Maintenance and
cleaning
Earwax (cerumen) can accumulate in and on the sound outlet
during use. Therefore, clean the sound outlet regularly. Failure to do
so can lead to an accumulation of earwax, impairing sound quality.
Keep your hearing instrument clean and dry. Wipe the case with a
soft cloth or tissue after use to remove grease or moisture. You
should avoid exposing your instrument directly to moisture such as
rain or water from the shower. If your instrument does get wet or if
it has been exposed to high humidity or perspiration, it should be
left to dry out overnight with the battery out and the battery
compartment open.
Alternatively, you could store the instrument in a dry aid kit
available from www.hearingdirect.com
When you are not using your instrument, keep or transport it in the
box supplied. Leave the battery door open. Keep your instrument
in a dry place, not in a bathroom or other humid place.
