them with cool water and allow them to dry overnight.
Make sure the earmold tubes are dry before reconnecting

Cleaning the Slim Tubes and Domes
If your hearing instruments have slim tubes (see "Using
the Element BTE Guide"), you need to ensure that the
tubes and domes are free of ear wax and moisture. You
should have the slim tubes and domes replaced by your
hearing healthcare professional approximately every three
to six months or when they become stiff or brittle. Clean
the domes daily with a damp cloth. You should also clean
the slim tubes periodically, with the cleaning pin provided,
when you begin to notice debris in and around the tubes.
To clean the slim tubes and domes:
1. Hold the slim tube in one hand and the hearing
instrument in the other hand.
2. Gently turn the hearing instrument until it detaches
from the slim tube.
3. Use a damp cloth to clean the outside of the slim tube
and the dome.
4. Using the black cleaning pin provided in the kit, gently
insert the cleaning pin where the slim tube attaches to
the hearing instrument and push the pin all the way
through the tube and out through the dome.
Note: The slim tubes and domes should never be rinsed
