Hearing Aid Wax Guard Filters Replacement for CIC, ITC, ITE, RIC Users
Category: phonak hearing aid accessories
The ear wax guard filter for hearing aids is specifically engineered to prevent ear wax, dust, grease, and moisture from obstructing the devices. Depending on individual ear canal conditions, these filters should be replaced weekly to monthly. As ear canals differ among individuals, it is crucial to replace the filter before it becomes fully clogged with ear wax or dust. Failing to do so may result in a blocked speaker in the hearing aid.
This filter is compatible with MOST CIC, ITC, ITE, and RIC (RITE or RIE) hearing aids from reputable brands like Phonak, Widex, Unitron, MD Hearing, Hearing Assist, and some models from Resound, Beltone, and Oticon. However, it is important to note that it is NOT compatible with Signia or Starkey hearing aids. If you need confirmation regarding compatibility, feel free to click "Ask a question" on our Amazon storefront page.
Here’s how to replace the wax guards:
- Start by taking a stick from the box. The top of this stick is designed for removal, while the end holds a new wax filter ready for installation.
- Insert the removal end into the original wax guard. Gently twist and pull to detach the wax guard, then dispose of it.
- Next, take the end of the stick that has the new wax guard and gently insert it into the opening where the original wax guard was removed.
- The new wax guard will automatically detach from the holder and stay in place. Occasionally, you may need to assist in separating the new ear wax guard from the stick using your fingernail.
- For a visual reference, you can consult the picture guide provided.
