Conclusion Care and Maintenance FCC AND CANADA EMC COMPLIANCE INFORMATION Very little maintenance is required. To maintain the finish of the loudspeakers, wipe them carefully with a soft lint-free polishing cloth. Occasionally, and to remove fingermarks etc., wipe the cabinets with a barely damp clean soft cloth and finish with a lint-free polishing cloth. NEVER use any form of spray, furniture polish, saturated polishing cloth, or the like. Doing so will dull and streak the fine finish of the cabinets.
