power is first supplied to the unit The thermostat is turned down immediately after the compressor stops running. The Fan Control is quickly turned from FAN ONLY to COOLING mode or vice versa.
WARNING

Low Voltage Protection This unit is equipped with �brownout� protection. In case of an extreme brownout, the Amana control will interrupt power to the unit to prevent compressor failure. When the line voltage reaches at least 180 VAC, the control will reenergize your unit. Note: A compressor lockout will occur after the unit is re-energized.
