Changing the Backlight

The GP-37W3’s backlight should not be replaced by a user.

Although a long-life cold-cathode tube is used for the backlight, it may need to be
replaced at some time, depending on the operating environment.

The service life of the backlight is as follows (The period when the brightness
decreases to about half the brightness of a new product after continuous illumina-
tion at normal temperature):

30,000 hours (Approx. 2.8 years)

For backlight replacement, contact your local GP distributor.
