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.
Good quality instructions manual. Very useful to me. Quick and excellent service from Owner-Manuals... Thanks !!!

Cleaning the Catalysis Set
The catalysis sheets are self-cleaning. They absorb splashes of food and fat whilst the oven is in use. To support this self-cleaning process, we recommend to heat the oven without any food at regular intervals. 0 1. Remove all slide-in items from the oven. 2. Set the oven temperature to 250 °C. 3. Switch the oven off after one hour. 4. Wipe off any residues left with a damp soft sponge.

Important! Do not use oven spray or scouring cleaning aids. Do not use soap or other cleaners. These can cause damage to the catalysis sheet. After an extended period of use the catalysis sheet may discolour slightly. This does not have any effect on the catalytic properties. However, depending on usage, the catalysis sheet should be replace from time to time.
