CAUTION
· Desiccants are not edible. Keep them away
from children and pets.
· Do not place the battery directly in a hearing
instrument dryer. Once activated, the battery
will be consumed quickly as its chemicals tend
to dry out. This will significantly shorten the
battery service lifetime.
· The hearing instrument dryer removes accumulation
of moisture in the hearing instrument. Moisture can
damage the internal, electronic components. For
optimum hearing instrument care, it is recommended
to use a hearing instrument dryer before retiring for
the night so it will take away moisture overnight.
· Before using the hearing instrument dryer, wipe off
any dirt, dust, oil or sweat that is left on the hearing
instrument and battery with a clean soft cloth.
· A tiny packet of silica gel is included in the hearing
instrument dryer. Make sure that the lid is on tight.
If the lid is loose or off the case, the silica gel will
absorb moisture from the outside air.
· Blue silica will slowly change its color as it absorbs
moisture. When it reaches its saturation point and
turns pink, replace it with a new one. Silica gel
packets are available at your dispenser.
