Replacing the Light Bulb - Freezer

How to Check or Replace the Light Bulb in your Amana Freezer

Before replacing the light bulb, check to see if it is loose and tighten it if needed. If it needs to be replaced, be sure to replace it with an appliance bulb of the same size, shape, and wattage (no greater than 40 watts). Not all appliance bulbs will fit your freezer. For instructions on how to Change the Light Bulb, see your Owner's Manual.
