Drying
You can use conventional products to dry your

instructions on when to dry your hearing aids.
Storage
●
Short-term storage (up to several days): Turn off your
hearing aids via the rocker switch or place them in
the powered charger.
The charger must be connected to the power supply.
If the charger is not connected to power supply
and you place your hearing aids in the charger, the
hearing aids are not turned off.
Note that when you turn off the hearing aids via a
remote control or smartphone app, the hearing
aids are not turned off completely. They are in
standby-mode and still draw some power.
●
Long-term storage (weeks, months, ...): First, fully
charge your hearing aids. Turn them off via the
rocker switch before storing them. We recommend
using drying products while storing the hearing aids.
At 6 month intervals you will have to charge
the hearing aids to avoid an unrecoverable
deep-discharge of the power cell. Deep-discharged
power cells cannot be charged anymore and they
have to be replaced. We recommend recharging
more frequently than 6 month intervals.
Observe the storage conditions in section
"Operating, transport and storage conditions".
