A reflector shield bounces heat back where it's wanted and protects nearby parts and surfaces from it. It belongs to the Electrolux group parts range. Shields are shaped to suit particular models, so match 4055906780 to the parts list for your appliance, or compare the old shield closely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat a reflector shield does\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeat travels in every direction, and a reflector shield is there to control it. By reflecting radiant heat back toward where it's needed, it improves efficiency and protects wiring, controls, panels and cabinetry from heat they weren't designed to take. A shield that's warped, cracked, badly corroded or missing can lead to slower heating, scorched or discoloured panels, melted insulation on nearby wiring, and hot spots on the outside of the appliance. If a shield was left out after a repair, it should go back in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux part 4055906780\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReflector shield\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed as SS (stainless steel)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor Electrolux group appliances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStainless steel (listed as SS)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRefitting a reflector shield\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwitch the appliance off at the wall and let it cool completely, and turn off the gas too if it's a gas appliance.
