Cleaning and Care
With the proper care, your RCA Symphonix
earpiece and charger should provide years of use.
It is important to keep the following cautions in
mind.
:: DO NOT get water on or in the earpiece.
:: DO NOT wear the earpiece while swimming,
showering, in heavy rain, or in a moist
atmosphere (like a sauna).
:: DO NOT use solvents or liquids on the
earpiece.
:: DO NOT use solvents on the tube or dome.
:: DO NOT sleep with the earpiece on.
:: DO NOT leave the earpiece or charger in or
near direct sunlight or excessive heat.
:: Remove the RCA Symphonix earpiece when
applying cosmetics, perfume, aftershave,
hairspray, lotion, or any other product that
might get into the earpiece.
:: Remove the RCA Symphonix earpiece during
strenuous physical activities, like working out.
:: Keep the RCA Symphonix earpiece and
charger clean and dry.
If you find yourself in a situation where the RCA
Symphonix might get wet—caught in the rain
without an umbrella, for example—just take off the
earpiece and put it in your pocket or purse.
Suggested maintenance
To get the most from your RCA Symphonix
earpiece, you should keep a routine of cleaning its
parts. We recommend the following schedule:
Daily
Clean the earpiece
Weekly

sound inlet
Every 3-4 months Replace the dome
Make it easy!
RCA Symphonix has a cleaning kit with the
exact tools you need to keep your earpiece,
tube, and dome clean and ready to use, as well
as service plans for keeping your earpiece and
charger in top working order. See the brochures
in this package or visit RCASymphonix.com for
more information.
Cleaning the earpiece
Use a soft cloth to wipe the earpiece after use to
remove any particles or moisture. Be careful not
to get water on or in the earpiece.
Cleaning the tube and dome
Remove the tube from the earpiece. Find the part
of the tube that attaches to the earpiece. Gently
rotate this section of the tube so that the sound
inlet is exposed (as shown here).

Sound inlet
Once you've removed the tube from the earpiece,
use a soft, moist cloth or mild soap and water to
clean the tube and dome. You can also use the
RCA Symphonix accessory cleaning kit, available
through RCASymphonix.com or through the
accessories brochure in this package.
IMPORTANT: Make sure all components are completely
dry before you put them back on the earpiece.
If there's wax in the tube: Use a section of
monofilament fishing line (medium to heavy-
gauge) to clean inside the tube. You can
also use the tube-cleaning rod from the RCA
Symphonix cleaning kit, available from the
accessories brochure in this package or on
RCASymphonix.com.
Cleaning the microphone and sound inlet
The microphone and sound
inlet on your earpiece are
under the tube connector.
To clean these parts, you
must first remove the tube
from the earpiece (see
Cleaning the tube and dome
on the previous page). Once
you've removed the tube
from the earpiece, you can
use a small brush to gently
remove any particles that
may be on the earpiece's
microphone or sound inlet
(shown here). DO NOT use
any liquids or solvents
on the earpiece.
Replacing the dome
To remove the dome, hold
the end of the tube between
your thumb and forefinger
and pull the dome off with
your other hand.
If you need to order a
replacement dome, use
the accessory brochure
included in this package or visit RCASymphonix.
com. To mount the new dome to the earpiece tube,
push the opening on the back of the dome gently
onto the end of the tube. Push the dome onto the
end of the tube as far as it will go. Make sure the
dome is securely fastened.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT
pull the tube off at an
angle. Doing so could
harm the tube or the
components in your
earpiece and void your
warranty.
