Oven light bulb replacement
9 CAUTION
• Make sure the appliance and lights are cool and
power to the appliance has been turned off
before replacing the light bulb(s). Failure to do so
could result in electrical shock or burns.
• The covers must be in place when using the
appliance.
• The covers serve to protect the light bulb from
breaking.
• The covers are made of glass. Handle carefully to
avoid breaking. Broken glass could cause an
injury.
• The light socket is live when the door is open.
Replace only with a recommended light bulb designed for
appliance oven use. DO NOT use a standard household
light bulb in any oven. Call Thermador Customer Care
Center at 1-800-735-4328 or your nearest Thermador
dealer to determine the proper replacement bulb for your
range. You will need to know your range’s model number
and serial number.
To replace the light bulb
Use only 10W, 12V G4 light bulbs. Use a clean, dry cloth to
handle halogen light bulbs. This will increase the life of the
bulb.
1. Turn off circuit breaker.
2. Remove the oven racks.
3. Slide the tip of a flat blade screw driver between the
holder clip and the lamp housing (figure, a).
4. Support the glass lens cover with fingers along the
bottom edge to prevent the cover from falling to the
bottom of the oven. Gently twist the flat blade screw
driver to loosen the glass lens cover.
5. Remove the glass lens cover.
6. Remove the bulb by grasping and sliding the bulb
straight back until the two prongs have cleared the
ceramic holder (figure, b).
7. DO NOT touch the glass of the new replacement bulb
with your fingers. It may cause the bulb to fail when it
first lights. Grasp the replacement bulb with a clean
dry cloth. Locate the two prongs in the ceramic
holder, gently poking until the two prongs locate in
the ceramic socket.
8. Press down to seat the bulb (figure, c).
9. Slide the protective lens into the holder clip and push
the other end until the fixing clip snaps back into the
housing (figure, d).
10. Turn on circuit breaker.
