Storage
●
Short-term storage (up to several days): Turn off
your hearing aids via the rocker switch or place
them in the powered charger.
The charger must be connected to the power
supply. If the charger is not connected to power
supply and you place your hearing aids in the
charger, the hearing aids are not turned off.
Note that when you turn off the hearing aids via a
remote control or the Miracle-Ear
aids are not turned off completely. They are in
standby-mode and still draw some power.
●
Long-term storage (weeks, months, ...): First, fully
charge your hearing aids. Turn them off via the
rocker switch before storing them. We recommend
using drying products while storing the hearing
aids.
At 6 month intervals you will have to charge
the hearing aids to avoid an unrecoverable
deep-discharge of the power cell. Deep-discharged
power cells cannot be charged anymore and they
have to be replaced. We recommend recharging
more frequently than 6 month intervals.
Observe the storage conditions in section
"Operating, transport and storage conditions".

Ear pieces and tubes
Cerumen (ear wax) may accumulate on the ear pieces.
This may affect sound quality.
●
For hearing aids with a standard tube (ThinTube):
Clean the ear pieces daily, clean the tubes as
required.
Exchange the ear pieces and tubes approximately
every three to six months, or sooner if you notice
cracks or other changes.
●
For hearing aids with earhook:
Clean the ear pieces daily.
Ask your Hearing Care Specialist to clean the tubes or
to exchange the ear pieces and tubes as needed.
Cleaning ear pieces
Clean the
X
ear piece upon
removal with
a soft and dry
tissue.
This prevents
cerumen from
becoming dry
and hardening.
Never use running water or immerse the ear piece in
X
water.
