Battery Safety
• Dispose of used batteries properly.
• Keep batteries out of reach of children or persons with diminished mental capacity.
• Keep batteries away from pets.
• Do not place batteries in your mouth. If a battery has been swallowed, consult a
physician immediately.
To prevent batteries from leaking or exploding:
• Do not expose batteries to temperature extremes.
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
• Do not attempt to recharge batteries which are not specifically designated re-
chargeable, or reverse a battery’s polarity.
Maintenance and cleaning
Earwax (cerumen) can accumulate in and on the earmould during use. Therefore, clean
your earmould regularly. Failure to do so can lead to an accumulation of earwax, impairing
sound quality.
Keep your hearing instrument clean and dry. Wipe the case with a soft cloth or tissue
after use to remove grease or moisture. You should avoid exposing your instrument
directly to moisture such as rain or water from the shower. If your instrument does
get wet or if it has been exposed to high humidity or perspiration, it should be left to
dry out overnight with the battery out and the battery compartment open. It is also a
good idea to put them in a sealed container together with a drying agent (dessicator)
overnight. Consult your hearing care professional as to which drying agent to use.
Storing your instrument
When you are not using your instrument, keep or transport it in the box supplied.
Leave the battery door open. Keep your instrument in a dry place, not in a bathroom or
other humid place. Alternatively, you could store the instrument in a dessicator available
from your hearing care practitioner.
