Daily Maintenance

Keep your hearing instrument clean and dry. Wipe the case
with a soft cloth or tissue after use to remove grease or
moisture.
If the instrument has been exposed to high humidity or
perspiration, enclose it in a ReSound ReStore drying unit or
a sealed container together with a drying agent (desiccant)
overnight. Consult your hearing healthcare professional
concerning which drying options are available for your use.
To avoid the need for unwarranted repairs:
• Never immerse the instrument in water or other liquids
since this may cause permanent damage to the circuitry.
• Protect your hearing instrument from rough handling, and
avoid dropping it on hard surfaces or floors.
• Do not leave the instrument in or near direct heat or sun-
light since excessive heat can damage the instrument or
deform the casing.

Cleaning the Microphone Sound Inlet

For proper function of the microphone, it is important to clean
the sound inlet to remove dust or other sound disturbing
debris. The soft brush, provided with your hearing instrument,
can be used for this purpose. Your hearing healthcare profes-
sional can instruct you on how to properly use this tool.

Changing the Sound Outlet Filter/

Cleaning the Sound Outlet

Your ReSound Plus5 hearing instrument may be equipped
with a sound outlet filter (consult your hearing healthcare
professional). This filter is located at the end of the sound
outlet and prevents debris from getting into the hearing
instrument. If the hearing instrument seems to have lost
power and changing the battery does not help, the filter
may be blocked, and needs to be changed. Your hearing
healthcare professional can instruct you on how to change
the filter.
If your hearing instrument does not have a filter, earwax
and/or other debris may collect in the sound channel. The
cleaning loop, provided with your hearing instrument, can
easily be used to remove this material. Your hearing health-
care professional can instruct you on how to properly use
this tool. When using this tool, be careful not to damage or
pull the tubing placed at the opening of the sound outlet. If
this is pulled out, the hearing instrument may need to be
returned for repair.
