5. The inside light is not working.
Perform the checks for problem 1, and then:
• Disconnect the appliance from the power
supply.
To inspect the bulb, refer to the instructions
and illustration on the attached table.
• Check the bulb and replace it, if necessary, with
a new one. Replace using maximum 15W bulb.

compartment

expansion in the refrigerant circuit are
normal.
