4. Penyelenggaraan

4.1. Pembersihan

Regularly clean the exterior of the system with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by a dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, waxes, or solvents as they may damage the finish. Keep the steel grilles free of dust and debris to ensure optimal sound dispersion.
