NOTICE
1. Never clean the probe housing by immersion in a solution.
Disassembled OAE probe. Note probe tips after year 2010 are transparent instead of black. As well are ear
tips in, e.g. green, blue, red and yellow colors.
Procedure:
1. Never clean the probe tip while the tip is still fitted to the probe housing.
2. Unscrew the probe cap of the probe by turning in the counter clockwise direction.
3. Remove the probe tip from the probe housing.
4. Take the cleaning tool apart to access the thin brush and thin rigid plastic cord.
5. Use the plastic cord or brush to remove any debris from the probe tip. Always insert the cleaning tool
from the rear to avoid accumulation of debris inside the small round vents. Only insert the cleaning
tool into the open channel vent (the other vents have small red acoustic filters inside).
6. Alternatively, use a Thornton Bridge & Implant Interdental Clearer to remove debris. Thread the stiff
end of the cleaning thread into the rear end the open probe tip tube and pull all the through.
7. Place the probe tip back onto the probe. Make sure that the holes fit into the corresponding cavities.
8. Screw the probe cap back onto the probe. Finger force will tighten the screw sufficiently. Never use
tools to affix the probe cap!
