Maintenance Tips
Just follow these simple guidelines to protect your Miracle-Ear hearing aid system from everyday wear and tear:
- Thoroughly clean your hearing aid daily with a dry cloth.
- Never immerse your hearing aid in water. Do not wear it while taking a bath or shower or while swimming. Do not expose it to excessive moisture of any kind.
- Never apply hair spray while wearing hearing aids.
- Do not expose your hearing aid to excessive heat, such as a stove or open fire.
- Unless you're wearing the hearing aid at the time, do not expose it to extreme cold (0 degrees or less F)
- Avoid dropping your hearing aid on hard surfaces.
- When not in use, remove the battery and store your hearing aid in the case provided by your Miracle-Ear representative.
- Put away hearing aids and batteries, out of reach of pets and children.
How to Clean Your Hearing Aid
- Wipe your hearing aid or earmold and tubing every day with a clean, soft cloth.
- Clean the receiver and vent openings with an appropriate wax removal tool, available at your local Miracle-Ear Hearing Aid Center. Make sure you received proper instruction from the Miracle-Ear representative to prevent damage to your receiver.
- We recommend you clean your hearing aid daily with a disinfectant wipe or tissue sprayed with disinfectant, which you can find at your local Miracle-Ear Hearing Aid Center.
Battery Care
- When you remove your hearing aids, turn them off. If they don't have an on/off switch, then turn them off by opening the battery door.
- Remove the battery at night, or whenever the hearing aid is not used for an extended period, and store the aid in a cool, dry place.
- Keep the battery compartment clean and dry.
- Always wipe the battery clean before inserting.
- Discard used batteries carefully in a place where they cannot come into contact with infants, small children, pets or others who might accidentally swallow them.
