Oven Light Bulb Replacement

Power Failure

Replace only with a 10-watt, halogen light bulb designed for appliance oven use. DO NOT USE a standard household light bulb in any oven or any bulb over 10 watts.

To Replace the Light Bulb:

1.Make sure that oven selector is in the OFF position (oven light off).

2.Remove the light cover.

3.Remove the burned-out bulb. Replace it with a 10-watt halogen appliance light bulb only. Do not touch bulb with fingers. Follow bulb manufacturer's instruc- tions.

4.Replace cover. (See Caution).

CAUTION

Before replacing the light bulb, be certain the Oven Light Switch is in the off position. Let bulb and cover cool completely before touching. If the light bulb glass comes loose from the base, turn the power to the oven OFF at the circuit breaker panel before attempting to remove the bulb base from the socket.

In the event of a power failure, only the standard burners can be lighted manu- ally. It is necessary to light each standard burner individually.

If the range's cooktop is being used when the power failure occurs turn all of the burner control knobs to the OFF position. The standard burners can be lighted

by holding a match at the ports and turning the control knob to the position. Wait until the flame is burning all the way around the burner cap before adjust- ing the flame to the desired height. The two ExtraLow® burners on the left side cannot be used during a power failure. Be sure to turn them OFF if a power fail- ure occurs because they will not turn back on until the control knobs are turned OFF and then turned back on again. See “What to do if you Smell Gas”, inside front cover.

If you have low gas pressure, contact your gas company.
