Custom shells and domes
Clean the domes and shells on the
outside daily with a damp cloth.
Avoid getting any water in and
around the speaker units
(microphone shields) and custom shells.
Note: The tubes, speakers, domes or custom
shells should never be rinsed or submerged in
water as water drops may block sound or
damage the electrical components of the
hearing aids.
Domes should be replaced by your hearing
healthcare professional every 3-6 months.
If your shells require further cleaning, the
speaker waxguard may be plugged and
require replacing. See your hearing
healthcare professional.
Regular use of a dehumidifier, such as a Dri-
Aid kit, can help prevent corrosion and
prolong the life of your hearing aids.
Do not drop your hearing aids or knock them
against hard surfaces.
Cleaning your hearing aids
Ear wax is natural and common. Ensuring
your hearing aids are free of ear wax is an
important step in your daily cleaning and
maintenance routine.
Never use alcohol to clean your hearing aids,
custom molds or domes.
Do not use sharp tools to dislodge ear wax.
Sticking household items into your hearing
aids or custom molds can seriously damage
them.
