Designed as a universal replacement, this bulb is perfect for those dealing with burnt-out fridge or freezer lights, offering a simple, DIY-friendly solution that keeps the interior illuminated for easier item retrieval.

FAQs
Is this bulb compatible with all refrigerators?
It is compatible with most models that utilize a standard E14 screw base. Always check your original bulb's markings or your appliance manual.
Can I use this in a standard lamp?
No, this bulb is specifically engineered for appliance environments and may not meet the safety or brightness requirements for general household lighting.
Does it produce heat?
It operates at a low 10W, producing minimal heat to prevent interference with the appliance's cooling performance.
How do I know if I have an E14 base?
The E14 base refers to a screw-in style with a diameter of 14 millimeters. If your current bulb measures approximately 14mm across the threads, it is likely an E14.
Is it safe for freezer use?
Yes, the PRF004 is specifically designed to withstand the cold temperatures and moisture found within freezer compartments.
Troubleshooting
Bulb does not turn on after installation
Ensure the bulb is screwed in fully and check that the appliance is properly connected to a power source.
Light flickers when the door is opened
Check the door switch mechanism for debris or misalignment, as the bulb itself is likely functioning correctly.
Bulb fits but is too dim
Verify if the appliance requires a higher wattage bulb, though most standard fridges are designed specifically for 10W-15W output.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before replacing your bulb, ensure that the appliance is unplugged from the power supply for safety. Locate the light cover inside your fridge or freezer, which may require a gentle press or slide to remove. Once the cover is off, unscrew the faulty bulb in a counter-clockwise motion.
Verify that the existing bulb base is an E14 (the standard 14mm screw base). Simply twist the Paxanpax PRF004 into the socket in a clockwise motion until firm—do not overtighten. Replace the protective cover and plug the appliance back in. To prolong the life of the bulb, avoid frequent "flickering" on and off and ensure the door seal remains clean so the light remains off during standard storage periods.
