Avoiding heat, humidity and chemicals
Your hearing instruments must never be exposed to
extreme heat e.g. left inside a parked car in the sun.
They must never be exposed to a lot of moisture e.g.
steam baths, showers or heavy rain. Nor must they be
dried in microwave ovens or other ovens.
Wipe the batteries carefully if moisture is present as it
may affect their performance. Using an anti-humidity
kit can help to avoid these problems and may even
extend the life of your hearing instruments. Consult
your Hearing Care Professional for further advice.
The chemicals in cosmetics, hairspray, perfume, after-
shave-lotion, suntan lotion and insect repellant can
damage your hearing instruments. You should always
remove your hearing instruments before applying
such products and allow time for the product to dry
before reinserting your hearing instruments. If you
use lotion, be sure to wipe your hands dry before
putting your hearing instruments on.
Using your hearing instruments
It takes time to adjust to a new hearing instrument.
How long this adjustment takes differs from person to
person. It will depend on a number of factors, such as
whether you have had hearing instruments before and
the degree of your hearing loss.
Seven easy steps to better hearing
1. In the quiet of your home
Try to accustom yourself to all the new sounds. Listen
to the many background sounds and try to identify
each sound. Bear in mind that some sounds will
seem different from what you are used to. You may
have to learn to identify them again. Note that in
time you will get accustomed to the sounds in your
environment – if not please contact your Hearing
Care Professional.
If using the hearing instruments makes you tired,
take them off for a little while and have a rest.
Gradually, you will begin to be able to listen for longer
periods of time. Soon, you will be able to wear your
hearing instruments comfortably all day long.
