Service and Warranty
CARE & MAINTENANCE
If you play the speakers with the grilles off exercise great care.
NEVER touch the drive units which can easily be damaged.
If this does cure the problem, back off the volume level at the
subwoofer.
Please read the relevant sections of your AV amplifier manual
and familiarise yourself with the various issues. If you are
unsure, consult your dealer for help.
CONNECTING WIRES
When wall mounting a loudspeaker the connecting cables
may be unacceptably obvious.
It may be less obstrusive to route cables from the loudspeaker
to the ceiling and then within or immediately underneath the
ceiling or covering. The cable may then return to floor level at
a convenient room corner. The loudspeaker cabinets can be cleaned with a damp cloth
or with a spray furniture polish and a soft cloth. Apply the
spray sparingly to the cloth and then polish the cabinet. Never
apply spray directly to the cabinet.
