MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING 

 

The  THA2  usually  requires  no  maintenance.  Please  contact  your  Goldmund  approved 
dealer if any maintenance should be required. 
 
Always turn the power OFF before cleaning your THA2. To clean the external metal of the 
amplifier,  always  use  a  clean,  soft,  damp  cloth.  Dampen  it  with  water  or  a  mild  detergent 
solution. Avoid abrasive or harsh cleansers (e.g. products containing sodium carbonate). 
The  identification  plate  is  plated  with  precious  metal.  Simply  clean  it  with  a  soft  cloth, 
without any chemical solution.
