Maintenance and care
NOTICE
Do not put the hearing instrument in water.
Your hearing instrument is a highly sensitive system.
Proper care and handling will ensure the best possible
performance.
Clean instrument and earmold regularly to prevent
damage to the hearing instrument and to avoid health
problems.
Clean your hearing instrument with a soft, dry tissue,
as necessary.
Place your hearing instrument in a "dry aid kit" with a
special moisture-attracting capsule overnight.
Occasionally bring your hearing instrument to your
Hearing Care Professional to change the wax guard,
clean the venting channel, microphone and sound
outlets.
Ask your Hearing Care Professional for special care sets
and further information on how to keep your hearing
instrument in good condition.
If soreness or skin irritation develops in the ear, ask your
Hearing Care Professional for help. Minor fit adjustments
and polishing can often correct this condition.
