Maintenance
The FineTuner Echo is designed for durability and reliability. When handled with suf‑
cient care, it will function for a long time:
• Do not drop the device.
• Do not try to repair electronic parts of your FineTuner Echo and do not try to open
the device as this invalidates the warranty.
• Store the FineTuner Echo in a safe place when not in use.
• You should always remove the battery if you do not use the FineTuner Echo for a
longer period of time to avoid battery leakage.
• Do not touch the battery contacts. If the contacts need to be cleaned, use a cotton
swab and a small amount of cleaning alcohol. Gently wipe dry after cleaning.
• Protect the FineTuner Echo from liquids, dust and excessive temperatures.
• Do not clean the FineTuner Echo in or under water. Use a damp cloth to gently
clean the FineTuner Echo. Never use household cleaning products or alcohol.
• Do not use a microwave or any other heating devices to dry the FineTuner Echo. If
necessary, wipe it off with a dry tissue.
• Do not stick adhesive labels to the FineTuner Echo.
Other than replacing the battery, there are no serviceable features in the FineTuner
Echo.
If the device does not work properly, check chapter Troubleshooting. If you cannot
solve the problem following the recommended actions in the troubleshooting section,
please contact your healthcare provider or local MED‑EL representative for advice.
