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.
Great to be able to set channels again, on an old but stoll fine working TV

Measuring the temperature
If the temperature is measured using a standard, single thermometer, this should be put in a glass of water centrally placed inside the cabinet. This will reflect the temperature inside the food products. Do not place the thermometer hanging or lying directly on the shelf.
Hints:
· · · · Distribute foodstuffs to allow cold air to circulate freely between the products. Do not place food products directly against the cooling plate on the rear wall since they may freeze in this case. Also never put warm products into the cabinet. Wait until they have cooled down. Cover all foods properly to avoid odours and flavours from tainting other food.
Switching off
Switch off the cabinet by pressing the power switch. Keep the button pressed for approx. 1 second. Power to the cabinet is completely interrupted only when the power plug is disconnected or the fuse is removed.
