Please be aware that the use of any type of earmould
may involve a slightly increased risk of infection in
the ear canal. An infection can arise as a result of in-
adequate ventilation of the ear or scratches in the ear
canal caused by the earmould. Therefore, we recom-
mend that you take off your earmould at night to al-
low the ear canal to be ventilated. Make sure that
you clean and inspect your earmould as required. If
an infection occurs it is a good idea to clean your ear-
mould with a disinfecting tissue or the like. Do not
under any circumstances use alcohol, chlorine or sim-
ilar substances to clean your earmould.
When not in use
When your hearing aid is not in use, it should be
placed in the small case, which you can easily carry
in a pocket or purse.
Never expose the hearing aid to excessive heat, such
as leaving it on a window sill, near a radiator or near
a car window.
