One of the factors that sets the Model C Music System apart from any other audio system in the world 
is that its high gloss lacquer finish is exactly the same as that used on the finest Steinway pianos. 

To keep your Model C Music System looking superb it has to be treated with care. DO NOT use 
ordinary furniture polish or cleaning agents as these usually contain wax or silicone that may cause 
damage to the system’s surface. 

To keep that famous Steinway high gloss lacquer and 24-carat gold looking great we strongly recommend that 
you use only the included micro fibre polishing cloth, dry or slightly dampened with de-mineralised water.

In case the system is left unattended for a longer period of time, disconnect it from the mains power and 
ancillary sources. To protect against dust use the included fabric covers for the head unit and the speakers.
