Hearing Aid Care
Cleaning Your Hearing Aids
• Use the cleaning brush or soft cloth to clean
debris from around the user control, microphone,
battery compartment, thin tube and earbud.
• Replace the earbud if it becomes misshapen
or no longer fits comfortably in your ear.
• Never use water, solvents, cleaning fluids
or oil to clean your hearing aid.
Cleaning the Thin Tube and Earbud
1. Pull firmly on the earbud until it separates from the thin tube.
2. Unscrew the thin tubing from the tip of the hearing aid.
3. Thread the cleaner through the thin tubing, starting at
the end just removed from the hearing aid until it extends
through to the other end of the tubing. Any debris should
push out the end of the thin tube.

should be pushed on far enough so that the threaded
portion of the thin tube is inside of the earbud.
