If there is still moisture

in the earmould the next

time you want to use the

hearing aid, use a small

blower or the like to blow

it dry. Never use alcohol

or other cleaning solu-

tions to clean your ear-

mould.

If your earmould tubing becomes slack, stiff, yel-

low or cracked, replace the tubing. For further sup-

plies of tubing consult your hearing care profes-

sional.

Caring for your hearing aid

With proper care, your hearing aid will give you

years of reliable service. Here are some things you

can do to prolong the life of your hearing aid:

Switch your hearing aid off when it is not in

use. Should you not use it for several days, take

out the battery to avoid battery leakage.
Treat your hearing aid as the valuable object it

is: with care. When your hearing aid is not in

use, keep it in its case in a cool, dry location

where it cannot be reached by children or pets.
When not in use, do not expose your hearing

aid to extreme temperatures or high humidity.
In environments with high humidity, a Widex

drying kit may be used daily to reduce the

amount of moisture inside the hearing aid. See

the instructions enclosed with the Widex dry-

ing kit.
