Electrical Shock and
Personal Injury Hazard
l
Make sure oven and light bulb are cool
and power to the range has been turned
off before replacing the light bulb. Failure
to do so could result in electrical shock or
burns.

The bulb cover must be in place when
using the oven. The cover protects the
bulb from breaking, and from high oven
temperatures. Because bulb cover is
made of glass, be careful not to drop it.
Broken glass could cause injury.
To replace the oven light:
1. Disconnect appliance at the main power
supply.
2. Remove the glass bulb cover in the back of
the oven by screwing it out counterclockwise.
3. Remove the light bulb from its socket,
Replace the bulb with a 40-watt appliance
bulb.
4. Replace the bulb cover by screwing it in
clockwise. Reconnect appliance at the main
power supply.
NOTE: The oven light will not work during the
Self-Cleaning cycle.
