Do NOT use abrasive cleansers or cleaners containing ammonia. These could damage finish. NEVER pour water into microwave oven bottom. Do NOT use water pressure type cleaning systems. An authorized servicer must inspect equipment annually. Record all inspections and repairs for future use. This microwave oven�s nominal microwave output (IEC705) is 1800 W. The switching operation of this microwave oven can cause voltage fluctuations on the supply line. The operation of this oven under unfavorable voltage supply conditions can have adverse effects.

Magnetron Monitoring
What is it?
This microwave oven automatically checks power being utilized by the magnetrons during a preprogrammed cooking cycle. This function works ONLY using preprogrammed pads. The magnetron monitoring system compares the amount of power used during a cooking cycle against the amount of power calibrated upon install. The monitoring system detects when not enough power is being used by the microwave oven. The oven indicates this by displays CALL SEru and beeping intermittently.

Mistakes can be corrected in four ways: Press correct pad to begin correct cooking cycle. Open oven door and do not close it. After approximately 1 minute, the cooking time will clear and a new cooking cycle can be started. Open oven door to interrupt cooking cycle, close it, and press correct pad.

What does it mean?

cooking cycle and press correct pad.

The root cause could be a failed magnetron or a failed high power transformer. This requires maintenance and repair to the microwave oven to solve the problem. Until repaired or inspected, the oven shall intermittently continue to display CALL SEru during and after a cooking cycle. During the time CALL SEru displays the oven can still be used but food temperature and quality should be consistently monitored. The error may only be cleared by an authorized Amana servicer.

Interrupting Operation
Oven fan and light will continue to operate.

Press the STOP pad to interrupt oven operation, or open oven door.
