Maintenance
Wind and Weather Protector
Important:
The three Wind and Weather Protectors are
exclusive to Phonak hearing systems, designed to
protect the high-tech microphones and the battery air
inlet from dust, humidity or water.
The life span of the Wind and Weather Protector
should be up to several months, depending on the
environment (humidity, dust, perspiration, etc.). The
Wind and Weather Protectors should not be cleaned
but replaced regularly.
Your hearing systems should never be used without
the Wind and Weather Protectors. If they are not
mounted properly, the hearing system is not water
resistant (see page 50).
The following care and maintenance tips will help
extend the life span and ensure the efficiency of your
protectors:
Never wipe or clean the Wind and Weather
Protector – it may lose its special acoustic and
protection properties.
The Wind and Weather Protector is made of
three identical parts. Always replace all three
protectors together.
Hair spray, make-up, etc. may damage or clog
the Wind and Weather Protector. Remove your
hearing system before applying cosmetics.
Avoid touching the Wind and Weather Protector
when you place an instrument on your ear or
press the program switch.
