Hearing aids are technologically advanced electronic instruments designed to give you long-term sound pleasure and improved communication ability. Taking care of your hearing instruments is crucial to prolonging its lifespan. Phonak’s latest hearing instruments come with nano-coated Wind-&-Weather protectors to protect the openings of the hearing instrument from environmental wear and tear. These filters need to be replaced on a regular basis.
General tips on caring for your hearing instrument:
- Store your hearing instrument in a ‘drying’ system every night to remove moisture.
- Wipe your hearing instrument regularly with a soft dry cloth to keep any debris from collecting on the outer part of the casing.
- Ears produce wax as part of their natural biological function. Take care to remove any wax or debris to prevent it from entering the openings of the hearing instrument.
- Clean ear moulds with an anti-bacterial, antiseptic cleaner weekly (behind-the-ear models only).
- Visit your Phonak Professional regularly for an on-site mini-cleaning service.
