Frequently Asked Questions - RC517MP AMANA

How to use a preset key?
Open the door, place the food, close the door. The display should show 'ITEM'. Press the MENU 1 or MENU 2 key if necessary, then the numeric key corresponding to the desired item. The oven starts automatically. At the end, 'EOC' is displayed.
How to set a manual cooking time?
Open the door, close it. Press TIME ENTER, enter the time with numeric keys. If needed, press POWER LEVEL to choose a level (10-100%). Finally, press START.
What to do if the oven does not heat?
First check the power supply: fuse or circuit breaker, correct connection. If everything is OK, place a glass of water and heat for 1 minute. If the water does not heat, the oven is defective and requires a certified technician.
How to clean the splash guard?
Unplug the oven. Remove the splash guard by pressing it backwards and lowering it. Wash it in very hot water with a mild detergent. Rinse and dry. Do not put it in the dishwasher. Reinstall it by engaging the tabs into the slots.
How to modify a preset cooking time?
Open the door. Press key 1 for 5 seconds (beep). Press ADD, then the menu and numeric key. Enter the new time and power level. Press START to save. Close the door or press RESET.
What does 'HOT' display mean?
The magnetron has overheated. The oven interrupts cooking and runs the fan until cooling. Once the temperature returns to normal, the oven automatically resumes operation. If the problem persists, contact a certified repair person.
How to replace the oven bulb?
Unplug the oven. Wear gloves. Remove the screw of the access plate at the back, remove the plate. Replace the bulb with a new 250 V, 40 W bulb (turn counterclockwise). Close the plate and screw it back. Plug the oven back in.
Can I use metal containers?
No. Metal containers or hermetically sealed containers (jars, eggs in shells) can explode. Use only microwave-safe dishes. Remove metal ties from bags.
How to program a pause during cooking?
In programming mode (key 1 for 5 sec), after entering the duration and power level of a stage, press PAUSE. The pause will occur at mid-stage. Press STATUS to add other stages. Finish with START.
What to do if the oven does not accept key presses?

AMANA RC517MP - Warning - 1

Caution

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE IN THE OVEN CAVITY:

a. DO NOT overcook food. Carefully attend equipment if paper, plastic, or other combustible materials are placed inside the oven to facilitate cooking.
b. Remove wire twist-ties from paper or plastic bags before placing bag in oven.

c. KEEP oven DOOR CLOSED, turn oven off, and disconnect the power cord, or shut off power at the fuse or circuit breaker panel, if materials inside the oven should ignite. Fire may spread if door is opened.
d. DO NOT use the cavity for storage. DO NOT leave paper products, cooking utensils, or food in the cavity when not in use.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

AMANA RC517MP - IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - 1

Caution

TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING:

  1. Briskly stir or pour liquids before heating with microwave energy to prevent spontaneous boiling or eruption. Do not overheat. If air is not mixed into a liquid, liquid can erupt in oven or after removal from oven.
  2. Do not deep fat fry in oven. Fat could overheat and be hazardous to handle.
  3. Do not cook or reheat eggs in shell or with an unbroken yolk using microwave energy. Pressure may build up and erupt. Pierce yolk with fork or knife before cooking.
  4. Pierce skin of potatoes, tomatoes, and similar foods before cooking with microwave energy. When skin is pierced, steam escapes evenly.
  5. Do not operate equipment without load or food in oven cavity.
  6. Use only popcorn in packages designed and labeled for microwave use. Popping time varies depending on oven wattage. Do not continue to heat after popping has stopped. Popcorn will scorch or burn. Do not leave oven unattended.

  7. Do not use regular cooking thermometers in oven. Most cooking thermometers contain mercury and may cause an electrical arc, malfunction, or damage to oven.

  8. Do not heat baby bottles in oven.
  9. Do not use metal utensils in oven except when recommended by microwave food manufacturers.
  10. Never use paper, plastic, or other combustible materials that are not intended for cooking.
  11. When cooking with paper, plastic, or other combustible materials, follow manufacturer's recommendations on product use.
  12. Do not use paper towels which contain nylon or other synthetic fibers. Heated synthetics could melt and cause paper to ignite.
  13. Do not heat sealed containers or plastic bags in oven. Food or liquid could expand quickly and cause container or bag to break. Pierce or open container or bag before heating.
  14. To avoid pacemaker malfunction, consult physician or pacemaker manufacture about effects of microwave energy on pacemaker.

PRECAUTIONS TO AVOID POSSIBLE EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE MICROWAVE ENERGY

a. DO NOT attempt to operate this oven with the door open since open-door operation can result in harmful exposure to microwave energy. It is important not to defeat or tamper with the safety interlocks.
b. DO NOT place any object between the oven front face and the door or allow soil or cleaner residue to accumulate on sealing surfaces.

c. DO NOT operate the oven if it is damaged. It is particularly important that the oven door close properly and that there is no damage to the: (1) door (bent), (2) hinges and latches (broken or loosened), (3) door seals and sealing surfaces.

d. The oven should NOT be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified service personnel.

Earthing Instructions

AMANA RC517MP - Earthing Instructions - 1

Warning

This equipment must be earthed.

RC517*/RC519* requires a dedicated 230 volt, 16 amp 50 hertz circuit. Oven main lead wires are colored as follows:

  • Earth—Green and Yellow
  • Neutral—Blue
    • Live—Brown

If oven main lead wire colors do not correspond with terminal plug markings or colors, match plug terminals according to following markings:

• E—Earth
- N—Neutral
• L—Live

Unpacking Equipment

  • Inspect equipment for damage such as dents in door or dents inside oven cavity.
  • Report any dents or breakage to source of purchase immediately. Do not attempt to use oven if damaged.
  • Remove all materials from oven interior.
  • If oven has been stored in extremely cold area, wait a few hours before connecting power.

Equipment Placement

  • Do not install equipment next to or above source of heat, such as pizza oven or deep fat fryer. This could cause microwave oven to operate improperly and could shorten life of electrical parts.
  • Allow air flow around oven. Air flows around electric components. At least 1 12 inch of clearance is required at top and sides of equipment to provide proper ventilation. With restricted air flow oven may not operate properly and life of electrical parts is reduced.
  • Allow 6.5 centimeters (2 ^9/16 inches) between air discharge on back of equipment and back wall.
  • Do not block or obstruct oven filter. Allow access for cleaning.

Radio Interference

Microwave operation may cause interference to radio, television, or similar equipment. Reduce or eliminate interference by doing the following:

  • Clean door and sealing surfaces of oven according to instructions in Care and Cleaning section.
  • Place radio, television, etc. as far as possible from oven.
  • Use a properly installed antenna on radio, television, etc. to obtain stronger signal reception.

AMANA RC517MP - Air Intake Filter - 1

Warning

To avoid electrical shock which can cause severe personal injury or death, do not remove outer case at any time. Only authorized servicer should remove outer case.

During operation, display may show service codes:

S1
CS
PCE1
PCE5
PCE6
FL
FH
PL
-HOT
HI
LO

Contact an authorized servicer if display shows any code except "HOT", "HI", and "LO". Service must be performed before using oven.

  • If display shows "HOT", oven's magnetron tube is overheated. Oven automatically interrupts cooking sequence and turns on cooling fan until magnetron tube reaches normal temperature. When magnetron tube cools to normal temperature, oven resumes normal operation.

- If display shows "HI" or "LO", input voltage is too high or too low. Because cooking results vary from the normal cooking pattern, oven is not usable during this condition. Normal operation returns once voltage returns to normal range.

When contacting supplier, provide product information including model, serial, and manufacturing numbers, and date of purchase. Model, serial, and manufacturing numbers are located on product serial plate. Warranty service must be performed by authorized servicer. Amana also recommends contacting authorized servicer if service is required after warranty expires.
