Running-In; Magnetic Shielding; Maintenance; Environmental Information And Disposal - Dali E Série Mode D'emploi

When the cables are connected, turn on the system and listen to the loudspeakers before final
mounting to make sure that all connections are correct. Insert the loudspeaker in the ceiling/wall
opening and align the loudspeaker as described in chapter 4.4.
NOTE: Be careful not to touch the drivers during installation. When the loudspeaker is aligned,
tighten the 4 screws in the loudspeaker brackets with a 3 mm Allen key/bit so that the speaker is
firmly mounted in place. Be careful to avoid over-tightening the screws and shredding the threads.

You should expect the sound quality from your new speakers to gradually improve during the first
period of use. Nothing particular has to be done in order to run in the speakers – but expect up
to 100 hours of playback (depending on playback level) before full performance level is reached.

The speaker drive units produce a magnetic field which may interfere with CRT televisions/
monitors, hard drives, audio and video tapes as well as swipe cards etc. Therefore keep such
items away from the speakers to avoid damage. LCD and plasma televisions/monitors are not
affected by magnetic fields.

Cleaning the speaker surfaces can be done with ordinary household cleaning agents. Avoid using
products that are abrasive, or contain acid, alkali or anti-bacterial agents. Avoid using aerosols.
Avoid using cleaning agents directly on the drive units and clean them with extreme care,
particularly the tweeter. The grille may be cleaned using a vacuum cleaner or a normal clothes
brush.
