A few simple precautions can ensure that your hearing aids provide you with trouble-free service for many years.
● Avoid knocking and collision of sharp objects
Sit on a soft surface (bed or sofa) to wear and remove the hearing aid.

● Keep hearing aids away from heat sources
Never place a hearing aid in a place where it may overheat. Avoid direct sunlight (at home or in a parked vehicle) and do not place it around the heater.

● Avoid moisture
Remove the hearing aid before showering, bathing or swimming. Do not put the hearing aid in the bathroom, it may be damaged by water vapor. Wipe the sweat inside and around the ear regularly. Moisture and condensed water droplets can damage the circuitry within the hearing aid. We recommend opening the battery compartment at night and using special tools available from a hearing care professional.

● Keep hearing aids out of reach of children and pets
Dogs do not like the sound of feedback (howling), but are attracted by the smell of the owner, often leading to chewing hearing aids. Hearing aid batteries can be dangerous if swallowed. If the battery is accidentally swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.
