Slim tubes and domes
You should have the slim
tubes and domes replaced
by your hearing healthcare
professional approximately
every three to six months
or when they become stiff,
brittle, or discolored.
Clean the domes daily with a damp cloth.
You should also clean the slim tubes periodically,
with the cleaning pin provided, when you begin
to notice debris in and around the tubes.
1. Hold the slim tube in one hand and the
hearing aid in the other hand.
2. Gently turn the hearing aid until it detaches
from the slim tube.
3. Use a damp cloth to clean the outside of the
slim tube and dome.
4. Remove the dome from the slim tube by
pulling gently, before cleaning the slim tube.
5. Using the black cleaning
pin provided in the kit,
gently insert the cleaning
pin where the slim tube
attaches to the hearing
aid and push the pin all
the way through the tube.
Note: The slim tubes and domes should never
be rinsed or submerged in water as water drops
may become lodged in the tube, block sound
or damage the electrical components of the
hearing aid.
6. Once the slim tube has been cleaned,
reattach it by gently turning the hearing aid
onto the slim tube.
7. Reattach the dome to the slim tube by gently
pushing it back onto the threading at the end
of the tube.
