CABINET FINISH CARE

THIEL wood cabinets possess a high quality lacquer finish that is both beautiful and durable. However, any wood finish can

be damaged by excessive moisture, dryness, or direct sunlight. When cleaning your speakers, avoid using oils, waxes, or

polishes that contain silicone, such as Pledge or Johnson’s. We recommend using Endust. Non-wood laminate cabinets may

be cleaned with a glass-type cleaner and a soft cloth.

GRILLE

The SCS3 grille frame is designed to not produce diffraction so there is no sonic reason to remove it. If you do need to

remove the grille, pull the grille frame away from the top (short side) of the speaker, then from the bottom.

The grilles can be cleaned of dust by using an upholstery attachment of a vacuum cleaner. To prevent damage to the

woofer, take care not to push the cloth in toward the center of the grille, or you can remove the grille before cleaning.
