Good Practice Guide

Before connecting and using your loudspeakers, please bear the following points in mind:
Switch off the amplifier and all sources before making connections to your sound system. When you switch on the
system or change sources, set the volume control to minimum and turn up the level gradually.
The position of your Volume Control is NOT a reliable guide as to the maximum capabilities of your sound system. Playing
the system with extreme settings of volume and tone controls may damage the amplifier and loudspeakers.
Do not connect loudspeaker terminals to the mains supply.
Ensure that your loudspeakers are correctly wired and are in phase.
Do not subject your loudspeakers to excessive cold, heat or sunlight.
If you are shelf mounting your loudspeakers, make sure they are not placed on the same shelf as your source components.
Do not place heavy objects on top of loudspeaker cabinet s. If you play the loudspeakers with the grilles removed be
careful to protect the drive units from children and pets.
Do not use makeshift stands. Always fit a manufacturer's approved stand using the instructions and the fixings provided.
Your dealer will advise you.
Do not attempt to dismantle the loudspeaker. There are no user serviceable parts inside and you will invalidate the
warranty.
Some Front and all Centre loudspeakers are magnetically screened.You should site front loudspeakers at least 0.5 m away
from TV sets and magnetic storage media. All Wharfedale centre loudspeakers may be sited close to a TV screen with no
adverse effects.The specifications on Pages 20 and 21 have AV shielding details for your loudspeakers.
When connecting your loudspeakers, do not run cable across areas of open floor where they may be a source of danger.
Run them safely, around room boundaries if necessary.
