    Cleaning your speakers
    Clean the cabinets of your Acoustimass® 3 system using a damp cloth. If necessary, use a
    mild detergent such as dish soap. Do not use any solvents, chemicals, or cleaning solutions
    containing alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives. Do not allow liquids to spill through the speaker
    grilles or enter the Acoustimass module.
    You can vacuum the speaker grilles. To avoid damaging the drivers located directly behind
    the grille cloth, use light pressure only.
