Cleaning the earmould
• First, remove the tubing and
earmould from the hearing
instrument. Keep left and right
instrument separated.
• Remove earwax with the cleaning
brush and a soft cloth. If needed,
use a mild solution of soft soap
and water or a special cleaning solution. Ask your hearing care
practitioner for detailed instructions.
• Rinse the earmould with water.
Note:
Do not use water or other liquid on the hearing instrument
itself.
• Dry the earmould with a cloth.
• Blow possible water drops from
tubing and earmould. A special
device is available for this from
your hearing care practitioner.
• Ensure that the earmould and
tubing are completely dry before
attaching them to the hearing instrument. Take care with left
and right instruments, check the figures on page 8.
Replacing the tube
Ask your hearing care practitioner to replace the tubing from the
instrument to the earmould if it turns stiff or changes colour.
