Care and maintenance
Proper handling
1. Never immerse hearing instruments in water or other liquids, as liquids may cause perma-
nent damage to the hearing instruments.
2. Avoid rough handling of hearing instruments or dropping them on hard surfaces or floors.
3. Do not leave hearing instruments in or near direct heat or sunlight, as excessive heat can
cause damage or deform the casing.
4. Hair spray, make-up, etc. may damage hearing instruments, and they should be removed
prior to the application of cosmetics.

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. Remove any wax or debris from hearing instruments
using a brush and/or a wire loop. In order to avoid damage due to humidity or excessive perspi-
ration, the use of a drying kit is recommended. Some drying kits are electric, and in addition to
thoroughly drying out hearing instruments, they may help sanitize.
