Disposal
Cardboard box and packaging
You have opted for a durable and technically sophisticated product. In line with
national regulations regarding the disposal of packaging materials, we pay a
fee to authorised recyclers who collect packaging from dealers. However, we
recommend that you keep the original cardboard box and the rest of the pa-
ckaging materials so that the unit can, if necessary, be transported in the safest
possible conditions.
The unit
Important: The EU Directive 2002/96/EG governs the proper
re-acceptance, handling and recycling of used electronic
appliances.
Old electronic appliances must therefore be disposed of sepa-
rately. Never throw this set in the normal domestic waste. You
can hand in your old set free of charge at identifi ed collection
points or at your dealer if you buy a similar new set. Other
details about re-acceptance (also for non-EU countries) are
available from your local administration.
Cleaning
It is possible that the packaging material may leave marks on the surface of the
floor-standing speaker. This does not mean that the surface has been damaged.
These marks can be easily removed using water mixed with a little washing-up
liquid and applied using a soft cloth (e.g. microfibre).
Clean the surface of the aluminum Reference Sound loudspeaker system with a
damp, soft, clean cloth (without aggressive cleaning agents).
Because of electrostatic charge dust may sellte on the speaker grille.
You can gently suck it with a vacuum cleaner, if necessary.
