7 CARE INSTRUCTIONS
7.1 General
audifon hearing aids will improve your hearing ability as well as
your quality of life. To ensure your hearing aids function perfect-
ly and so make hearing a pleasant experience for years to come,
audifon offers special care products designed to enable optimum
cleaning of your devices.
Protect your hearing aids against moisture (e.g. showers, sweat,
rain), and take your hearing aids out before using hairspray or
similar cosmetic products.
No matter what type of hearing aid you use, we also recommend
carrying out daily care on them as these devices are exposed to
moisture and dust through intended use, even when handled
with care: Each one is in direct contact with the skin. Resulting
perspiration may damage your hearing aid in the long term un-
less dried on a daily basis. To prevent any damage from mois-
ture, audifon's behind-the-ear hearing aids are coated with a
water-repellent finish known as the nanoShield.
Wearing a hearing aid or inserting the ear adapter piece in the
ear canal will always involve soiling with earwax. For this reason
we recommend regular cleaning. Do not use a damp cloth to
clean your hearing aids. Always use a soft, dry cloth.
Should your hearing aid still not function correctly despite regu-
lar care, call on your hearing care professional. Do not try under
any circumstances to repair your hearing aid yourself.
