Replacing the lamp

Your TV uses a lamp with a limited lifetime to illuminate the
picture. A lifetime counter in the TV records the operating
time of the lamp. One hundred hours before the lamp
reaches the end of its life, a warning message will appear on
screen. It will reappear each time the TV is turned on until
the lamp is replaced.
