INTRODUCTIONTOYOUREAR-SET
Welcome
This ear-set manual introduces you to the use of your ear-set. We advise
you to read the chapter relating to your specific ear-set thoroughly, to learn
about cleaning and changing parts.
NOTE
The ear-sets and specific parts of the ear-sets may not look exactly as illustrated.
We also reserve the right to make any changes considered necessary.
Mounting of receiver and Thin Tube to hearing aid
It applies to all ear-sets that the receiver/Thin Tube must be mounted cor-
rectly to the hearing aid.
Correct mounting
The receiver/Thin Tube must arch away
from the hearing aid.
Wrong mounting
The receiver/Thin Tube must not arch
over the hearing aid.

1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Cleaning
Make sure that the ear-set is always
clean and free of earwax, moisture or
similar. Clean the earwire with the
cloth after use.
You can wash the instant ear-tip in
lukewarm water after having discon-
nected it from the rest of the ear-set.
Allow it to dry overnight.
Do not use any kind of liquid or disinfectant to clean your ear-set.
The receiver must never comeinto contact with water, as this may dam-
age it.
For instructions on how to change the wax guard, see the wax guard sec-
tion.

Using the wax guard
The wax guard helps to protect the hearing aid against earwax. Always use
a Widex wax guard with your hearing aid.
Check on a regular basis that your wax guard has not become blocked with
earwax, in the following way:
First remove the ear-tip from the earwire. If wax has accumulated in the
wax guard, change the wax guard.
Open the wax guard case as illustrated.

The wax guard consists of the following
parts:
1. Holder
2. Removal hook
3. Wax guard
Insert the removal hook into the used wax
guard.
9
Pull the used wax guard straight out.
Turn the holder around.
Insert the new wax guard into the open-
ing of the sound outlet.
Pull the holder straight out. The new wax
guard will automatically detach itself from
the holder. Push the wax guard gently
against a surface to ensure it stays in
place. Push the ear-tip back into place.
