avoiding heat and chemicals
Your hearing instrument must never be exposed to extreme heat, e.g., left inside a
parked car in the sun. It must not be dried in microwave ovens or other ovens.
The chemicals in cosmetics, hairspray, perfume, after shave lotion, suntan lotion and
insect repellent can damage your hearing instrument. You should always remove your
hearing instrument before applying such products and allow time for the product to
dry before reinserting your hearing instrument.
If you use lotion, be sure to wipe your hands dry before putting on your hearing
instrument.
