How to Replace the Bulb in a Panasonic Genius Premier Microwave

Over the course of its life, your Panasonic Genius Premier microwave may go through several light bulbs. Although a burned-out light bulb may seem like a small part of the microwave, it actually helps you visually confirm your cooking methods while using the microwave. In fact, many microwave recipes ask you to cook the food until it is done or until the cheese has melted, etc. If you notice that your Genius Premier's light has burned out, you can replace it by accessing the light cover under the vent grille.
