Warranty and repairs 

The manufacturer provides a warranty on hearing instruments in the event of defects in workmanship 
or materials, as described in applicable warranty documentation. In its service policy, the manufacturer 
pledges to secure functionality at least equivalent to the original hearing instrument. As a signatory to 
the United Nations Global Compact initiative, the manufacturer is committed to doing this in line with 
environment friendly best practices. Hearing instruments therefore, at the manufacturer’s discretion, may 
be replaced by new products or products manufactured from new or serviceable used parts, or repaired 
using new or refurbished replacement parts.  

For hearing instruments that require service, please contact your hearing healthcare professional at your 
local Costco Hearing Aid Centre for assistance. Hearing instruments that malfunction must be repaired by 
a qualified technician. Do not attempt to open the case of hearing instruments, as this will invalidate the 
warranty. 

Temperature test, transport and storage information

Kirkland Signature Hearing Instruments are subjected to various tests in temperature and damp heating 
cycling between -25 C and +70C according to internal and industry standards. During transport or storage, 
the temperature should not exceed the limit values of -20C to 60C and relative humidity of 90% RH, non 
condensing (for limited time). The air pressure between 500 and 1100 hPa is appropriate.
