In The Ear (ITE) Hearing Aid Maintenance 

• To turn the hearing aid on, close the battery cover and push it up-wards. The hearing aid will play a sound signal to indicate that it is on, unless your hearing care professional has deactivated this function.
• To turn off the hearing aid, push the battery cover downwards.
• You can also cup the hearing aid in your hand to verify that it is turned on. If it's on, it will whistle.
• Don't forget to turn off the hearing aid when it is not in use.  

Specific instructions may vary depending on the exact model of your hearing aid. Consult manual or give us a call if in doubt.

The Widex wax guard helps to protect the hearing aid against earwax. Always use Widex wax guards with your hearing aid. Otherwise the guarantee for your hearing aid will be void. 

• To change the wax guard insert the removal hook into the used wax guard keeping the holder at a right angle and then pulling the used wax guard straight out.
• Insert the new wax guard into the opening of the sound outlet and press it gently.
• Remember that the wax guard is for one-time use only and is not intended to be cleaned.
