Your TV uses a projection lamp as its light source. As with any lamp, it has limited life and needs to be replaced when the Lamp indicator flashes or the screen becomes darker. Note the following:
❑After turning on your TV, it may take a while (1 minute or less) before the picture appears.
❑When the projection lamp wears out, the screen goes dark. Replace the lamp with a new Sony
✍The light emitted from the lamp is quite bright when your TV is in use. To avoid eye discomfort or injury, do not look into the light housing when the power is on.
