longer if the room is warm, a large food load is added, doors are

To replace the burned-out LED bulb with an LED bulb,
order Part Number W10565137 (3.6 watts).

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 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,

with a maximum of 40 watts.
