➔ Replace the light bulb.

For products using a lamp, the light bulb can be replaced by the user when it reaches the end of its life.
Check how to replace the bulb in the user manual.
However, if an LED lamp is fitted, it should be checked by a service technician through a visit.

How to replace the light bulb
Remove the light bulb cover and bulb and replace the bulb with a light bulb of the correct capacity.
Using a light bulb with a larger capacity may cause a safety issue.
Also, using a light bulb with a smaller capacity lowers the brightness when compared to the previous lighting level.
1. Turn off the refrigerator.
2. Press the bump below the light bulb cover inside and separate it by pulling it forward.
3. Twist and pull the light bulb to separate it.
4. Reassemble in the reserve order of disassembly.
