The oven lights
Both oven lights will come on when you open the

Switch under the oven control panel. Push the
switch again and/or close the lower oven door to

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. Unplug appliance or disconnect at the main
power supply.
2. Lower oven only: Remove the glass bulb
cover in the back of the oven by pushing the
wire holder to the side and pulling out bulb
cover.
3. Using a leather-palmed glove, remove the light
bulb from its socket. Replace the bulb with a
40-watt (130 V) appliance bulb.
4. Lower oven only: Replace the bulb cover and
snap the wire holder into place.
5. Plug in appliance or reconnect at the main
power supply.
NOTE:
l
The oven light should not be used during the
Self-Cleaning cycle. Use during the Self-
Cleaning cycle will shorten the life of the bulb.
l
If you need to replace the cooktop light, contact
an authorized Whirlpool service technician.
