Daily maintenance
It is important to keep your hearing instrument clean and dry. On a daily basis, clean the hearing instruments
using a soft cloth or tissue. In order to avoid damage due to humidity or excessive perspiration, the use of
a drying kit is recommended.
i
the microphone tube
The microphone tip and tubing can be cleaned by gently wiping them with a soft dry cloth. This will help to
ensure that the ports stay open and allow sound to get into the microphone.
Note that the tube may wear out or become discoloured over time with usage of the hearing instrument.
Should the tubing become discoloured or should the hearing instrument fail to produce sound, contact your
hearing care professional to have the tubing replaced.
Wax filter
The wax filter is located at the recei-ver end of the hearing instrument. This filter is designed to decrease
the like-lihood that wax will get into the instrument's sound outlet and cause decreased performance or
damage. It is recommended that these are changed as needed.
to replace the wax filter:
1.
Remove the dome from the instrument.
2.
Clean the device.
3.
Use the skewer side of the wax removal tool to remove wax filter.
4.
Screw the tool onto the wax filter.
5.
