SHOCK OR BURN HAZARD:
Before replacing oven light bulb, disconnect the electrical
power to the oven at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Failure to do so may result in
electric shock or burn.

The glass cover and bulb should be removed when cool. Touching hot
glass with bare hands or a damp cloth can cause burns.
CAUTION
Oven Light Replacement
(on some models)
1. Disconnect power at the main fuse or circuit breaker
panel.
2. Remove oven racks.
3. Slide a flat blade screwdriver between the housing
and the glass light cover.
4. Support the glass light cover with two fingers to
prevent the cover from falling to the bottom of the
oven.
5. Gently twist the screwdriver blade to loosen the glass
light cover. Be careful not to chip the oven coating.
6. Remove the glass light cover.
7. Remove the bulb by firmly grasping and sliding the
bulb straight out until the two prongs have cleared
the ceramic holder.
8. Do not touch the glass of the new replacement bulb
with your fingers. It will cause the bulb to fail when it
lights. Grasp the replacement bulb with a clean towel
or facial tissue with the prongs facing down. Align
the two prongs in the ceramic holder, pressing gently
until the bulb is securely in the ceramic socket.
9. Slide the protective lens into the holder and push
until the clips snap into the housing.
10. Reconnect power.
NOTE:
The glass cover should be removed only when
cold. Wearing latex gloves may offer a better grip.
Before replacing the bulb, disconnect electrical power to
the oven at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Let
the bulb cool completely before removing it. For your
safety do not touch a hot bulb with a damp cloth. If you
do the bulb may break.
To remove:
Turn the glass cover counterclockwise 1/4 turn until the
tabs of the glass cover clear the grooves of the socket.
Remove the bulb.
To replace:
Put in a new 40-watt appliance bulb. Place the tabs of
the glass cover into the grooves of the socket. Turn the
glass cover clockwise 1/4 turn.
NOTE:
A 40-watt appliance bulb is smaller than a standard
40-watt household bulb.
Reconnect electrical power to the oven once the new
bulb is installed.
For improved lighting inside the oven, clean the glass
cover frequently using a wet cloth. This should be
done when the oven is completely cool.
