Maintenance and care

Your hearing instrument may be equipped with a sieve, re-
cess or guard on the sound outlet to prevent earwax from 
entering the hearing instrument.

Clean your hearing instrument daily with a soft and dry 
tissue to prevent damage to the hearing instrument and 
to avoid health problems.
Place your hearing instrument in a "dry aid kit" with a 
special moisture-attracting capsule overnight.
Occasionally bring your hearing instrument to your Hea-
ring Care Professional to change the wax guard, 
clean the venting channel, microphone and sound out-
lets, and for general system maintenance.
Ask your Hearing Care Professional for special care sets 
and further information on how to keep your hearing 
instrument in good condition.
