Caring for your hearing instrument
Your ear canal produces ear wax (cerumen) which
may clog up the earpiece. Therefore your hearing
instrument contains a filter to prevent wax accumula-
tion. Consult your Hearing Care Professional for
instructions about the specific wax protection
system in your hearing instrument and how it can be
replaced.
When handling a hearing instrument, keep it over a
soft surface to avoid damage if you drop it.
Before retiring at night:
Make sure that there is no ear wax in any of the •
earpiece openings since it may reduce the hearing
instrument’s efficiency.
Open the battery door completely to allow air to •
circulate.
Cleaning the instrument
A range of dedicated cleaning tools is prepared for the
special purpose of cleaning the instrument. These
should be used to ensure the best care and perform-
ance of your hearing instruments.
Use the cloth to wipe clean the surface of the
instruments.
Replace the brush when necessary. Just pull it out of
the tool and insert a new fresh brush. Press the new
one firmly into the handle.
