The hearing aid
Never clean your hearing aid with
water or cleaning solutions. In-
stead, clean your hearing aid with
the soft cloth (no. 2) after use.
The microphone openings
Use the wax removing tool (no.1)
to clean the microphone open-
ings. Pass the wax removing tool
straight through the openings. If
you feel resistance, withdraw the
tool and try again. Use only the
recommended wax removing
tool.
When the hearing aid is not in use, it is a good idea to
leave the battery drawer open, so as to ventilate the
hearing aid and allow it to dry.
The earmold
Make sure that the earmold is
clean and free of earwax and
moisture. If it is plugged, clear
the openings with the wax re-
moving tool.
Disconnect the earmold and
tubing from the hearing aid at
least once a week and wash
thoroughly in lukewarm water.
Allow the earmold and tubing
to dry overnight. Never use al-
cohol or other cleaning solu-
tions to clean your earmold.
