Caring for your Conversa.NT

Hearing

Aids

• Always remove your hearing aids when using hair

care products. The hearing aids can become clogged

and cease to function properly.

• Protect your hearing aids from excessive heat (hair

dryer, vehicle glove box or dashboard) and moisture

(bath or shower). Do not immerse the hearing aids in

water.

• If your hearing aids do become wet, do not attempt to

dry them in an oven or microwave. Do not adjust any

controls. Open the battery doors immediately and

allow your hearing aids to dry naturally for 24 hours.

• Regular use of a dehumidifier, such as a Dri-Aid kit,

can help prevent corrosion and prolong the life of

your hearing aids. See your hearing healthcare

professional for more information.

• Do not drop your hearing aids or knock them against

hard surfaces.
