Grounding Instructions
WARNING
T o avoid the risk of electrical shock or death, this oven must be grounded.
To avoid the risk of electrical shock or death, do not alter the plug.
This oven MUST be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This oven is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a properly installed and grounded outlet.
Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the oven is properly grounded.
Installation
Unpacking Oven
• Remove packing and printed material from oven cavity .
• Report any dents or breakage to source of purchase immediately.
• Inspect oven for damage such as dents in door or inside oven cavity .
• Inspect grill accessory in oven cavity for damage.
• Inspect cord and plug for damage.
Oven Placement
• Leave at least 1 inch/2.54 centimeters on side of oven with air vents to ensure adequate air flow around oven. Restricted airflow may cause oven to operate improperly and shorten life of electrical parts.
• Do not block air exhaust duct or air filter.
• Install according to all local building codes and ordinances.
• Amana Wave Oven™ must be built into cabinets. Use only Amana “AXL” trim kit.
Do not use an extension cord. If the oven power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician install a three-slot receptacle. This oven should be plugged into a separate 60 hertz circuit with the electrical rating as shown in the appropriate drawing. Models rated at 240 supply voltage. When Amana Wave Oven™ is on a circuit with another appliance or supply voltage varies, an increase in cooking times may be required and fuses can be blown.

Amana Wave Oven™ Cooking
Cooking Guidelines
The Amana Wave Oven™ uses high intensity radiant energy to cook, brown, grill, sear, and heat foods. Amana Wave Oven™ minimizes cooking times while maximizing food quality .
The Amana Wave Oven™ does not require preheating. Amana Wave Oven™ uses 2 independent lamp banks to
heat food. The upper lamp banks heat food directly while the lower bank heats cooking utensil or grill. Because the grill or utensils absorb radiant energy , light does not need to shine on the bottom of the food.
Upper and lower lamp banks do not heat simultaneously . When upper lamp bank is operating, lower lamp bank is off. However , to provide light for the oven cavity , upper lamp bank turns on while lower bank heats. Oven display shows “OFF” when upper lamp bank provides light for oven cavity.
When developing recipes, watch the food while it cooks. How food looks and smells while cooking provides the best indication of how the food is cooking.
Use “Manual Time Entry Cooking” section to create a new recipe and “Saving Recipe” section to quickly save the recipe. If food bubbles or browns excessively , adjust lamp bank intensities to lower radiant energy intensity . By watching the food, recipes can be developed, perfected, and saved quickly .
Recipes were developed when oven cavity was at room temperature. If oven cavity is warm, decrease cooking times slightly.
Use these guidelines to achieving best results.
• Use only rack or grill while cooking. When utensils are placed over each other, food is shielded from radiant energy and cooks unevenly .
• Distribute small pieces of food evenly . Overlapping food, like beef or chicken fajita strips, fish fillets, french fries, and appetizers, shields food from radiant energy and food cooks unevenly.
• Use dark, aluminum pan when cooking foods that require uniform bottom cooking. Foods like pizza, fajitas, grilled sandwiches, and appetizers, require a dark aluminum pan.
• Watch irregularly shaped foods closely. Edges or high points of food, like bone-in chicken breast or rack of ribs, can burn quickly if not watched closely .
• Use recommended utensils when following “Cooking Guide” or “Recipes” section. Size, shape, and material impact cooking times and results.
• Use recommended cooking times. Most recipes give ranges of cooking times. Set your oven to the lowest cooking time, check the food, and add time if necessary.
• Measure ingredients carefully .
• Allow food to stand after cooking. Food continues to cook after it is removed from oven.
Frozen or Thick Food Guidelines
Heat frozen foods using lower lamp intensity and longer heating times. Frozen foods require a long heating period at low lamp intensity to defrost before cooking.
Repeatedly increase and then decrease lamp intensity levels while cooking food over 4 inches thick. This cooking method grills exterior while allowing food to cook to center.
Converting Conventional Recipes
See “Cooking Guide” or “Recipes” section and find food similar to conventional recipe. Use cooking time and utensil recommended for Amana Wave Oven™ recipe. Watch the food while it cooks. How food looks and smells while cooking provides the best indication of how the food is cooking. Adjust time and lamp intensity as needed.
Eliminating or Reducing Oven Smoke
Clean Amana Wave Oven™ and grill frequently to reduce or eliminate oven smoke. When cooking with Amana Wave Oven™, food can create smoke comparable to open door oven broiling or a downdraft grill. Foods that are high in sugar and fat content will create more smoke than most foods. However, to eliminate or reduce oven smoke follow the points below:
• Clean oven and grill frequently . Clean grill after every cooking cycle. Though the grill does not appear to be soiled, small amounts of grease and food residue can create smoke.
• Do not allow drippings to fall on glass shield. Because glass shield becomes very hot, food that falls onto glass shield will create smoke.
• Do not over season or over baste. Because utensils become very hot, seasonings or marinades on exposed utensil will create smoke.
• Use properly sized utensils. Areas on grill or utensils that are not covered by food will smoke if grease or food residue falls on them. T o minimize the exposed area, use utensils that are approximately the size of the food item.
12
Grill
Use grill accessory for cooking meat, poultry , fish, vegetables, or fruits. T o use, place food on grill and slide in rack guides. Grill design directs grease and juices away from food. Grill tines create grill marks on underside of food while cooking. Wells on sides of grill collect grease and juices. After grill cools remove grill from oven and pour off grease and juices after each cooking cycle or before wells fill.
WARNING
T o avoid severe burns, wear fireproof oven mitts or use pan grips when handling grill, utensils, racks, glass shields, and door. Allow oven to cool before reaching into oven. Oven interior becomes hot during operation.
CAUTION
T o avoid damaging grill surface, do not use grill without food.
13
Removing Grill and Rack
WARNING
T o avoid severe burns, wear fireproof oven mitts or use pan grips when handling grill, utensils, racks, glass shields, and door. Oven interior becomes hot during operation.
T o avoid burns and damage to countertop, do not remove grill until cool. Grease and juices can splash and burn skin. A hot grill will burn or discolor countertops and combustible surfaces.
Grill and rack must be tilted to place in or remove from oven. Grill tabs and bend in rack contact guide stop when sliding grill and rack out of oven. Guide stop prevents rack and grill from sliding out of oven unintentionally.
Utensils
Use correct cookware to achieve best cooking results. If unsure of cookware see “Cooking Guide” section and choose similar food type.
• Use dark metal pans for searing foods, flat grilling sandwiches, cooking pizza, stir frying, and to sauté.
• Use shiny metal pans to create golden brown surfaces on baked goods.
• Use metal skewers for kabobs.
• Use glass utensils to steam or bake food. Glass does not convey heat to food as well as metal.
• Use properly sized utensils. Areas on grill or utensils that are not covered by food will smoke if grease or food residue falls on them. T o minimize the exposed area, use utensils that are approximately the size of the food item.
CAUTION
After grill cools remove grill from oven and pour off grease and juices after each cooking cycle or before wells fill. If grill is removed when wells are full, grease and juices can spill into oven. If wells become full, allow grill to cool and use baster or towels to remove grease and juices from grill.

Care and Cleaning
Clean Amana Wave Oven™ frequently to maximize oven life, performance, and efficiency . A dirty oven cooks inefficiently because moisture, spills, and grease shield radiant energy . If oven is not cleaned frequently , residual grease in Amana Wave Oven™ will smoke during and after cooking.
WARNING
T o avoid electrical shock which can cause severe personal injury or death, unplug power cord or open circuit breaker to oven before cleaning.
T o avoid severe burns, wear fire proof oven mitts or use pan grips when handling utensils, racks, glass shields, and door. Allow oven to cool before reaching into oven. Oven interior can become hot during operation.

• Avoid food or food residue on glass shields. Because glass shields become very hot, food that falls onto glass shield will create smoke. Check shield for food residue before cooking or after oven cools.
• Do not over season or over baste. Because utensils become very hot, seasonings or marinades on exposed utensil will create smoke.
• Use properly sized utensils. Areas on grill or utensils not covered by food will smoke if grease or food residue falls on them. To minimize the exposed area, use utensils close to the size of the food item.
Cleaning Oven Cavity and Exterior
Before cleaning, allow oven to cool for 15 minutes. Clean surfaces with a clean cloth, sponge, or nylon pad, and mild detergent diluted in warm water. Use degreaser if heavily soiled. Wipe interior with damp, clean cloth or sponge thoroughly and dry after cleaning.
• Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners, or cleaners containing ammonia.
• Remove excess water from cloth before wiping oven.
• Always clean oven cavity with shields in place to avoid damaging halogen bulbs.
Cleaning Grill
Before cleaning, allow grill to cool for 15 minutes. Wear fireproof oven mitts or use pan grips when hot. Grill is dishwasher safe.
1. Pour off grease and juices from grill.
2. Wipe grill surface with paper towel.
• If heavily soiled, wash with mild detergent diluted in warm water, and clean cloth or sponge.
• T o remove baked-on material, use a plastic nonabrasive cleaning pad. Do not use an abrasive pads. Abrasive pads can damage nonstick grill surface.
Cleaning Oven Racks
Clean oven racks and rack guides with detergent diluted in warm water or in dishwasher. Scrub with soft nylon pad to remove baked-on material. Do not remove oven rack guides.
Cleaning Glass Shields
Wipe shields regularly when cooking greasy food for best performance. Most cleaning does not require removing upper shield.
For more thorough cleaning, remove oven racks and then glass shields. Remove upper shield before lower shield so any falling material is caught by lower shield. If food falls onto bulb gently brush off with clean dry cloth. See “Removing Glass Shields” section.
Clean surfaces with a clean cloth, sponge, or nylon pad, and mild detergent diluted in warm water. Glass cleaner can also be used oven surfaces. Wipe dry after cleaning.
• Use degreasers for grease laden surfaces.
