Precautions
We suggest you treat your hearing aid as you would a fine watch. High temperatures can damage the aid, so take care to keep it from the car dashboard or stove.

The following summarizes our suggestions regarding care for your hearing aids:

• Keep hearing aids away from heat and moisture.
• Replace dead batteries immediately.
• Clean hearing aids as instructed.
• Do not use hair spray or other hair care products while wearing hearing aids.
• Turn off hearing aids when they are not in use.
• Keep replacement batteries and small aids away from children and pets.
