3. Replace the burned-out LED bulb(s) with a bulb of the same
size, shape and wattage.
To replace the burned-out LED bulb with an LED bulb,
order Whirlpool part number W10565137 (3.6 watts).
NOTE: Some LED replacement bulbs are not
recommended for wet/damp environments. The
refrigerator and freezer compartments are considered
to be wet/damp environments. If using a brand of LED
bulb other than the Whirlpool recommended LED bulb,
before installation, read and follow all instructions on
the LED packaging.
If an incandescent bulb is used to replace an LED bulb,
use only incandescent bulbs for household appliances
with a maximum of 40 watts.
4. Replace the light shield.
5. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power.
Power Interruptions
If the power will be out for 24 hours or less, keep the door or
doors closed (depending on your model) to help food stay cold
and frozen.
If the power will be out for more than 24 hours, do one of the
following:
Remove all frozen food and store it in a frozen food locker.
Place 2 lbs (907 g) of dry ice in the freezer for every cubic
foot (28 L) of freezer space. This will keep the food frozen
for 2 to 4 days.
If neither a food locker nor dry ice is available, consume or
can perishable food at once.
REMEMBER: A full freezer stays cold longer than a partially
filled one. A freezer full of meat stays cold longer than a freezer
full of baked goods. If you see that food contains ice crystals, it
may be refrozen, although the quality and flavor may be
affected. If the condition of the food is poor, dispose of it.
