Warranty / Product control / Disposal
37
Your loudspeakers are maintenance-free. Changes in acoustical behaviour decrease over the years so that the hu-
man ear will probably change even more than the speaker actually does.
Clean your speakers only with a soft, dry and smooth cloth,
or with a dust brush. Do not use scouring powder, alcohol, benzene, French polish, or other
agents. Do not expose your speakers to a relatively high humidity. Temperature variations,
humidity and excessive sunlight may damage the speaker and result in optical changes.
In the case of malfunction of your speakers apply to an expert. Your special dealer will be
pleased to help you. If a loudspeaker should be destroyed through improper use by a second
person the repair requires special know-how in order to provide accurate performance of your speaker.
Warranty
The terms of warranty are regulated individually by the law in the different countries and by the terms of the interna-
tional ELAC representatives respectively. If you have not bought your appliance in Germany, please check the terms
with your retailer. Warranty can be given by any special retailer who has been authorised by ELAC or the respective
international representative to distribute ELAC products (EU contract retailers). In the case of warranty, the complete
appliance together with the warranty card and the receipt has to be handed over to the retailer.
Many of today’s modern furniture are coated with multiple varnishes and plastics which may be treated with chemical
agents. Some of these agents might contain substances which cauterize or soften the rubber feet. Therefore, we
would like to advise you to place an anti-slip mat underneath the loudspeaker.
Production Control
Every production step is controlled individually. Each part of a loudspeaker (e.g. driver or crossover network) is
tested several times, from the purchase until the final assembly. In the final control every loudspeaker is tested
acoustically, i.e. skilled ears check the acoustic quality of each frequency range.
Our loudspeakers are examined with respect to polarity (incl. polarity of single drivers), distortion, and the SPL fre-
quency responses. In this the speaker passes a computerised test desk evaluating the appliance independently and
releasing it for packaging if the measuring values are within tolerance.
To be able to observe the tolerance limits, variations e.g. in membrane weight, the magnetic field strength, or the
values of the electric components must be severely restricted, since inaccuracies of single components may add up
in the total system. To achieve maximum production quality, compliance with ELAC quality criteria and guidelines
can be regarded as the most important duty.
Loudspeaker Disposal
Please keep the cardboard box and packaging. Since the box and packaging represent the ideal container for the
appliance, you should keep them for future transports.
Material-Specific Disposal
If you want to discard the packaging, please do not put it in the household waste, since here it will be mixed up with
other residual materials. Please, do not give the material to collecting points for paper or other materials, but take it
to the dealer's. The packaging represents an important recoverable material. It consists of EPS (Styrofoam packing
parts), PE (bag, foam sheet, and packing parts) as well as cardboard, which should be returned to the material re-
sources cycle for recycling. We have an agreement with your special dealer to take back and dispose of the material
in a way that guarantees material-specific disposal. Thus, please, take the packaging back to your dealer for dis-
posal.
Recycling:
Support the environmentally-friendly disposal of electronic industry waste.
Old electronic and electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the same manner as regular
household waste!
Environmentally-friendly recycling must take place according to each country’s regulations.
