extensively in a hot environment.

Rec mode with LIGHT MODE set to ON or

Replacing the Bulb
DANGER:
Use only replacement bulb (PART NO. VLLW0015) supplied by Panasonic to reduce risk
of fire. Handle new bulb with cloth or tissue as skin oils will decrease bulb life.
Remove lens cover and allow bulb to cool before replacing to avoid possible burn hazard.
