Lamp

The light source for this television is a lamp, which is part of a lamp cartridge assembly. The life of the lamp can vary, based on the lamp itself, the air temperature around the TV while it is operating, and your viewing patterns. Warmer air or poor ventilation shorten the lamp life, as does turning the television on and off frequently. Mitsubishi warrants the lamp for one (1) year from the date of original TV purchase at retail.
