If there is still moisture
in the earmould 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 ear-
mould.
If your earmould tubing becomes slack, stiff, yel-
low or cracked, replace the tubing. 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, a Widex
drying kit may be used daily to reduce the
amount of moisture inside the hearing aid. See
the instructions enclosed with the Widex dry-
ing kit.
