Daily care of your hearing
instruments
When handling a hearing instrument, keep it over a
soft surface to avoid damage if you drop it.
Before retiring for the night:
• Make sure that there is no ear wax in any of the
earmould openings which might reduce the hearing
instruments' efficiency.
• Open the battery compartments to allow air to
circulate.
Cleaning your earmoulds
The earmoulds should be washed
regularly:
• Disconnect the earmould and tub-
ing from the hearing instrument.
• Wash the earmould in lukewarm water
using a mild soap. Do not use strong
detergents.
The hearing instruments themselves must
never be washed!

• Rinse with water.
• Dry the earmould.
• Any water drops inside the
earmould or tubing should be
blown out. A special device for this
purpose (an earmould blower) is
available from your hearing care professional.
• Make sure the earmould and tubing are completely
dry before they are reconnected to the hearing
instruments as shown in the drawing.

Replacing the tubing
The tubing in the earmould should
be replaced when it becomes yel-
low or stiff. Consult your hearing
care professional in relation to
this.
