Storage tips
When you’re not wearing your hearing
aids, protect them from damage using
these storage tips:
• Store them inside your storage
case or charger (plugged in
or powered, so they’re ready
to use again).
• Choose a cool, dry location,
away from heat and moisture.
Avoid direct sunlight if you can.
• Ensure you can easily find your
hearing aids – and your kids and
pets cannot. A nightstand or
dresser spot is ideal.
See your hearing care professional for
more storage tips.
Cleaning microphone cover
The custom microphone cover on your
hearing aids protects the microphone
from earwax and debris. Ask your
hearing care professional for instructions
on cleaning and maintaining this.

Replacing wax guards
The wax guards prevent earwax from
building up in your hearing aids.
It’s best to replace these if you notice
built-up debris or poor sound from
your hearing aids.
To replace your wax guards:
1. Insert the empty end of the
application stick straight into the
used wax guard of your hearing aid.
Push firmly.
2. Pull the application stick straight
out to remove the used wax guard.
Do not twist.
