Changing the Wax Filters 

on the Speaker Unit and Custom Mold

The miniRITE hearing instrument offers two types of wax filters, the ProWax and the ProWax miniFit.

ProWax

Custom Fittings

Custom Mold

Lite Tip

The wax filters should be changed as needed, to ensure efficient wax protection, and to prolong the life of the 

speaker unit. Visually inspect the filters. If they are clogged or there is no sound coming from the device, 

replace them.

1  Remove a tool from the turtle.

2  Insert its empty end into the old filter and pull it out.

3  Push a new filter into the sound outlet.

4  Discard the used tool. It cannot be reused.
