UNPACKING

Most DALI models are delivered in pairs. The loudspeakers are typically marked  (L)

left or (R) right. Place the loudspeakers to the left and to the right as seen from the

listening position.

The DALI R1000 however, are marked A or B. In this case please check the paragraph

about placement.

For the floor standing models spikes are included in the packing - please check this

before discarding the packing.

MAINTENANCE

Use a dry soft piece of cloth (or a wrung up soft piece of cloth with a mild detergent)

for wiping off the dust and grease from the loudspeaker’s cabinet. Please be careful

when cleaning the loudspeaker units because the diaphragms are very sensitive.

The grilles can be vacuum cleaned and if necessary wiped with a piece of wrung up

fluff-free cloth with a mild detergent.

BREAK-IN PERIOD

A loudspeaker is a mechanical device and

requires a “break-in” period. During the first

period  of  use  you  will  therefore  notice  a

gradual improvement of the sound quality

of the loudspeakers.

Wear  is  not  a  problem  for  the  DALI

loudspeakers.  Actually,  regular  use  will

only extend their life.

If the loudspeakers have not been used for

quite  some  time,  they  may  need  a  short

break-in period again.
