Cleaning the unit

• Unplug the power cord from the power outlet when cleaning this unit.

• Clean this unit using a soft cloth. For tough dirt, apply some neutral detergent diluted in 5 to 6 parts water to a soft cloth, wring out thoroughly, wipe off the dirt, and then wipe again with a soft, dry cloth.

• Alcohol, thinner, benzene, insecticides, etc., could cause the print or paint to peel off. Also, leaving rubber or vinyl products in contact with this unit for long periods of time could mar the cabinet.

• When using chemical-impregnated wipes, etc., read the cautions included with the wipes carefully.

Caring for the authentic leather parts of the XW-LF3

• Natural leather is prone to water damage, including loss or change of color. Friction or getting wet may cause the color to transfer to your clothing or other items. Dyes from clothes etc. may also transfer to the leather. When using the unit, do your best to keep it away from sweat, moisture and water.

• If the leather does get wet, absorb the water by pressing and wiping with a dry towel etc., then allow it to dry in a shady and aerated place. Using a source of extreme heat, such as a hairdryer, to dry it may lead to hardening of the leather and changes in its properties or shape; therefore such measures should never be used.

• Any dirt can be removed by gently wiping with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use any of the creams or wax etc. available on the market.

• Coming into contact with alcohol, thinner, benzene, insecticide etc. will cause the color of the leather to change, so do not allow this to happen.

• Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight. Doing so may lead to the leather changing shape, patches of uneven color, or becoming cracked.

• The leather may retain a distinctive odor for a while after purchase.
