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.
BURN HAZARD: The glass cover and bulb should
be removed when cool. Touching hot glass with bare
hands or a damp cloth can cause burns.
To remove:
1 Turn the glass cover counterclockwise 1/4 turn
until the tabs of the glass cover clear the grooves
of the socket. Wearing latex gloves may offer a
better grip.
2 Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove the bulb
by pulling it straight out.
To replace:
1 Use a new 120/130-volt halogen bulb, not to
exceed 50 watts. Replace the bulb with the same
type of bulb that was removed. Your model will
have one of the two types shown on the right.
To determine the correct replacement bulb,
check the bulb terminals. Bulbs with 2 straight pin
terminals are G6.35 bulbs. Bulbs with 2 looped
terminals are G9 bulbs. (Do not interchange.) Be
sure the replacement bulb is rated 120 volts or
130 volts (NOT 12 volts).
2 Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove the bulb from
its packaging. Do not touch the bulb with bare
fingers. Oil from skin will damage the bulb and
shorten its life.
3 Push the bulb straight into the receptacle all the
way.
4 Place the tabs of the glass cover into the grooves
of the socket. Turn the glass cover clockwise
1/4 turn.
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.
5 Reconnect electrical power to the oven.
Probe
The temperature probe may be cleaned with soap
and water or a soap-filled scouring pad. Cool the
temperature probe before cleaning. Scour stubborn
spots with a soap-filled scouring pad, rinse and dry.
Do not immerse the temperature probe in water.
Do not store the temperature probe in the oven.
