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,
earmolds or domes.
Do not use sharp tools to dislodge ear wax.
Sticking household items into your hearing aids
or earmolds can seriously damage them.
Earmolds
Always ensure earmolds are
clean and free of earwax.
Do not use alcohol to clean
your earmolds.
If the earmolds become plugged, clear the
opening with a wax loop or pipe cleaner.
If your physician prescribes eardrops, clean
any moisture that may get into the earmolds or
tubing to prevent plugging.
If the earmolds require further cleaning:
1. Disconnect the plastic tube from the hook of
the hearing aids.
2. Wash only the earmolds in warm water with a
mild soap.
3. Rinse them with cool water and dry overnight.
4. Make sure the earmold tubes are dry before
reconnecting them to each hook on your
hearing aids. Use of a hearing aid blower
can assist with removing moisture/debris
from tube. See your hearing healthcare
professional for more information.
