Maintenance and care

NOTICE

Do not put the hearing instrument in water.

Your hearing instrument is a highly sensitive system. 
Proper care and handling will ensure the best possible 
performance.

If soreness or skin irritation develops in the ear, disconti-

Hearing Care Professional. Minor fit adjustments and poli-
shing can often correct this condition. If soreness persists, 
discontinue wearing the hearing instrument and see your 
physician.

If excessive earwax accumulates when wearing your
hearing instrument, consult your Hearing Care Professio-
nal.
