Cleaning of receiver and microphone of hearing aids
We recommend to remove filter systems, earhooks before starting
cleaning and drying and to open the battery flap . Use the red hose for
sucking. Select the appropriate attachments from among the suction
needles provided , preferably corresponding with the diameter oft he
microphone, resp. receiver opening and insert this attachent into the
handpiece oft he red vacuum hose. You will find the suction needles
(attachments) in the storing box.
Switch on the device – press the right orange button sucking – function
sucking starts.
The green LED (vacuum) lights up and vacuum of -0,8 bar is produced.
Slowly move the cleaning attachment 5 -6 times to and fro and suck out
openings. In case of extreme soiling it might be helpful to sprinkle the
reciever with ecco cleaning liquid (1 bottle included in the delivery and
can be reordered) Leave it to take effect for some time and clean the
reciver again with the red vacuum hose.
If you press the right orange button STOP for longer than 2 seconds the
device is switched off in case the device is not switched off by means of
the button, it will be switched off automatically after 15 minutes. The
green LED turns off.
Attention:
If the red LED lights up permanently and the green LED is off, no optimal
vacuum will be created. This may have different causes. Ear wax filter is
full of extracted ear wax , ear wax is in the red hose or in the suction
needle. The parts have to be cleaned.
