Please clean the housing using a soft, dry cloth for 
optimum results. If they are very dirty, use a soft 
cloth soaked in a mild universal cleaning solu-
tion and firmly wrung out. 
Take  great  care  when  wiping  off  the  speaker 
diaphragms,  as  these  are  highly  sensitive.  The 
fabric  framework  can  be  cleaned  using  a  vacuum 
cleaner and may also be wiped using a well-wrung-
out lint-free cloth and a mild universal cleaning solu-
tion.

Maintenance

The floor-standing DALI Piano speakers come with 4 cones to be mounted 
under the base. It is vital that these cones be positioned correctly to ensure 
the stability of the speakers. Please use the accompanying template, which 
can be found at one end of the packaging, for mounting the 4 self-
adhesive cones.

Unpacking

Congratulations on the purchase of your new DALI Piano speakers. This

Manual

Piano Forte wall-mounted subwoofer

DALI strongly recommends that wall-mounting of Piano Forte be carried 
out by trained staff, who can ensure that the fitting is securely fastened 
to the wall. For wall-mounting, the fitting that accompanies the speakers 
must be used.

This manual also contains information on DALI Piano Forte.
