Maintaining Your System
Cleaning
Cleaning the media center
• Use only a soft, dry cloth to clean the outside surfaces of the media center.
• Do not use any sprays near the system. Do not use any solvents, chemicals, or cleaning
solutions containing alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives.
• Do not allow liquids to spill into any openings.
Cleaning the speakers
• Clean the surface of your speakers with a soft, damp cloth. You can use an ammonia-free
window cleaner on a soft cloth to maintain the finish.
• Do not use any sprays near the speakers. Do not use any solvents, chemicals, or cleaning
solutions containing alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives.
• Do not allow liquids to spill into any openings.
• The speaker grilles require no special care, although you may vacuum them carefully
if necessary.
Cleaning discs
• Handle discs by their edges to prevent fingerprints and scratches (Figure 33a).
• To remove stains or fingerprints from the surface of a disc, use a soft and dry lint-free,
cloth. Wipe in straight movements from the center of the disc to the outside (Figure 33b).
Do not use any chemical products; they can damage the disc.
• Do not use a circular motion to clean (Figure 33c).
• Do not write on or attach labels to the surface of a disc.
• To minimize exposure to dust and dirt, return discs to their cases after use. Store each disc
in its case, away from direct sunlight, high temperatures, and humidity.
