If there is still moisture
in the earmold the next
time you want to use the
hearing aid, use a small
blower or the like to blow
it dry.
Never
use alcohol or other cleaning solu-
tions to clean your earmold.
If your earmold tubing becomes slack, stiff, yellow
or cracked, it should be replaced. For further sup-
plies of tubing consult your hearing care profes-
sional.
Caring for your hearing aid
With proper care, your hearing aid will give you
years of reliable service. Here are some things you
can do to prolong the life of your hearing aid:
Switch your hearing aid off when it is not in
use. Should you not use it for several days, take
out the battery to avoid battery leakage.
Treat your hearing aid as the valuable object it
is: with care. When your hearing aid is not in
use, keep it in its case in a cool, dry location
where it cannot be reached by children or
pets.
When not in use, do not expose your hearing
aid to extreme temperatures or high humidity.
In environments with high humidity (including
that created by heavy perspiration), a drying kit
may be used daily to reduce the amount of
moisture inside the hearing aid. See the in-
structions enclosed with the drying kit.
