Indicators
The indicators show the current status of your TV. If there is a change in the
condition or a problem with the TV, the indicators will flash or light up in
the manner described below to let you know that it requires your attention.
Projection Lamp Your TV uses a projection lamp as its light source. As with any lamp, it has
lifespan 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 XL-2400 replacement lamp (not supplied).
