Care & Maintenance
Looking After Your Loudspeaker
0 This speaker is hand-finished with a genuine Piano-Lacquer. As with all real
wood furniture finishes: exposure to direct sunlight, heat, cold and varying
humidity can affect the natural properties of the speaker cabinet. We advise
protecting the speaker from extreme variances in temperature and environment
conditions.
0 We advise that you do not place anything on the surface of the cabinets. to
protect from damage. Treated with care, the genuine Piano-Lacquer finish will
last a lifetime. They will age naturally and subtly, retaining the properties
of the beautiful high gloss finish.
0 Your Wharfedale loudspeakers use a specially hardwearing sealed finish. They
should not be waxed or treated with spray polishes which will smear and dim
their lustrous finish. Polish them with a dry or barely moist cloth to remove
dust and finger marks, etc.
0 Occasionally, remove the loudspeaker grilles and brush them gently with a
soft brush before replacing them carefully.
0 Avoid getting any liquid behind the grille. If you accidentally spill liquid
on your loudspeakers, take them to your dealer for attention before using them
again.
Servicing
0 Do not open the speakers: there are no user serviceable parts inside. Never
touch the driver units either with an object or your hands.
0 In the unlikely event of your unit develops a fault you should return it to
your Wharfedale dealer using the original packing to ensure safe shipping.
0 The terms of your guarantee may vary in different countries. However, in all
cases the guarantee excludes: – Liability for damage or loss occurring in
