Caring for Your Tweak
The following instructions will assist in extending
the life of your Tweak amplifier.
Cleaning the Exterior
You should inspect and clean your Tweak every day.
To clean, gently wipe the surface with a soft, dry
cloth or a moist non-alcohol disinfecting wipe. Do
not allow water or liquid to enter any openings.
The most common causes of amplifier problems are
moisture and wax. The daily use of a Dry & Store®
appliance is recommended to reduce moisture
and wax buildup. Dry & Store products
may be purchased at www.dryandstore.com.
Cleaning the Tip and Tube
Remove the tube from the
case by
twisting the tube
connector at least 45° then
pulling it off
. Use the same
method for an earhook.
Wipe the exterior of the tube
and tip. Use the cleaning line
provided to clean the tube and
tip, by pushing the cleaning
line through the tube. A brush
is also included for cleaning
debris from the dome tip.
(Insert the cleaning line at the connector end where
the tube attaches to the amplifier case and push out
through the tip.)
Re-attach the tube by aligning the tube connector
end with the end of the amplifier case, then
push
the connector straight onto the sound post until
it snaps into place
. There is no need to rotate the
tube when re-attaching.
Do not rinse or submerge these parts in water.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use cleaning line while tube is attached to device.
Tube must be detached from the instrument before cleaning.
There is a risk of damage if a water
drop becomes trapped in the tube.
If this should occur, it will prevent
sound from coming through the
tube and may be harmful to Tweak’s
electronics.
Changing the Tube and Tip
The tube and tip should be changed periodically,
typically 2 or 3 times per year. When the tube or tip
become soft, discolored, kinked, or damaged, obtain
replacements by calling 1-888-815-3240 or visiting
