The receiver tube
The receiver tube contains the wiring to the receiver which delivers the sound to the ear canal. It is important
that the receiver tube and the receiver dome/RIE mold fits correctly in your ear. If the receiver tube or the re-
ceiver dome/RIE mold irritates your ear in any way and prevents you from wearing your hear ing instrument,
please contact your hearing care pro fessional. You should never attempt to modify the shape of the receiver
tube yourself. The receiver tube and the receiver dome/RIE mold should be cleaned regularly. Please see
instructions in the next section.

Cleaning the receiver tubes and domes
The receiver tube and the receiver dome should be cleaned regularly. Use a damp cloth to clean the re-
ceiver tube and receiver dome on the outside. Do not use water when you are cleaning the receiver tubes
or the receiver domes. This process is also used to clean the UP receiver mold. Please see instruction on
page 29 for how to change the wax guard filter.

Cleaning RIE or molds (does not apply for UP)
1. Separate the mold from the receiver tube.
2. Clean the RIE mold using a mild soap, and rinse with lukewarm water.
3. After cleaning, dry RIE molds thoroughly and remove any residual
water and debris utilizing an air bulb.
