Age-related concern: 13-year old filter had never been serviced.
Used a phillips screwdriver to remove 4 retaining screws located on the top leading edge of the unit, just above the door. Note the screws on the far left and far right are shorter than the middle two. After removing and cleaning the plastic vent, the small, square charcoal filter is revealed in the center, and is easily removed (noting its installation position first!). Take advantage of the opportunity to thoroughly clean the inside using a cloth soaked in degreaser before replacing the filter, the vent, and the 4 screws.

Lights bulbs burned out
Really easy for a 75-year old female; just spent more time reading the online manual than actually installing the light bulbs to find out where to access the light bulbs.

The close door warning kept coming on and the microwave would not run
Don't waste your time with other parts stores online. Partselect sells quality parts and they arrived 2 days early. I purchase a door switch from another online store and the switch was defective.

Range light bulbs were burned out
We needed a phillips head screw driver to remove the single screw holding the light bulb cover in place.
Removing the old bulbs was a little work, because they had come loose from the sockets. We unplugged the microwave, so we could grip the sockets with a tool. I think my husband used a needle nose plier for this.
The new bulbs screwed in easily, and then we refastened the light bulb cover with the phillips head screw driver.

I had broken the glass turn table.
I ordered another one and placed it inside the microwave. It works and fits perfectly. I received the order exactly as scheduled.
