Cleaning your hearing aids

Use a soft cloth to clean your hearing aids at 

the end of each day. Regular cleaning of the 

microphone ports with the supplied cleaning 

brush will ensure that your hearing aids will 

maintain their sound quality. Your hearing care 

professional can demonstrate this for you. 
Place the hearing aids in the case overnight 

with the battery doors open to allow moisture 

to evaporate.

   Ear wax is natural and common. Ensuring your 

hearing aids are free of ear wax is an important 

step in your daily cleaning and maintenance 

routine.

 

 Never use alcohol to clean your hearing aids, 

earmolds or domes.

 

 Do not use sharp tools to dislodge ear wax. 

Sticking household items into your hearing aids 

or custom molds can seriously damage them.

Cleaning your custom molds and domes

Clean the domes and molds on the 

outside daily with a damp cloth.  

Avoid getting any water in and around 

the speaker units and custom molds.

 

 The wires, speakers, domes or custom molds 

should never be rinsed or submerged in water 

as water drops may block sound or damage the 

electrical components of the hearing aids.

Domes should be replaced every 3-6 months or 

when they become stiff, brittle, or discolored.
If your molds require further cleaning, the 

speaker waxguard may be plugged and require 

replacing. See your hearing care professional.
