The 805 D4 and 804 D4 are very heavy and we
strongly suggest that they are unpacked in the room
in which they are to be used by two people working
together. It is also a sensible precaution to remove
jewellery to negate the risk of scratching the speakers'
surface finish.
The tables above illustrate the component parts that
are packed with the 805 D4 and 804 D4. In the unlikely
event that anything is missing please contact the
retailer from whom you purchased the speakers.

804 D4
The heavier bass/midrange grilles attach magnetically
and are packed in a separate compartment to prevent
movement in transit.
N ote: Care must be taken when fitting or removing
the magnetically attached grilles to avoid marking
the product. The grilles will mark the speaker / stand
plinth if dropped; you can mitigate against this by
covering the plinth when fitting or removing the
grilles.
Tweeter diaphragms are very delicate and easily
damaged. In the 800 Series Diamond we include
a steel grille mesh that can protect the tweeter
from many forms of damage. However, you should
still exercise care when handling and cleaning your
loudspeakers.
Environmental Information
This product complies with international directives,
including but not limited to:
i. the Restriction of Hazardous Substances
(RoHS) in electrical and electronic equipment,
ii. the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and
restriction of CHemicals (REACH)
iii. the disposal of Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment (WEEE).
Consult your local waste disposal authority for
guidance on how properly to recycle or dispose
of this product.
The tweeter assembly on this 800 Series Diamond
loudspeaker is a decoupled component that is
mechanically isolated from the main part of the cabinet.
As such, it may appear to be loose when the product is
first removed from its packaging. This is not a fault: it is
an inherent feature of the design and ensures optimum
performance from your speaker.
If the tweeter assembly has moved slightly during
transit and requires adjustment, the assembly can be
moved very slightly forwards and backwards to ensure
that the rear of the tweeter body is aligned with the
rear of the speaker cabinet. The tweeter assembly
can also be rotated very slightly to ensure that the
Bowers & Wilkins logo is vertically orientated. Do not
force the tweeter into any position beyond the soft
end-stops when making these adjustments.
Note: Care must be taken to not damage the
decoupling assembly when making these
adjustments - please seek assistance from your
dealer if you are in any doubt about adjusting the
tweeter assembly.
