Custom-made ear pieces (earmolds),
ear pieces, tubes
Cerumen (ear wax) may accumulate on the earmolds or
ear pieces. This may affect sound quality.
For hearing instruments with a standard tube
(LifeTube, ThinTube):
Clean the earmolds or ear pieces daily, clean the tubes as
required.
Exchange the earmolds or ear pieces and tubes approximately
every three to six months, or sooner if you notice cracks or
other changes.
For hearing instruments with earhook:
Clean the earmolds or ear pieces daily.
Ask your Hearing Care Professional to clean the tubes or to
exchange the earmolds or ear pieces and tubes as needed.
Cleaning earmolds or ear pieces
X
Clean the earmold or ear piece upon
removal with a soft and dry tissue.
This prevents cerumen from
becoming dry and hardening.
X
Never use running water
or immerse the earmold or
ear piece in water.
