Replacing the Lamp

The Cineos 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. This will allow you to prepare to replace the lamp or take action right away. The message will dis- appear within 6 seconds. It will reappear each time the TV is turned on until the lamp is replaced.

To order a replacement lamp, call the Philips Customer Care Center at
