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.

Use
This dishwasher is designed solely for washing household utensils suitable for washing in a dishwasher. Using it for other purposes may damage it and invalidate the guarantee.
Building-in
If you want to build the dishwasher into your kitchen furniture, it is important to use our approved build-in kit. This comes with the correct instructions needed to observe all the relevant regulations. You can obtain the build-in kit from the same place where you bought the dishwasher.
Protecting the dishwasher against freezing
If the dishwasher is placed in an environment where the temperature sometimes fall below 0° C, there is a risk that the small amount of water which remains inside the parts of the dishwasher will freeze and damage it. To prevent this you should: 1. Turn off the water supply to the dishwasher. 2. Drain the inlet and discharge hoses. 3. Select a wash programme and let the machine run for a few seconds. The appliance is only to be used and stored indoors at normal room temperature. The manufacture is not responsible for any frost damage.
