Abstract
An image display device includes a light source; a power supply section that supplies power to light source; a cooling fan that cools the light source; an input section; a drive section that supplies a voltage to cooling fan; a control section that controls drive section and power supply section. The control section sets a first power value for the output of the power supply section and also a first voltage value for the output of the drive section. The control section measures a time at which the light source has been lighted. If the measured value exceeds a threshold, the control section gradually increases the output of the power supply section up to a second power value that is greater than the first voltage value over a predetermined time.
