Professional hearing aid care
in South Australia
At Hearing Matters, we believe that once you find a hearing aid that works for you, it’s important to take care of it. Your hearing aid is likely to need replacing over the years, but with some regular maintenance and cleaning, you can help to maximise the lifespan of your existing device.
Hearing aid care
Here are our top tips for keeping your hearing aid in good condition.
- Keep your hearing aid in a safe place out of reach of small children and pets.
- When not being worn, remove the battery and wipe the aid and battery with a dry cloth. Use a soft brush to clean hard-to-reach areas.
- Place your aid in a Dri-Aid kit to remove any excess moisture.
- Always work over a table or benchtop when removing or inserting a battery.
- Do not drop the aid, expose it to moisture or immerse it in water.
- Avoid excessive heat and cold temperatures. Do not leave the hearing aid exposed in the sun, in a hot car, or near a radiator or heater.
- Do not wear the aid while undergoing electrical treatment or while sitting under a hair dryer.
