511 and 550 Model Freezer Light Bulb
The light bulb in the freezer compartment of models 511 and 550 is at the top front of the freezer. There is no light diffuser. The bulb is exposed. To see the bulb, use a small mirror to identify the bulb location.
Temperature Control Dial Light Bulb
Factory Certified Service is recommended to replace the bulbs on a temperature or control dial. The bulb itself is easy to change, but getting to the bulb requires partial disassembly of panels and shrouds, depending on the model configuration.
Refer to the product Use and Care Guide for further information.
