• Diffuses and softens the bulb output for more even interior lighting
• Helps prevent direct glare from the bulb and reduces hot spots
• Common symptom: cracked, melted, missing, or rattling shield that exposes the bulb

What's included:

• One light shield

Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting replacement
• Remove bulb carefully to access and seat the shield; avoid excessive force
• Use only the exact replacement part designed for your model to ensure proper fit
• If the existing mounting clips or brackets are damaged, replace them before reinstalling the shield
