Hearing aid users should master some simple maintenance methods to reduce the incidence of hearing aid failure and ensure that the hearing aid can provide you with longer service.

1. Avoid soiling the hearing aid

Keep your hands clean and dry before operating the hearing aid. The opening of the microphone is only tens of millimeters wide, and it is easy to be blocked by impurities and dust. The hearing aid with microphone protective film should be replaced regularly.

2. Shockproof

Hearing aid is a kind of precise electronic equipment. The components on its chip are relatively fragile and should be properly protected. It is recommended to sit on a soft surface (bed or sofa) when wearing and removing hearing aids.

3. Keep away from heat sources

Never place hearing aids where they may overheat. Avoid direct sunlight (at home) and don't put it around the heating.

4. Moistureproof

Remove hearing aids before washing, bathing or swimming. Don't put hearing aids in the bathroom, it may be damaged by water vapor. Regularly wipe the sweat inside and around the ear. Moisture and condensed water droplets can damage the circuit in the hearing aid. We recommend opening the battery compartment every night and putting it in the drying box or electronic care kit. Never use other electric heater to dry it, because the temperature of the electric heater cannot be controlled, which will damage the hearing aid. It is absolutely forbidden to put it into the microwave oven!

5. Keep away from children and pets

Dogs don't like the sound (whistling) from hearing aids, but they are attracted by the smell of their owners, which often leads to chewing hearing aids. It is dangerous if the hearing aid battery is swallowed by a child. If the battery is accidentally swallowed, seek medical advice immediately.

6. Cleaning hearing aids

Clean the hearing aid with a soft dry cloth. Do not use alcohol, solvents and cleaning fluids as they can damage electronic circuits. Keep your ears clean. If the sound of the hearing aid decreases, it may be that the sound hole is blocked by earwax or dirt.

7. Keep hearing aids in a safe place

When the hearing aid is not in use, it should be placed in the packaging box or special dry box to prevent loss. When not in use for a long time, the battery should be taken out.

8. Maintenance

Do not disassemble or disassemble the hearing aid without authorization. Please ask a professional to repair the failure.
