This means that you can use your TV remote control, or any other remote control to adjust the volume and activate any input on the KUBIK FREE. To achieve this you must first enable the KUBIK FREE to accept the IR signals from the remote you wish to use. Follow the simple steps below to activate IR learning for your remote control. Place yourself in close proximity to the front of the KUBIK FREE. Have both your primary remote control and the KUBIK FREE remote control ready at hand, and the KUBIK FREE turned on. NOTE: The KUBIK FREE will automatically exit IR learning mode if no user activity is detected for 30 seconds. NOTE: KUBIK FREE’s IR learning only works with IR (Infrared) remote controls. Bluetooth, Radio frequency or WiFi based remote controls will not work. Even though IR is a standard, it is sometimes used differently by manufacturers. For this reason, DALI cannot guarantee that the KUBIK FREE IR learning will work with all IR remote controls on the market. AppENDIx15 AppENDIx Action Status

You will experience a gradual increase in sound quality during the first period of use. The break- in period will vary depending on use and playback volume (approximately 50 hours at medium volume is recommended). Unlike other mechanical systems, the life-span of a loudspeaker is increased by normal, regular playback of music. OvErLOAD If the KUBIK FREE is overloaded it will automatically turn off to protect itself and the power LED will start flashing. Turn on KUBIK FREE manually after approximately 15-20 min. CLEANINg Clean the cabinets with a soft, dry cloth. If the cabinets are dirty, wipe with a soft cloth dipped in all-purpose cleaner and then well wrung out. Be very careful when wiping the speaker cones, as they are very fragile. Front grilles can be cleaned with a clothes brush and wiped with a wellwrung, lint-free cloth and mild all- purpose cleaner.
