Notes for cleaning
and care

It is essential to detach the ear mould from your behind-
the-ear instrument and place it in the cleaning bath for
at least 15 minutes.

Caution: The hearing
instrument itself cannot
tolerate any moisture.

1.

Bring your hearing instru-
ments regularly to your
hearing instrument
specialist, on the schedule
that he or she recommends,
to have the hearing tube
changed and the instru-
ment checked.

2.

Ear wax accumulates on your ear mould. This can lead to
inflammation in your auditory canal if the instruments are
not cleaned regularly. Therefore:

You should place your hearing instruments in a
“dry bag“ with a special moisture-attracting capsule
overnight. The drying capsule draws damaging
moisture out of the instruments.

Your hearing instrument specialist stocks the special
care sets and drying capsules you need to keep
your hearing instrument in good condition.

The best way to handle your
hearing instruments

Your new TRIANO hearing
instruments are highly sensitive
instruments.
This naturally requires some care
in their handling.
They should then always give
you good service.

Caution!
As with all electrical, non gas-encapsulated instruments,
the hearing instruments must not be operated in
explosion-endangered rooms.

Some useful tips:

Never expose your hearing instruments to
extreme temperatures or high humidity.
Never let them lie in the blazing sun. Do not
wear them when taking a shower or when using
hairspray.

In short-wave therapy or if you work or are
medically treated with strong magnetic or
high-frequency fields or X-rays, under no
circumstances may you wear the instruments
during the therapy.

Make sure to switch off the instruments when
not in use. This saves the batteries.

If you don’t wear your instruments for a longer
time, remove the batteries. Batteries can leak
out. Replace batteries that have leaked out
immediately.
