Caring for your hearing aids

Open the battery door when not in use.
•
Always remove your hearing aids when
•
using hair care products. The hearing aids
can become clogged and cease to function
properly.
Do not wear your hearing aids in the bath or
•
shower or immerse them in water.
If your hearing aids do become wet, do not
•
attempt to dry them in an oven or microwave.
Do not adjust any controls. Open the battery
doors immediately, and allow your hearing
aids to dry naturally for 24 hours.
Protect your hearing aids from excessive heat
•
(hair dryer, vehicle glove box or dashboard).
Regular use of a dehumidifier, such as a
•
Dri-Aid kit, can help prevent corrosion and
prolong the life of your hearing aids.
Do not drop your hearing aids or knock them
•
against hard surfaces.

Cleaning your hearing aids

Ear wax is natural and common. Ensuring your
hearing aids are free of ear wax is an important
step in your daily cleaning and maintenance
routine.
Using the brush that was provided with your
hearing aids, clean ear wax from your hearing
aids everyday.
Never use alcohol to clean your hearing aids.
Do not use sharp tools to dislodge ear wax.
Sticking household items into your hearing
aids can seriously damage them.
Talk to your hearing healthcare professional
about regular appointments to have the wax
removed from your hearing aids.
