3.

Replace bulb with a new40 watt appliance bulb.

4.

Replace glass shield over bulb and snap wire holder into place.

5. Turn power back on again at the main source (or plug the range back in).
6. The clock will then need to be reset. To reset, see

Setting the Clock and Minute

Timer

in this Use & Care Guide.

^CAUTION

Be sure the range is unplugged and all parts are COOL before replacing oven

light. Wear a leather-faced glove for protection against possible broken glass.
