Maintenance

Wind and Weather Protector

Important:

The Wind and Weather Protector is an 

exclusive Phonak system designed to protect the Savia
Art high-tech microphones from dust and humidity – as
a result they last much longer, reducing the service
costs of your hearing systems. The life span of the Wind
and Weather Protector should be up to several months, 
depending on the environment (wet, dusty, perspiration
etc.). The Wind and Weather Protector should not 
be cleaned but replaced regularly. Your hearing systems
should never be used without the Wind and Weather
Protector.
