Important

Make sure that the power cables are removed from the back of your Sound Bar or Sub-Woofer before cleaning.

Do not use volatile solvent (such as toluene, rosin and alcohol) to clean your Sound Bar or Sub- Woofer. Such chemicals may damage your Sound Bar or Sub-Woofer housing.

Cleaning the Housing and Remote Control
