batteries removed in a drying system to avoid the
adverse effects of moisture.

hearing instruments or cause personal injury.

tissue.

Maintenance and care
Ear pieces
Cleaning
Cerumen (ear wax) may accumulate on the ear pieces.
This may affect sound quality. Clean the ear pieces daily.
For all types of ear pieces:

Clean the
ear piece right
after removal
with a soft and
dry tissue.

that cerumen
becomes dry
and hard.
