Lamp Life

The light source for this television is a lamp, which is par t of a lamp cartridge assembly. The life of the lamp can vary,
based on the lamp itself, the air temperature around the T V while it is operating, and your viewing patterns. Warmer air
or poor ventilation shorten the lamp life, as does tur ning the television on and off frequently. Mitsubishi warrants the
lamp for one (1) year from the date of original purchase at retail. It is likely that the lamp will last m uch longer than this.
