WARNING
Power Test
All Amana and Menumaster microwave oven power outputs are rated using the IEC705 standards. Using the IEC705
test method requires precision measurements and equipment that is not practical to be performed in the field. Using
the test shown below will indicate if the oven performance is satisfactory.
Test equipment required:
•1000 ml test container and thermometer (Amana power test kit R0157397 Fahrenheit / Menumaster power
test kit M95D5 Celsius).
•Digital watch / watch with a second hand for use on ovens with electromechanical timers.
Important Notes:
• Low line voltage will cause low temperature rise / power output.
• Ovens must be on a dedicated circuit, properly grounded, and polarized. Other equipment on the same
circuit may cause a low temperature rise / power output.
•This test and results are not a true IEC705 test procedure and are only intended to provide servicers with an
easy means of determining if the microwave oven cooking output is correct.
Procedure
1. Fill the test container to the 1000 ml line with cool tap water.
NOTE:Water temperature should be approximately 60°F / 16°C
2. Using the thermometer, stir water for five to ten seconds; measure, and record the temperature (T1).
3. Place test container of water in the center of oven cavity and close door.
4. Heat the water for a 33-second full power cycle.
NOTE:Use a digital watch or a watch with a second hand for ovens with electromechanical timers.
1. At end of the cycle, remove test container. Using the thermometer, stir water for five to ten seconds and record
temperature (T2).
2. Subtract the starting water temperature (T1), from the ending water temperature (T2) to obtain the temperature

Convection Temperature Test
NOTE: It is absolutely necessary to own and use a
thermocouple type oven tester to accurately
measure oven temperature. No other type of
thermometer can take its place.
Convection Temperature Calibration
NOTE: It is normal for the average oven temperature
to vary from the oven setting by as much as
25°F (14°C). Difference will not effect cooking
since recipes are written with this difference in
mind.
NOTE: Before testing an oven to check calibration,
inspect the RTD for proper mounting.
1. Place one wire rack in center position. Remove
any other racks and utensils.
2. Clip thermocouple to the center rack and run lead
outside oven door, or wrap thermocouple around
rack and have tip of thermocouple extend upward
towards top of cavity approximately 1".

If the average temperature is too high or too low the
oven temperature offset needs to be calibrated.
Fahrenheit
NOTE: Offset temperature range is +40°F to -40°F
and advances in 2 and 3° increments.
Celsius
NOTE: Offset temperature range is +22°C to -22°C
and advances in 1 and 2° increments.
5. Press

pad to save offset changes.
NOTE: Retest the oven after any offset changes are
made.
Fahrenheit Example:
• Oven temperature is set for 450°F
• Average of temperature test is 475°F
• Offset setting must be reduced by 25°F
• If offset is shown as 10°, press the "0" pad until -15
is shown in the display (10 – 25 = –15)
Celsius Example:
• Oven temperature is set for 230°C
• Average of temperature test is 240°C
• Offset setting must be reduced by 10°C
• If offset is shown as 5°, press the "0" pad until -5 is
shown in the display (5– 10= –5)
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death; disconnect power to oven and discharge capacitor
before servicing, unless testing requires power.
CAUTION
!
All repairs as described in this troubleshooting section are to be performed only after the caution procedures one through
eight listed below have been followed.
1. Check grounding before checking for possible causes.
2. Be careful of the high voltage circuit.
3. Discharge high voltage capacitor.
4. When checking the continuity of the switches or the high voltage transformer, disconnect one lead wire from these parts
and then check continuity with the AC plug removed. To do otherwise may result in a false reading or damage to your
meter.
5. Do not touch any parts of the circuitry on the P.C. Board circuit since static electric discharge may damage this control
panel. Always touch yourself to ground while working on this panel to discharge any static charge in your body.
6. 208/230 VAC is present in the high voltage circuit board, power relay and primary circuit of low voltage transformer.
7. When troubleshooting, be cautious of possible electrical hazard.
8. When testing convection operation, convection fan may start at any time or if oven is hot.
Error Codes
During operation, the display may show the following service codes:
NOTE: Before scheduling service for any error codes, instruct customer to unplug oven for 1 minute, reconnect
power, and retest. If unit operates properly, no service call is required.
